Keep in mind that you are trying to pack as much flavor into 1 bite as possible. It's all about 1 bite.
The other thing is, don't try something that might offend someone. Maybe offend is the wrong word here, but pick flavors that blend well. A judge shouldn't pick up on 1 distinct flavor.

I thought the same thing until I cooked a brisket for some family a few weeks ago without injection.
It does make a difference. I follow the instructions on the package but I know many people play around with the ratios

Thanks BBQr's Delight. I will be in Wynne for sure, and more than likely Fort Smith. I will take you up on the offer to taste! There is going to be a contest in Russellville in August, it was added later than most of the others, but I am hoping for good turn out in my hometown!

PHarp,
Quick tip for injection testing on a brisket. If you don't want to cook two briskets to do a side by side, then try injecting just one half of the brisket. That way you can taste the injected versus the non injected and make your determination. Good luck, Robert |

Thanks Robert, I will try that this weekend. I just bought a cheap packer from Wal-Mart to practice on. The package says 3/4 a cup of injection and 2 cups of water fro two briskets. I am wondering if a lot of people use that amount for just one brisket.

While I'm not a sponsored team, I do use his prime brisket injection in comps. I mix it at the rate of 1/3 cup to 12oz of bottled water for one brisket, hope this helps a little. |

Thanks! That seems like a good amount for one brisket.

Seems like that could be a bit underwhelming in flavor for injection. Interested in your thoughts on that. I don't do well in brisket so I'm soaking up all knowledge about it!

As far as flavor, I'm using it more for the phosphates, I get my flavor from the wrapping/juices. I think the biggest thing you should take away from this lesson, is the sooner you wrap the more of the flavor you'll get from the injection as opposed to wrapping later...this is something you'll have to decide on what you want in your brisket. Remember I'm not a brisket expert, I just ocasionally get a call. |

I've used just about all the injections on the market over time (though I'd pay close attention to what Robert said above, that's the way to test one). I love Butcher's stuff and that's my go-to pork injection, but I use 2 tablespoons for 16 oz water or juice. Had an unfortunate experience where full-strength pork injection made like mucus pockets in the meat. It was at the Butt-to-Butt in 2007 and one of the judges told me about it. Checked my meat, yep, it was mine. To this day I check pork for suspicious emissions before it goes in the box.

I don't think I knew you were a rep now. Do you like to travel to upper midwest? We could use some good reps up in these parts.
