I keep a running log of my cooks in a Word document. Here is a sample of my last cook on my MAK:
#61 Cook – Pulled Beef – Saturday, April 28, 2018 Pellets: CookinPellets Hickory
Coated chuck roasts (bought at Costco) with homemade brisket rub and put on smoker at 250F. 1.5 hours
later flipped the roasts. After 3 hours total cooking time, brought roasts inside in full sheet pan and filled
with 32oz of warmed beef broth. Covered with foil and back on smoker. Cooking between 2-3 hours until IT
reaches 195F (took off after 2.5 hours).
I number my cooks, what was cooked, the date, and what pellets. Also, the temp of the smoker and how long I cooked.
