    Brisket for the future

    I'm smoking a brisket today and through the night, but won't be serving it until Friday evening.  What is the best way to store this thing so it doesn't dry out.  I was planning in reheating in a crock pot and then serve.  Should I wait until Friday to slice and make burnt ends?  I was thinking...

    First Brisket, first smoke with new a-maze-n smoker

    The brisket came out really tasty and tender. The finished product had a nice bark and great flavor.  I used only a small amount of montreal seasoning and that was plenty. I'll surly be making more.  Thanks for the great support on this site.

    First Brisket, first smoke with new a-maze-n smoker

    About an hour in, I think the a-maze-n smoker will do just fine with the tips from Todd and some good old fashioned Boy Scout knowledge.

    First Brisket, first smoke with new a-maze-n smoker

    rubbing and waiting

    I cant seem to notice a difference if I rub my pork shoulder, let it sit overnight or rub it and toss it in the smoker.  Any preference out there?  Most recipes call for an overnight rest in the frige.  I don't know.
