Signature Brisket

3/6/04...Today I am doing a "Signature" Brisket, BBR and big Pot of beans.

Brisket is 11.52 lbs. I cut cross lines in the fat cap and bottom ( figured it works great for ham , so why not brisket) Using "Head Country Seasoning", Mustard and Fresh groung pepper. This is the best smelling brisket I have ever done, so far, smelled like it is ready to eat raw!

BBR are coated with Head Country, honey, small ammount of mustard, fresh ground pepper and a very small amount of Southern Comfort Black.

Beans, well what ever I can find to add to Bush Baked Beans. The BBR will drip into Beans and will be above heat sheild.

Grilled country ribs for the 'imatic. And of course Smoked and grilled Spam( we had cooked Spam sammages for dinner last night....Goood!).

Fresh Hot Bolder Itailian grilled for snacks.

Drink of the day "Bloody Ceasar"

Saw mustard and ground pepper somewhere in brisket prep, thought I'd give it a try. We'll see!

Status report, me and the brisket are getting smoked. Me and my pal ate about half of the beans, farking good is a big understatement.

Results:

I wish I had been with Bill at the juding class so I could be a better judge of this cook. These BBR were the best I have ever had any where. Slight bite tug and the meat came clenaly off the bone........oh so good. I had some honey that was almost sugar that I poured on e'm and a small ammount of mustard, ground pepper, Head Country rub, smoked above heat sheild then into foil, mopped with Head Country BBQ sauce.......What can I say but Farking Heaven.

These Beans are the best ever.

Brisket, did Okholma Joe thing, seperated the Point and Flat after Flat rached 172F, foiled and into the cooler, Point back into smoke for another 4 hrs. The point was way better (awsome) than the flat.....flat had lots of juice but was too chewie, not dry, just not "eat without teef" good like one of my best......Brisket is an art form...IMHO was 37F and very windy! :roll:

Forgot to mention, the 'amatic said the grilled country ribs were good and the grilled span outstanding!
