Title: 1st Brisket
Post by: fishingbouchman on June 27, 2013, 05:12:39 AM
Figured it was time to give one a shot.  Walking through Costco picking up a few things for a camping trip this weekend and thought a brisket sounded good.  Little guy 4.5 lbs.  trimmed.

I can never make up my mind.  so another 50/50 cook.  BPDSSR on 1/2 (wife fav for steak), and the other 1/2 with Tatonka and Money.

Lets start off with mesquite and then some apple after that.  What I had.

In the Mak at smoke for 1.5 hrs.  Water pan added the whole cook

after 1.5 hrs of smoke I bumped the temp to 250.  At about 150-160 I liked the color so time to foil.  Also Added a glug or two of wine.   Think it was around 3 hrs at 250.

another 2ish hours and the probes were going in nice.  temp was around 200-205.  Pulled and FTM (foil, towel, microwave).

 Headed off to work and wife had it for dinner.  Text I got said "OMG that was the best Brisket I have ever had"  Guess it turned it out :)  Can't wait to try it tomorrow.
