When you serve it, wear a blue shirt and red suspenders and keep saying "I ga-ron-tee!" repeatedly.

I say season it with your favorite creole seasoning, smoke it til you like the color, and then transfer to a foil pan with some chopped onion, celery, bell pepper, and garlic. Then continue to cook until its done.
Note: Creole seasonings such as Tony Chachere are great, but they are not rubs! They are SEASONED SALTS! So many times people accuse them of being way too salty. Thats because they try to use it as heavily as a rub. Put it on as if it were salt! |

Interesting idea, but, I was always lead to believe, by both food historians and local folks I knew who grew up in Louisiana, that there is no real BBQ tradition specific to Louisiana, that most of the folks BBQ like the neighnoring states that had stronger traditions. Such as Texas in the west and north, and southern, like Mississippi and Alabama. That the southern areas, being more heavily influence by French and West Indies cultures, tended towards other preparations. It would seem to me, if you want to prepare something, go with brisket and lean the rub towards a little more spice and herbs than normal.
Another thing you could do is smoke the brisket and pan it for the last few hours, going with some celery, onions and bell peppers in the pan to add that aromatic sense so common to Southern Louisiana cooking. If it was me, which it will be in a week, I would smoke a chuck roast or three and make it into a dish similar to grillades. OOPS, simulpost with Q-Dat

the pork to stand on its own. |

Louisiana isn't known for BBQ therefore there is no "Cajun" way to smoke brisket. I would smoke it until the color is right then place in an alum pan with onions, bell peppers, celery and garlic. If you can get Abita Amber beer use that as the liquid in the pan. If not any dark beer will do. Cover and place back on the smoker until probe tender. Then shred and make poboys. That will be about as Cajun as you can get. Also if you can get some boudin, you could smoke that and serve it as a side dish, or make boudin poboys or boudin burittos. Good luck and post some pics.
