Doing another brisket this weekend so I ordered this bad boy off Amazon for $13. It has a plastic mop that you can unscrew and toss in the dishwasher. I'll post pics of tomorrow's cook in this thread as well (unless you guys think I should start a new one, I'm fairly new to the forums and don't...

I think you might be on to something....

Turned out moist and toothpick tender. The flavor was great though next time I'll go with less sugar and more vinegar in my next mop sauce. Plan on chopping the rest of the point and flat to go with eggs for breakfast tomorrow. I have stopped wrapping my brisket for awhile now, prefering to...

An hour or two away from perfection.

She is starting to get nice and carmelized

I've finally gotten comfortable enough with smoking brisket to feel like I can try something new. I found this slab on sale at Cash 'n Carry for $2.50/lb so decide it was time to experiment. I loaded the Traeger with Texas Mesquite pellets from Bear Mountain and fired her up to 225 degrees...

That was the inspiration for this monster!

Thanks! I was really pleased with how it turned out.

So today I had a potluck dinner with my extended family. As the smoker enthusiast of the family I was asked to bring a meat dish. This is what I ended up with. I used the 3-2-1 method for 2 racks of ribs on my traeger, each where coated in Memphis Dust and smoked using hickory pellets. I...

So boys, it finally happened... I'm a married man. We said 'I Do' this last Sunday. It was the single most Happy/Stressful day of my life. A lot of that stress came from the fact that I had made all the food and this was my first time cooking for more than 20-30 people. The Thursday before...

Ended up great. Shredded the pork and mixed it with the veggies. Hit it with some cheese and fajita sauce to finish. Tasted great and was a real treat.the wife thinks this is her new favorite recipe.

Added some onion and bell peppers to the mix. Pulled the pork back out of the tin to let it firm up and to let the veggies cook down.

Time for an update. Decided to forgo a glaze and instead threw some Salsa Verde in the foil pan along with some lime juice and cilantro. Made some beer brats for lunch and threw some of the reduced beer and sausage grease in because... Why not?

Awesome. Thanks for the post, and the best part is I own most of the ingredients already
