How big of a brisket will it hold ?

There is 3 racks/shelves so you could put one on each shelf. I would guess you could get 25 pounds in there total, maybe more.

You can put as big a brisket in the Orion as you want depending on how you cut it and put it on the racks. I have even cut up 3 16 pound briskets between the point and flat and put two flats and one point in one Orion and the other two points and one flat in another using all three racks in each. Four and a half hours later, I was feeding a small army and everyone was raving about the brisket!

The horizontal rack is about 14" in diameter should be a guide. I've cooked chickens and pork shoulders in the 10 lb range.

This is what my husband says...I don't make sausage batches that large, so I don't know for sure. I think it would be difficult to get a quality mix when completely full because you don't want to overwork the meat. It can hold 25 lbs, but wont function as intended.

I did not measure this puppy, but I have a four burner BBQ with side burner and it is way big enough. Almost to big....

I don't know the largest it will hold, but I smoked a 16 pound turkey last Thanksgiving in it, and there was room to spare on the sides and top. So, 16+ pounds. Final answer. :-)

I think it will. If it is not real big. I think it would hold a 5 or 6 lb one. Have not cooked one but I believe it would be good. Just be sure to rub some oil on the sides and it will be easier to clean. I have cooked stew and beef roast. Both were very good. Cooked them at about 250 like a slow cooker for about 6 hrs. Hope this helps.

I have placed a 12lb turkey and a 10lb ham on one rack and it worked just fine. I don't see you over loading the racks while leaving air space around the meat for smoke. I hope you enjoy yours as much as me and my family has enjoyed ours.

Probably won't hold a big ham but I think the bone shank will be fine. Mine is not programmable just normal temp setting from very low to very high. I have 3! One in my camper and two in the house. It is myost used appliance and the food tast so much better than in a crock pot. I do not like crock pots. U will love this appliance.

Absolutely! just a word of advise, use a propane torch to light the pellets, keep the torch on the pellets for about 45 sec. Then let them burn for 10 min. You will get more smoke if you let them burn and develop a good ash. Also, best used at 275° or under witch is perfect for a shoulder or brisket. The pellets won't burn at higher temps.

I have found that a 5 gal plastic bucket (Lowe's has them for a couple dollars) works very well. The high sides keeps the meat contained. From there, I place the meat in pans for serving, additional smoking, or adding sauce. Don't shred too long or meat turns to mush. Good luck!

That would depend on the size (dimensions) of container the ground beef is packed in.

I did 2 10lb pork shoulders in it. That's all I would put in it to keep the meat higher away from the fire box. I also hung 10lbs of sausage on hooks and finished up 2 brisket points for burnt ends at the same time. To have enough room for taller items you won't use all the racks it comes with. I can't think of anything I would have in there where all the racks would be useful.

I can't be sure but I think this will hold that size of turkey. I have been so very pleased with my roaster. All the others have surfaces that get damaged with time of cooking in them. This has been a great addition to my kitchen. I do all kinds of roasts in mine.

You would be pushing it just a bit. I believe you may have to get an extra rack. It comes with 3. Four full size ribs won't fit on one rack. But maybe two briskets can fit on one rack? Ultimately it will work. Just may need the extra rack!

The pan holds a lot more than 1lb but you could try shaping it into a short, thick rectangle and by placing it into the middle of the pan and not spreading the meat out to the edges it would probably be fine, otherwise it would be too flat and probably not as juicy or may even turn out dry.

A full size pallet will not fit inside of it. I use mine to store 5 gallon buckets of pellets and chips for my smoker and it handles the weight fine (about 12 buckets).

I put mine in steaks in a 500 degree grill. It will probably hold up in an oven as well.

Yeah, I would say that's about the size of the grill top. I could definitely imagine it handling 5 rows of 5 burgers.
