Newest UDS finished, some brisket porn

[AJP]

Well I finished my newest UDS the other day. It is a purple Vikings UDS, the magnet is on order but other than that it is finished.

Last night I mixed up a batch of Oklahoma Joe's brisket rub and rubbed down a brisket flat and let it simmer over night in the fridge.

1/4 cup kosher salt
1/4 cup sugar
2 tablespoons garlic powder
2 tablespoons onion powder
2 tablespoons Spanish paprika
2 tablespoons chili powder
1 tablespoon celery salt
1 tablespoon lemon pepper
1 tablespoon freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon freshly ground white pepper
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper

Got home from work this morning and loaded the UDS with 6lbs of Royal Oak and got it lit and up to temp about 10am. I work midnights so I then went to sleep. I woke up around 4pm and the UDS was still at a perfect 240. Cracked it open and the brisket read 187 on my Super Fast Red Thermapen. Let it rest about 30 minutes then enjoyed.

Taste was amazing just slightly dry probably since it was a trimmed flat with not much fat and it smoked a bit longer than I wanted. Sorry no sliced pics I was starving and it smelled and tasted to darn good, plus the fiance wasnt wanting to wait for me to snap pics.

Nice PRON (not porn ). Congrats, bro! Nice UDS. And, darn good cook for the first time on the UDS. For an experiment, you may want to add a higher grill and use a diffuser. It will keep the meat away from direct heat.

Nice can! I'll bet your wife loves the paint circles on the garage floor too!

Nope this is Porn not pron. Not my first UDS cook, just first cook on this UDS. No need for a diffuser, part of the flavor is fat dripping on a fire. Not on direct heat thanks to the beauty of the UDS

Don't have a wife, and why would anyone care about paint on a garage floor, it's a garage floor.

Good looking UDS! I like the color, I see you paint in the garage like I do. How deep is that grate? It looks like it's about 10" from the top. What's the gap between grate and basket?

I'm going to do 2 flat lid UDS' soon, so I'm just curious.

I agree with the brethren above. At a glance it doesn't look like you have the recomended 22" between the fire grate and the cooking grate.

23 inches from grate to grate. Again not my first UDS, just showing off the new vikings theme and brisket.

Seriously good build. How well does that lid seal?

 

[AJP]
