Looks great to me! How did you feel about the butcher paper wrap?

Did it come out like you wanted it to?

It turned out good..My wife says I'm my worst critic because I thought it was dry but she said it wasn't. Just got to a place where I could post so I'll let you be the judge. I was real happy with the smoke ring and flavor profile and most of the slices, but the few dry slices aggravated me.

Btw, I will wrap everything in butcher paper from now on, whether resting or pressing through a stall.

Sorry for the hijack...but I thought CAB(certified angus beef) was a grade a bit above just plain choice. I'm confused as to why you had to "settle" on CAB

Wanted a whole brisket, had to settle with just a flat. Definitely not complaining that it was CAB.

That's an amazing smoke ring! My first brisket will be this weekend on my BGE. I hope it's as good as that!

My plan is to cook it low and slow on the Lang 84, over pecan, with a combo of Kosmo's beef injection and the Plowboy's Bovine Bold as my rub. I'm leaning towards fat cap down, but am open to fat cap up in case it might help with the moisture content and the reverse flow offset will protect from flames anyway. I do plan to try the butcher paper wrap at 170, after reading so many posts by Funk and others. Anyways, I'm looking for any suggestions so as to not dry out a $40 piece of meat!

Thanks in advance bro's.

Please do not do the paper wrap.. I do not want to be blamed for the other problems that will contribute to a dried out brisket. You have a lot of strikes against you.

Hold it... why is a flat costing you 40 bucks... like CAB means anything to justify its cost anyway.

Q-Dat · 03-04-2011, 11:20 AM

I am curious to hear what the strikes are against his process. I may be making the same mistakes.
