Found some matches.
I was at Cash n' Carry yesterday and picked up some pellets for the MAK smoker, a CAB brisket to cook this weekend, and on a whim a large container of dried porcini mushrooms. I've heard good things about ground porcini powder on steaks and beef. Last night I ground some of the mushrooms into a meatloaf I made and it really kicked up the flavor profile.
Now I am thinking about applying it to the brisket. My quick and dirty brisket rub has been equal parts Montreal Steak Seasoning and chili powder. It's made some really successful briskets. Now I'm thinking about replacing the chili powder with porcini powder and see where it gets me.
Is this a great idea? A terrible idea? Has anyone used porcini powder as a foundation for a rub before? Or will low and slow destroy the flavor? Any thoughts are appreciated. If the porcini brisket is a go I will take pics and report back.
