Title: Pecan and Cherry Wood Smoked Cut Brisket
Post by: HighOnSmoke on October 06, 2015, 06:45:16 PM
I picked up a cut brisket on the 2nd of October.  I am not sure what part it was cut from but if I had to
venture a guess it appears to be the deckle. It looks similar to other deckles that I have cooked. I had
planned on cooking it on Sunday so I seasoned it with garlic pepper and Oakridge BBQ Black Ops and
put it in the refrigerator.  Well, as normal this time of the year I came down with a nasty head cold so no
cooking for the past few days.  I am feeling a lot better today so I fired up the Weber Performer, using
KBB in the SnS, and added a few chunks of hickory and cherry wood.  Right before I put the brisket on
the grill I gave it a good dose of Tee’s Top Secret #2. 

It took exactly 7 hours to get the brisket to 198 degrees and probe tender.  It may have cooked faster if
I would have gone for a higher temperature in the grill.  The first 2 hours it sat at 200 degrees.  Once more
of the wood caught fire it worked its way up to 235 and that is where it stayed.  I did wrap it at 160 with a
½ cup of cherry coke.

I still don’t have my appetite back so we settled on garlic toast and cucumber salad for dinner.  The brisket
came out real tasty.  I think the next one I do I will skip the other 2 rubs and go straight with Top Secret #2.

TS-2 is one of Tee's latest rubs.  Mike and I have been cooking with/testing it and reporting back to Tee.  I keep telling him it's time to release this one.  It is really good!

Mike, I have been testing it for several months.  It has become my go-to rub for anything beef or pork.  Part of the issue of not getting it out right now has to do with getting his new labels for all his products.  PM Tee and see if he would be able to send a bottle or two out west.
