Its been a while since I have made an appearance, but I have wanted to smoke a beef brisket for a long time, havent done one yet, finally decided to take that plunge! Anyhow, I am an over the road truck driver and I had planned on only doing a brisket for dinner tonight, but the wife informed me that all that they had at the meat market was a 16 pound packer brisket, I figured "no biggie, go ahead and buy it, I will be home friday morning and will start it early friday afternoon"...... Yeah right, the typical life of a truck driver, I got delayed at my delivery friday morning and didnt get home until 21:30 last night. That threw a wrench in my plans on having the brisket for dinner tonight, but I decided to make the best of the situation and just roll with it, so now I have a rack of spares on, and a rack of baby backs going on In a littl bit (I know the baby backs cook quicker than the spares) and by the time the ribs are done, I will be throwing the brisket on for tommorrow night for dinner. Gonna be a long night, as I am smoking on a cheap non modified CharBroil offset, so holding it at 225degrees should be fun/challenging.
