RR Yep, fat side down. He says there is plenty of fat marbled through the lean and cooking fat up just makes it greasy.

I have the same opinion of the Traeger now that I've tasted food cooked on one. You may as well cook in teh oven and be inside.  (No offence Cat) While I don't like overwhelming smoke, I do like some. He has spent LOTS of money insulating his and putting the Guru temp control on it, but still has to babysit it to keep the temp stable.

By many standards I cheat with an electric smoker, but I do get smoke flavor. I cook briskets at 215-225 for 4 hours unwrapped and then 4 more at the same temp wrapped. He does not wrap his at all. 275 sounds WAY too hot to me.

I guess when it's all said and done, we each have a cooking method and flavor profile that fits us and our friends. Now I know what I like will never be a competion winner. As long as I enjoy cooking, and my family and friends enjoy eating what I cook, I will feel like a Grand National Champ. I hope we all feel that way.
