Like many others, I've been enjoying Bradley's videos on YouTube (Chud BBQ). I've seen more and more references to the Chud Boat approach, and I managed to take yesterday off work, fire the Shirley, and get a brisket going.
I thought the outcome was fantastic and one of the better briskets I've cooked. The one ancillary benefit that I really appreciated was the easy access towards then end of the cook to assess whether it was ready to come off the pit vs. needed more time. I feel like I'm often fumbling around with unwrapping / rewrapping with butcher paper, and ultimately I can't imagine that is good for the cook.
Anyways, just thought I'd share, especially since there was a tangential benefit that I didn't really think of until I was actually executing the Chud Boat.
