    Mini brisket section, ideas

    I have been cooking these little guys for a while, I do the usual brisket things- trim some of the hard fat off, rub it down with my favorite rub, pop in the fridge over night, then bring up to room temp before going into the smoker. The problem I have with the smaller cut, for me, is the...

    Straight up wings

    Thank you! I smoked them for about 2 hours for the flavor, dunked them in the BBQ sauce then put them on the gas grill to caramelize the sauce.

    Straight up wings

    Man, Wings are my jam! Love wings! And what makes them better is dropping them on a smoker for a couple of hours, get that full flavor of smoke- then dunk them in your favorite BBQ sauce , slap them on the grill for color! Best things ever!

    I do whole packers as well, but sometimes I just feed myself instead of the neighborhood, and having a smaller cut is just right

    2.9 lbs Brisket

    15 hours?!! Wow! It took mine about 9 hours on the smoker. About 5 to get it up to 170 then another 4 hours for the 210, I think the injection might be the way to go!
