Red Cow Brisket With Some Taters, Smoked Au Jus & Blarns

[smoking b]

I've had this brisket bugging me for several days now & I finally had enough. As soon as I took my BBB out of the smoker I turned it on to heat up & started to work on the brisket.

I gave it some beef rub I mixed up & left it sit for a few minutes.

Once I got the brisket rubbed I sliced up a few things for some au jus.

And when the smoker was ready I put everything in.

This red cow brisket came from a hereford about 4 miles away - there aren't any red angus around me that I know of...

The brisket is currently resting but it will soon be getting sliced. It passed my toothpick test on the 2nd try & I am expecting it to be very tender.

A few slices plated with some au jus.

This red cow brisket turned out very good - great flavor, moist & incredibly tender. It cut quite easily with my fork & kept luring me back for "just one more slice"  It made for a very satisfying meal 

I'll be back shortly with the blarns - I forgot how good they were & had to make more - shoulda just made extra to start with

WOW. Great supper.

I still haven't cooked a full packer.
