    Prime Brisky on the Smokin'-It #3

    I bought two at Costco last week, one 11 lbs which I smoked today.  And a 14 pounder for a potluck next week. I'm sketched out on the 14 pounder...  I think wet aging these are the way to go.  I wish I had this aged...  Have you wet aged any of your Costco prime briskets purely in the cryovac...

    Yeah, it sure is interesting. I was showing my wife your brisket and she was like "which end is the point?"  You had a huge point on that brisket. Our 11 pound brisket was mostly flat...  The point was relatively small.. So your temp was at 220 for 11 hours to completion without wrap?

    Prime Brisky on the Smokin'-It #3

    Yep - prime.  Unfortunately, mine isn't much to look at right now.  This is my first butcher paper wrap.. They do finish way faster.  I've had two (actually three) of these that were tender at 175.  I learned the temperature lesson the hard way with an overcooked brisket at 190.  Of course I...

    Looks great!   I have an 11 pounder from Costco smoking @ 200.  It's been on for 12 hours and is at 158. The bark on your brisket looks great!
