Been smoking for a while, but could never find a full packer brisket or a brisket point here in eastern Mass. Can only seem to find just flats.

Anyway, on Wednesday I stumbled across just a point so I bought it. Smoked it Sunday. Excellent.

First pic is when it reached 202°. Still needed more rendering. Second pic is after a couple more hours on the cooker. I ate way too many of them. Melts away in your mouth like cotton candy, but tastes like cow.

Looking good! A proper burnt-end if my favorite piece of cow.

Thx all. Yeah, I don't think I could have done any better.

Here's a reheated single burnt end tonight. Cow brownie.

Good on you for knowing it wasn't ready no matter what the temp was, Pete!:thumb:
