My First Brisket!

[skipdonohue]

Brisket was not on the menu for my daughters bday party, but when I walked by a beautiful 10lb USDA Prime packer that Fairway incorrectly priced and stickered as Choice, I couldn't pass it up..  Fired up the Yoder Cheyenne, 250deg, hickory splits, rubbed with just salt and pepper and tossed it on friday night 5:30 pm
