Hot and fast wsm brisket live cook

[jsmorrow2s]

Went into sams club yesterday looking to do some ribs. Lo and behold they were out. But they had prime whole packards on sale, so my dad will have to settle for brisket on his birthday

Trimmed it last night and then injected. And yes I separated flat from point. Seasoned this morning with spg and then hit it again with Weber’s “cowboy” seasoning. It’s been on since 0415. Hoping for a total cook time of no more than 6 hrs.

I have the 22” wsm running as hot as it can on a full chimney of lit charcoal and WITHOUT a water pan. All vents are wide open. Exhaust is wide open as well. No wind. However, outside temp is 32° so it’s not quite as hot as I wanted. We shall see.

I will update as much as I can

Betting around 7:15 it'll be time to wrap, put a full packer on at 4:15 myself then went back to bed, it doesn't need to be done until dinner. Finishing my 1st cup then throwing a fatty on for a little morning snacking.

Great minds think alike lol and yes! We’re knocking on the door to wrapping

Wrapped with left over injection, Kosmo beef mop, butter, honey, and more rub. Back on the pit until probe tender plus 20 minutes. Will also be throwing on some beans in lower grate to help lower temps

It was good lol good enough for the baby to say “mmmmmmm yum yum” after her first bite lol and the dog to salivate and drool after a little snack of it

Well the point was like butter at 212 so that’s been pulled. Pit style green beans in my 5qt lodge Dutch oven is on.

Flat is now done. Total cook time was 4.5 hrs. Not bad for first time hot and fast. Now into a cooler they go until noonish

 

[NoOne]

Brisket looks great! I'm also partial to an original fatty with just rub on it.
