Hello,
Would I have any issues smoking (4) 12 pound briskets on this smoker? Does is cause any temp. issues?
Thanks
I have had 12 large pork butts on my 640. I have never done multiple briskets, but I don't think you would have a problem getting 4 on the cooker. As always, when you fill any cooker up, you may want to consider rotating the meat to even out the cooking.

I did three briskets this weekend. Two 14lbs on the bottom and one 12 on the top. The cook time was no different than if I did one brisket. I rotated the bottom briskets one time. The 12lbs brisket was done earlier, but not by much. Remember, the top rack runs cooler so I would suggest putting your smaller briskets up top if you cook multiple. I could have done 4 14lbs in the cooker if I wanted too.
