Hey all. I've been cooking on my Stumps Baby XL for about a year and half now. Had an Off-set stick B4 that. Love it and it is a great pit! Looking for some recommendations on brisket and burnt ends. First off, I usually cook my briskets fat cap down. Wonder what most of you all do? I've done burnt ends a couple times now. They have turned out way to chewy for my tastes. I've been separating the flat from the point after trimming. Wonder what others do? Cooking it whole first.........and then separating the two may be preferred (and recommended by Myron Mixon, etc) but then you have the issue of no bark on the bottom of the point, or top of the flat. Hmmm. This last go-around, wrapped both at 170 and took off at 203. Flat was dry (had to use choice cut instead of the normal prime Costco as they were out). That may have some impact on the outcome.
And, do you have any resting time for the point before cubbing? I like to rest my brisket 3-4 hours after it comes down to 180 temp.
Anyway, curious as to how most of you do your burnt ends! Always trying to improve. To make great brisket, you need to cook bad brisket. Think this was one of those times
Thanks much "guys"
