Title: God bless America Brisket
Post by: Pappymn on July 04, 2016, 05:47:05 PM
Victory!  Feel like I got my man card back after my ribs yesterday :)

Third brisket in my life. First packer. Found a small 7.5 pound Prime at Costco. I was trying to follow the Aaron Franklin technique.

Simple salt, pepper and garlic. No injecting. Put on the Mak running 250 degrees. Mak ran hotter on the upper rack, more like 275 degrees. Also ran a tube of pellets for a few hours.

This took about 7 hours total I think. Wrapped in butcher paper at about 180 degrees.

Passed the moisture test very well. Nice bark. Did not pass the pull test.

Most of the fat rendered well from the deckle. Was happy about that.

I posted the recipe for the cucumber salad in side dishes. The cornbread thing was very average. I wouldn't recommend it

That is one of the better briskies I have seen in a while.

How did you like the salt-pepper-garlic combo?

Having had my fill of fireworks for another year, I checked up on the forum to see what I missed.

Pappy, you killed that brisket!!  It looks so good!  I will take a plate with everything, please.

Don't know if your man card was ever really in question, but not after that brisket ! ! !

And let Ava know that I'll take one of those patriotic desserts, too ! ! !
