Beautiful weather this weekend after nearly a week of rain, so I wanted to get some meat on the smoker. The brisket is an 12 lb USDA prime from Costco that looked exceptionally well marbled compared to some of the others....cant believe these are priced at $2.99/lb. They also had cryovacs of Swift baby back ribs on Dale at $2.99/lb plus $4 off per package. It contained 3 slabs and I chose the meatiest one to do today. I don't buy baby backs very often but I found it interesting that the membranes were already removed. Usually, at least with their St Louis style spares, I still have to do that.
Anyhow, I separated the point from the flat and will cube it for burnt ends...the flat will obviously be sliced. I used EAT Barbecue "The Most Powerful Stuff" on the beef and "Zero to Hero" on the pork. I am using Lumberjack hickory pellets in the Traeger. This is the first time I've done a brisket on the pellet smoker...so far it's only been pork butts and chicken. Here's to hoping it comes out well.
