Cooking?

[tommykendall]

I rubbed a 12# brisket down real good with head country about an hour ago. Figure I'll fire up the cooker between 6 and 7am tomorrow. Think I'll cook it with hickory, pecan, and a hint of mesquite. This is my first brisket since moving to CA. No DP this time - trying something different.

I finally bought a brisket. I'm going to cook it on Monday. Looking forward to spending the whole day with it.

Man spending his whole day with meat - I resemble that in many respects. This might belong in "you know you're a brethren when"...

Damn - the 'dera is completely prepped and ready to rumble. All I gotta do is light the paper underneath the chimney sitting in the firebox and bring it to temp. l'll never stay awake though - Mary knows. 6:00am is better for me.

I'll be smoking a 7# flat on Sunday. Today it's gonna be a 4# tri-trip.

Brisket is doing fine after 2.5 hours. The hickory smells so farking good out there. The neighbors are gonna die later when the sweet smell of that meat starts billowing out of the stack combined with the hickory smoke.

No Hickory trees in Long Beach.

I did see a big bottle of Liquid Smoke & a crock pot on his kitchen counter.




Tommy, your pants are on fire.

TK shamed me into smoking. Put a 12 lb packer on about 4 AM. It was in the mid 40's outside, so I had no trouble waking up.

Cooking fat side down again, using Jim Goode's rub, and a mix of mesquite, hickory, and pecan.

Fatties for breakfast and the Jalapeno/Cheese sausage goes on for lunch in a little while.

No neighbors offering to sniff yet though

I'm good at that.

My 12# brisket rubbed with head country came out really nice. Might never bother with DP marinade again. Kept the cooking temps under 235 all day. Took every bit of 13 hours. The turd was devoured earlier today by my OL's family. They're filipino and they didn't even eat it with rice...

 

[Samichlaus]

What's DP marinade?

 

[tommykendall]

Dr. Pepper marinade - see recipe files
