Decision time!

Been really thinking about the fat cap.
Many suggest down to act as a barrier against the heat, but this will be an offset cook, so I don't think that rule applies.
Others suggest FCC up as a natural flavor packet during cook. However, under that cap is some nasty silver skin. So, I'm not sure much basting would be happening, unless...I take a paring knife and create slits all through the FC.

Me thinks...too much :-)

Time to review interesting post on topic http://www.genuineideas.com/ArticlesIndex/silverskin.html

Have you thought of taking fat off in 1 piece..taking off silver skin and reapply the  fat cap for it's benefits? Just a thought. kinda like they do with prime rib, cut it an put it back together.  Pam   .☆´¯`•.¸¸. ི

I have considered doing that Pam!

Purchased my first injector (yea, I know, sad!) today to use on this brisket too.

Now, another thing I'm considering is cook time in relation to party time.

The party is Saturday night
The brisket is 6lbs
I could do the cook on Friday and warm it back up Saturday or just cook it Saturday morning and hold in cooler till dinner time.

As I plan to serve with an au jus, I'm leaning toward the Friday cook to prevent the dreaded (not quite done saga)

i trim most of the fat cap off. I don't think it does anything. I get more rub and smoke coverage this way. Injecting the flat is a good idea..............

1 teaspoon garlic powder
one-half teaspoon cayenne pepper

2 - Fat cap - will remain during cook
3 - Hardwood selection: Mesquite
