Well friends Kroger has Briskets on sale for $1.99 lbs in the Knoxville Tn area. 3 fell into my buggy some how or another . I was going to just freeze all of them and then this morning had 2nd thoughts. I cut the thin flat end off and seasoned with suckle busters 1886 and the rest with SB SPG. The thin flat end I folded over to simulate a thicker cut of meat. I fired the Austin LX up to 500 and when it reached 450ish I cut it back to smoke #6 while I was rubbing my meat with mustard and the SB. I plan to run low temp high smoke for a few hours then kick it up to 250-300, been awhile since I have done 1 so looking forward to it, going to cook or attempt to cook at a higher temp than normal to speed it up. Wife needs /wants something from Sevierville flea market so I cheat by setting my security camera in front of the smoker showing the temps, My smoker aint remote controlled but I like seeing that it hasn't flamed out.

I found the same sale at Kroger here in Louisville on Wednesday. Bought two, one is smoking now and the other is taking the ice nap. May go buy some more as 2/3 off is a pretty sweet deal, especially with the price of other groceries going through the roof. Times like this, a freezer really pays for itself.
