The house next door has been remodeled and the for sale sign went up last week. An open house was scheduled for Sunday which seemed like a good day to smoke brisket. Costco had prime brisket for $3.99/lb so bought one for me and one for my neighbors. One was 18 lbs and the other 15 lbs.
I got the smoker fired up. Trimmed both briskets up, used a mild hot sauce as a slather and then put on a dry rub of course ground pepper, granulated garlic, granulated onion, kosher salt and a little bit of smoked paprika, ground rosemary and ground bay leaf. Briskets in the smoker at 8:15AM. I used oak and apple wood at around 275. Folks came by to look at the house and any buyer will not be surprised by the smell of smoke and bbq. I know my smoker isn't on the seller's disclosures and I don't want any problems with the new neighbor. Pics below are before, 8 hours in and when I pulled the first one off at 9PM. Second one pulled at 11PM. Both wrapped, put in coolers. I was happy with the results and the neighbors already asked me to make them another one the next time I do a brisket. Sorry no pics of the sliced brisket.
