A Brisket Load

[smokingohiobutcher]

Hey everybody I finally tackled my demon and did a full brisket!!! Well 2 actually And an extra point ...and 2 Tri- Tips.   Might as well screw up big!!  I have been fearing doing a brisket for a while but I forced my self to jump in!  I vacum marinated all the meat at work with an Onion Steak marinade we have.

    Here they are just before going on the drum.

 The smaller stuff on the bottom...They were way more marbled than the full briskets so I figured they could handle the heat.

It's just a hunk of meat, Just go low and slow. Foil at 150* and have a few beverages till 200* Let it sit untill ready,pull and gorge yurself.

Sweet...doin a brisket today myself...

Looks awesome..   I know a lot of people get very anxious when doing a brisket, but as long as you watch your internal temps and keep the TBS going, you will be fine.  Yours look great!  Love the tri tips.  wish they were cheaper around here..

looks very juicy, great job

Great lookin slabs o beef!!!

 I don't know why anybody is afraid of smokin a brisket . I don't think i've seen anyone yet that said ,I was scared and i tried it and it didn't work.

 There is a cut and dried technique posted in alot of places here that works fine.

 The thing that you must remember is a whole packer is probably one of the longest smokes you will do . You must have patience and allow yourself plenty of time. This is a long smoke that can not be rushed if you want to achieve brisket nirvana.

You should've called.  I would have been willing to risk the trip to try that first brisket (which still eludes me).

Nice job

 

[deannc]

Great job and way to slay them demons!!  And you done it not with just 1 brisket but a whole load in the UDS!
