New guy from North Idaho

[Steve S]

I wandered in yesterday, following a link about cooking for a crowd. I'm 50-something and relatively new to smoking. I am preparing food for 150 people next weekend for my daughter's wedding. Planning to cook approximately 20 lbs of brisket and 60 lbs of pork butts. Any suggestions greatly appreciated.

2 - 22 WSM'S

Steve,
Welcome and enjoy your time here. Make sure to check out the section dealing with catering, a lot of great info there about cooking for a crowd.
Try to get yourself a helper so that you can enjoy your daughters big day!!

 

[Steve S]

Thank you. I've got myself a helper for the final push. Cooking on the WSM'S is pretty idiot proof once all the prep is done, IMHO. I had to pick up a second one for this event.
