I cooked a brisket...
It's been about 10 months since I've cooked a brisket.
I started out with a 15 lb. brisket that was aged for 30 days. When I took it out of the cryo it wasn't pretty, with a strange shaped point and some random pices that needed to be trimmed off.   The fat cap was also pretty thick in some areas...  It cleaned up pretty well and I gave it a nice coating of Plowboys Bovine Bold...  I put it into the FEC-100 at 6:00am...  Once the bark was the color that I like I foiled it with some Basic Beer Mop from Smoke and Spice (for those who like to foil by internal temp, it happened to be 160)...  It probed tender a couple of hours later (the internal temp was 195 for you internal temp fans  ). I let it rest in a cooler for a couple of hours and then sliced it for dinner. I didn't get a pic of the finished brisket but I built a mock competition box... It was juicy and tender and had a great flavor. It may have been a hair past perfect, but I was very happy with the result.

I like to rub a vinegar/oil blend on my fat before the seasoning. It helps the fat break down and hold the spice on.
Looks good! |

I've played with all sorts of slathers, oils, etc. and find that I get the best flavor and bark by rubbing in advance (a couple of hours) and letting the rub rehydrate on the meat directly.

I'm letting mine rest as I type. Wanted to try out a couple things. It will make for dinner plates for the week. Brisket has gotten crazy expensive here.
That looks great Ron! I'd hit it! Bob
