Thread: Smoke ring

Do the electric smokers leave a smoke ring. I had an ol wood smoker with firebox on one end and a chimney smoker on the other that left the best smoke rings. It was very hard to cook with because it was so hard to control the temp and required constant tending. I switched to a Primo ceramic smoker and it cooks beautifully with constant temp and minimum tending but no smoke ring. Don't know what the green eggs do but I was curious about the electrics.

I get smoke rings with my Masterbuilt....i put the chips in dry and almost close the chimney off. Cooks the best brisket i have ever done.

I should have asked what kind of wood chips if any do you use !!! then I would suggest if you do use wood chips to soak them real good , that way they would give a lot more smoke and that might get the ring you are looking for !!! just a thought !!!

I add a couple of 4"x 4" red oak chunks to the charcoal.

I get great rings with my green egg.

I'm probably doing something wrong, but I have smoked several flat briskets on the masterbuilt and never get a smoke ring. They still turn out good all the same, I believe next time I will try my smoke tube.
