Retirement Brisket.

[deathamphetamine]

Its 4 a.m. Starting to prep a brisket. I was hoping to be doing an inaugural cook on a Vision Kamado. Alas I was to late yesterday, they sold out... So until next friday I wait.:mad2: But I will cook this on my old trusted ECB for the last time, for she will be retired from my hands to be enjoyed by a new guy, wandering around looking for match light.

Got it on at 5, should be in time for dinner, this is the biggest Brisky I have tackled. ECB settled in at about 230, R.O. And some nice chunks of mesquite. Rubbed with montreal steak spice, garlic, parmesan and some chili flakes... i can`t wait!

Looks like they mis-labeled that fresh brisket as corned beef brisket? It looks like a great retirement dinner to me.

Heck it could be could be hot dogs and I would be happy if I was retiring !

Added more coal at 9:00 am, temperature rose to 250 after that and held till noon and is still holding. The brisky seems to be right on schedule! :clap2:

Plus some Crown floats at high noon for my neighbor (who I turned on to smoking) and I. The floats didn`t turn out,.... toooooo much Guinness Goodness.

Looks like you nailed it!

Looks like you nailed it!

Yes it cooked superbly, although the rub was pretty much drowned right out. The meat was so flavorful. I guess the Parmesan rub will be kept for ribs. Although I am getting my rotisserie out of storage today... maybe a parmesan rubbed prime rib? ... Yeah sounds good.
