I've smoked other meats both with water and clay saucers in the pan and have found the saucer to work better at maintaining and reaching temperature and noticed little to no difference in moisture of meat.
However, after watching a BBQ with Franklin YouTube vid, I noticed he put a small bowl of water in his off set smoker, saying it helps keep the brisket moist, and so now I am wondering whether to use water in the pan for brisket - which will be British and likely to be a bit skimpy on the fat compared to the more expensive Aussie and USDA packers.
Any experienced guys out there got any advice or can share experience?
Brisket in a WSM 47cm - clay saucer or water in the pan??
I've been searching for an earlier thread on this, but can't seem to find one. So hope I haven't doubled up.
Thanks in advance
