Title: Brisket on the Rectec
Post by: GusRobin on December 15, 2017, 09:04:47 PM
Well soon to be. A few months ago I picked up a 10 lb prime brisket at Costco.

Tonight I trimmed it.

Added just a simple rub of salt, pepper, and gunpowder. Wrapped it in saran wrap and put it in the refrigerator until tomorrow morning.

Then it will go on the RecTec. I decided to follow Franklin's method from his You-tube video. So this time I won't inject it. We'll see what happens tomorrow. I'll be back

Saw those prime babies this morning at Costco for $2.99 a pound. Only legit meat deal I have ever found in Minnesota

DONE
Put it in at 5:30 am at 250*. It was a 10lb brisket trimmed to about 9-9.5 Lbs. No pics as it was too early for me and I just wanted to get back in bed as it was 32* out.
When it hit174* and was climbing out of the stall, I wrapped it in butcher paper until it hit 201*. Total cook time was about 10 hours. Put it in an insulated bag for about an hour.
Here it is pulled.

Plated with fries and salad.

The end part of the flat was a little on the dry side, still tender but not bad. The rest of the flat and point was very tender, very juicy, and tasted great. Will do this again, but maybe a few minutes less.

Sometime the end pc of the flat is just to thin and drys a bit but your pictures show the true tail. That is one moist and juicy brisket and who says you can't get a smoke ring from a pellet grill really needs to be quiet.

Good call on the butcher paper with the brisket. You keep your bark and your brisket don't taste like pot roast.

Excellent cook my friend.

Looks really good, and made me hungry! Putting a flat in the smoker this morning myself.
