Here's a blast from the past! Was just digging through old pictures and thought I would share... this is the first brisket I ever smoked; seared on a Char-Broil 22.5" kettle and smoked on the Char-Griller Smokin' Pro w/side firebox on September 27th, 2007. I can't believe it was only 5 1/2 years ago... feels like 10 to 12 years ago!
13.25 lb brisket and used Jeff's Naked Rib Rub and heavily peppered, smoked with hickory and mesquite. I recall searing and my wife being upset that I had just wrecked an expensive cut of meat!

Blackened Brisket! Recipe sounds simple ;)

My first brisket was a flat cooked in a Brinkmann charcoal tube back in the 70's. I cooked it for two or three hours as I recall, achieving a gorgeous black patina on the outside and leaving it mostly pink on the inside. The Brinkmann had no thermometer and I figured it was done after I'd used up a medium bag of charcoal and a few dozen hickory chunks.
I almost needed a chainsaw to cut the thing and chewing it was impossible. I scratched my head and wondered why the BBQ joint downtown could make tender, juicy slices from this cut of meat. I decided I must have gotten a bad brisket. Tried it again a few weeks later. Very similar results. Didn't cook another brisket for 30 years ::)

The smokinokie has always charred his briskies first and they come out real good for him..at least that's his story and he's sticking to it!! ;)

It's not burnt, it's turbo-charred!
Of course, Marty, you would tease me with a pic of the point end cut open and nearly falling apart like that!
