Full Fledged Farker
OK, I have a native Texan staying at the house for 4 days!
She grew up in the Tex-Mex environment of San Antonio and in the heart of Texan BBQ, in Austin!
I had to pull together an awesome dish to match those expectations up here in IL.
I thought about it and decided to cook my first packer brisket from Sam's.
I got a 15 pounder and seasoned it for 24hrs using BlueDog's 333 method (1/3rd cup salt then pepper and garlic powder).
Then, after 24 hours, I washed off the 333 and covered it in Big Ron's HOH and worchester.
I fired up the UDS with red bag (USA) RO lump and mesquite chunks and let er rip. it cooked for 12 hours as we slept. The maverick woke me up 3 times to tend to temp issues and foiling at 167F.
And into the cooler
2.5 hours later (in cooler)
My super sharp (BBQ Pit Boys) "Old Hickory" knife kicked butt. I just pressed it down thru the meat and she sliced like buddah
And now for the scary part. How does it stand up to a native Texan who's first food was refried beans and who eats Austin BBQ regularly????
SCORE!!!!!!!
Thanks Big Ron!!
Guess what we had for breakfast?!?
