Knows what a fatty is.
My half dozen brisket attempts have been the same approach: Costco-Prime/12 -14 pounds pre-trim weight/250-275 temp/12-15 hours/top rack WSM with some really good portions and some dry portions of the meat.
For the heck of it I want to try and bring my cook times down - 8 to 10 hours might be a game changer for me in terms of avoiding overnight cooks and timing for meal time. I see others mention cooking smaller briskets and/or fast-and-hot so this seems doable with good results, right?
For the price I can't beat Costco Prime - everything else seems a dumb move cost wise. Even though I'd love to see if Choice produces similar results, not gonna pay more when I can get the prime.
Am I going to have really good brisket doing the following:
- 300 - 325 on the WSM;
- 9 to 10 pound brisket pre-trimmed
- might experiment with wrapping for the first time since I expect a smaller brisket to be pretty thin in the flat.
Steer me... :-D
