The Perfect Day
 

It's Memorial Day. It's 72 degrees, the birds are chirping, the brisket was 1.99 a lb., my family is healthy (and dogs:wink:), and I'm remembering my friends that died while we were overseas (I'm a disabled vet). Basically, if you don't know how awesome it is to be an American, you truly are ignorant. I've lived and fought all over this earth and nobody has it like we do, not even close. Thank God and thank a vet today or I'll punch you in the face :wink:.

Now let's start cooking a brisket that defies all BBQ brethren rules. I go low and slow and cook to temp. I will challenge anyone to a brisket tasting contest and dust your behind guaranteed :razz:!!! Don't knock it until you try it!

Pics to follow....

The trim and rub

The setup

Set up looks pretty dang good to me Sir. And thank you.

Have a GREAT day. Thank you for your service!

Not gonna question you today. Besides ninja follow no rules. Your right, we are blessed. I can whine and complain about whatever I want. .......... As long as you and your friends are standing behind me with your rifles.

Thanks for your service and a toast to those who never returned home.

God bless you brethren too!

1.99 brisket, unheard of around here!

Choice grade too, probably should have been graded prime if truth be told :wink:

Thanks for your service. Nice lookin guard you have for the brisket.

I'm pretty pissed at my Backwoods. It's dropped 2 degrees the last 2 hours. Unacceptable!

Thanks! She's a retired 3-time Reserve Grand Champion harlequin Dane. Damn good dog and pretty too.

So, what is your target I.T? Looking good so far. Thank you sir for defending our freedom from all who would like to take it away!!!!! SALUTE

Smoke 3-4 hours, wrap until 200 give or take, when it feels right

Tastes pretty darn good!
