Yeah, I bought a bunch of white cotton auto detailing towels. Just always threw them away after cooks. Honestly should just buy pink foam insulation and cut them to size or something.
Looking if someone can help. I wrapped the last brisket I made in bath towels to insulate it during the rest. In the past, I’ve always just tossed the shitty towels out. This time, I decided to try and wash them. Ran them through the washer, tossed them in the dryer, and the towels still smell...
I’m sure it did. I’m just not sure how the brisket, mixed with my tears of frustration, will taste in chili.
Worst part about screwing this up is that I know I won’t be cooking one for redemption for at least another 3 weeks. So now I have to dwell on it.
Agreed. I pulled it at 205° though. Probably got up to 206-207° during rest. I’m pretty confident it was overcooked with how it sliced. The slices more crumbled than sliced, however, it was still very juicy on the point.

Get yourself a good boning knife. Mercer and Victorinox make a great product that is inexpensive. And it’s...
14lb choice brisket stuffed onto my WSM18 with absolutely no room to spare. Hickory, apple, and oak chunks. Hoping to be slicing into it around 1:00-2:00p tomorrow.
