This last weekend I picked up an Angus, 10 Lbs brisket from RD. I trimmed the fat cap side down to the quarter inch. There was little to trim on the fat cap side. I then trimmed the opposite side fairly clean of fat.i trimmed out the wedge of fat between the point area and the flat as well. Cooked on my stick burner per Bludawg's numbers to the "butter" pierce feel and it felt very tender which seemed to temp at about 205°... Result; Awesome taste. Very tender but a little dry (not bad). Bottom line is it seemed a bit lean in the point but of coarse more so in the flat. Question; Does a 10 Lbs brisket have less tendency to produce a fattier (moist) end product than a 15 Lbs brisket???
