Enjoy the briskies!

 

[lemans]

Red Dawn
12-18 red peppers
Vinegar , tomato sauce ,salt and sugar.

 

[lemans]

So.. Brisket # 1 ( Butchers Injection)
Has reached 203 and is soft and plyable
Toothpick test says it ready so into the cooler it goes still wrapped in the paper
8 hours on the smoker.
While contestant #2 is at 190 .. both
Wsm’s Are within 20 degrees of each other and this brisket is smaller ( due to shrinkage.. )
I can’t wait to taste the difference.
More to come

 

[lemans]

So at 2:15 Brisket #2 goes into the Cooler. Next post at dinner

Man, epic side-by-side. I'm rooting for the Butcher's injected contestant. Did you have a phosphate component to that injection? I'm pretty sold on injection always. Can't wait for the results, nice cook !!

 

[lemans]

Butchers has phosphates . My other injection is only strong beef broth

 

[troutman]

Yea thought that was what you were using. It also as an MSG component, not a big fan. Still looking forward to the results !!!

 

[lemans]

We will see together in about an hour and a half

 

[lemans]

Where do I start?? Two 13 lb Briskets is a lot of meat..
Here is # 1 injected with Butchers Brisket Injection

 

[lemans]

now for number #2

 

[lemans]

Here they are side by side. Left Butchers Right just Beef Broth injection

 

[lemans]

Both juicy but without a doubt. The one with Butchers Injection was the winner!
Softer , plumper and juicer..
I tried to keep the cook as close to even as possible .. but again each brisket cooks at its own rate. Both taken to 204..
My conclusion :
The Butchers Injection is awesome
My family agrees. I now see why Dave
Has won all those completions ..
Thank You so much for following my Smoke . I hope you have gamed some knowledge. As for me.. I f...kin tired.
I’m going to put the twins away and sit down and have a drink..
Until our next smoke..
Peace... The Kosher Smoker..
