They turned out great and only took 3.5 hours to cook.
Made 2 x 3#ers - 1 was made with McCormick's Montreal Steak rub - middle photo (it was alright) but I thought the other one with good ol' dalamation rub tasted better (1st pic on the left).
Overall though, I can see why this is called "Poor Man's Brisket" as the flavor just isn't as rich and deep as brisket. Not bad and I would make it again (I didn't want to cook it too soft for pulled beef since the wife and I are doing keto so no bread for sammies ) considering the quick turnaround time and low cost.
However, I'd spend the money for the brisket and doing a H&F brisket is only a few more hours for better payoff IMO. :biggrin1:
Yes, there's a bit of sugar free bbq sauce on the plate. :Blasphemy: Yeah, I don't care - I miss BBQ sauce and G Hughes Smokehouse Sugar Free hickory sauce is pretty tasty.
