Brisket Cook - It's been a while...
Just realized it's been about 11 months since my last brisket. I was cooking about one per month for a while, but I guess life got in the way a little. Costco had Prime packers $10 off last week, so I picked up a 18 lb'r and cooked it up today. It was cold overnight, 16* when I got up at 7:30am, but the Assassin held temps steady all night. Trimmed about 4.5 lbs of fat and salted the day before. Seasoned with Garlic powder and Pepper. Smoked it 7 hours at 255* - 260* with Oak and Mesquite. Wrapped in butcher paper and cooked another 5 or so hours. Then rested in a cooler for about 4 hours. Was maybe a tad over, but was happy with the results. Not gonna wait so long for the next one...

Ready to be wrapped... https://scontent.fpit1-1.fna.fbcdn.n...5c&oe=5EEED2DB It's done. Gonna wrap for a cooler nap. Pic shows how the brisket still develops some bark while wrapped in butcher paper... https://scontent.fpit1-1.fna.fbcdn.n...e7&oe=5EECB934 Rested and ready to slice... https://scontent.fpit1-1.fna.fbcdn.n...cf&oe=5EBA97C4 Need a better knife... https://scontent.fpit1-1.fna.fbcdn.n...69&oe=5F011094 https://scontent.fpit1-1.fna.fbcdn.n...85&oe=5EECFA5B https://scontent.fpit1-1.fna.fbcdn.n...09&oe=5EF06801 Brisket, Mac n Cheese, Beans & Slaw... https://scontent.fpit1-1.fna.fbcdn.n...00&oe=5EF3BCBA I guess it's a good sign when you serve Brisket for 8 and this is all the sauce that is used. Guess I made too much... https://scontent.fpit1-1.fna.fbcdn.n...91&oe=5EEF8CDB Thanks you looking!!! |

A good sign of excellence is how little "sauce" is used, no one wants to cover the flavor!! |
That's a beautiful brisket, I don't think anything about that looks over.
