    First Brisket w/ qview

    The first one that I did I marinaded overnight, then injected, then sprinkled with rub. I didn't trim it at all. It was fatty as all heck but it was tasty. Now I trim off as much of the fat as I can, don't brine it at all, inject it and let it go. Wrap the sucker as soon as it has a bark on...

    First Brisket w/ qview

    First Brisket w/ qview
