I got a pork butt today to add a little more meat. It is 7 pounds and I am giving it 12 to 14 hours at 225 to finish. I am going to put...

    Texas Brisket Question

    I took the brisket up to 180 degrees and then chilled it down. They are waiting to be finished Sunday morning in the oven/ smoker. How long do you think it will take to bring the temp back up to 180 and finish?

    Texas Brisket Question

    Thanks for the tips on the prime brisket cook. I like this method. I am going to put 6 hours or so of smoke on the briskets tomorrow (friday) and then chill them down. How long are two 15 pounders going to take to finish and rest coming out of the fridge?  What do you think of this plan ...

    I got two 15 pound "prime" briskets from Costco yesterday. They are pretty. Plan. I am going to cook the briskets Friday  for 12 hours on the NBBD with aged oak and then finish them in the oven in a foil pan. Finish, cool, fridge, and reheat on Sunday. I did this before and it was a hit. The...
