    First brisket with real time Qview!

    It was sooo tender and juicy. Only issue was the skinny flat area was a little dry.

    Someone tell me to stop! Chuck roast with Qview

    Came out a little tough but good taste. Might slice it thin and put it on breast for Sammies. Any other ideas to make it a little more tender next time?

    Smoker already going...What else to smoke? Qview

    Pea risotto, roasted sweat potatoes, and a homemade Asian slaw. Soon roasts turned out great, at along side a ton of other meat. Pure gluttony!

    First brisket with real time Qview!

    Very happy for my first brisket. It kept warm in the cooler from 6am to 6pm. Just kept smoking since I had it all fired up. Did a spoon roast and a choice chuck roast. Someone else brought some fall off the bone ribs. Pea risotto and some other goodies as well.

    Someone tell me to stop! Chuck roast with Qview

    so the brisket was done at 6 this morning, and them the spoon roast finished. So I've got time to kill and a row of pellets in the AMNPS so one more stop to the local meat market. They had some really nice looking Choice Chuck Roast so had them cut me up a mode fat one. Rubbed in SPOG and in it...

    Smoker already going...What else to smoke? Qview

    Ok, done already. Guess I'm heading back to the store for more meat!!! Just can't stop, I'm addicted and it would be such a shame to kill the beautiful smoke coming from the AMNPS. It's wrapped and in the cooler with the brisket.

    Smoker already going...What else to smoke? Qview

    Smoked a brisket, didn't have the heart to shut down the smoker as it was humming along quite nicely this morning when I pulled the brisket. Ran to the store and and picked up a spoon toast that the pitcher had already marinaded. Figured it saved me a step. Got it in at the same 225 temp...

    First brisket with real time Qview!

    So just wrap up tight in foil? Couple layers and them wrap in towels and in the cooler?

    First brisket with real time Qview!

    Ok so another question. Should I put the brisket back on the cooling rack in another aluminum pan like you see and then just cover with foil and wrap with towels and in a cooler? I'm thinking I could keep a little air space between the brisket and the foul that way and it wouldn't be laying in...

    First brisket with real time Qview!

    Ok, I didn't not trim ANY fat off. It looked like it would be good. It was mostly 1/2" thick, maybe 1/4" in some places but nothing too nasty or shrubbery so I left it alone. I was thinking how awesome the fat tastes on a prime rib/roast so thought maybe this would be the same. To to sum up...

    First brisket with real time Qview!

    I did score the fat cap tho cause it's super thick. Does that matter? I'm all for smoking straight through if you think it should be fine?

    I did mustard and rub fat cap up

    First brisket with real time Qview!

    I do want the bark, enjoy as many different textures I can get. So just keep it smoking no foul? Will it dry out? I'm not mopping with anything...

Do I NEED to wrap it? Time is not an issue and if it could "smoke" all night and get better flavor I'm fine with that.

    brisket price per lb

    I got a prime packer from Costco for 3.59/lb and it seems nice and floppy, a great cut of meat.
