So here we go. I got a little bit of a late start due to some rain, possibly turning to freezing rain and sleet / snow but I set up my 12x12 EZ-Up to guard against the weather and fired up the MES.
I decided I'd try Chef Jimmy J's Au Jus after getting some pointers from him...thanks again JJ...
My brisket thread is here for anyone interested in following along. Thanks again for the help and suggestions.

Had a 13.5lb brisket in the deep freeze for about 6 months and decided it was time to thaw it out in the fridge on Monday night. Pulled it out tonight from the cryo bag and it stunk like liquid death. Not sure what the hell went wrong, but wasn't going to take a chance. Shot over to Sam's and...
Thanks for the suggestions. Do you guys use minced garlic and onion or powder?
I've done the brisket with rub but wanted to try S&P to see how I like it, don't know til ya try.
I'm going to smoke a brisket this weekend and while I normally use rub and place in fridge overnight, I've decided to go basic with just salt and pepper. I assume there's no need to coat, wrap in saran wrap, and place in fridge overnight...I can just coat with salt & pepper while smoker is...

After reading Martin's reply, I quickly rinsed off the jerky and threw in the smoker, it was only in the additional mix for about 40 minutes. I've tasted a couple of pieces from each batch and it's not too salty and has a pretty good flavor. Looks like I dodged a bullet on this one. I need to...
I have three 5lb batches. For each batch, I pulled out all of the meat that still had some red, placed flat in a container, and covered with another 5lb batch of seasoning and cure. Mixed and allowed to sit for 15 minutes. I then placed this meat back into the bag with the meat already cured...
I'm making about 15 pounds of beef jerky with sliced top round. I mixed up the Cabela's Smokehouse jerky seasonings in 5lb batches, added the meat, mixed and then dumped in a zip lock bag overnight to marinade. The meat has been in the bags for alittle over 12 hours and I tossed the bag to mix...
