[oconeeal]

Ok football season has started and I going to cook all day.  I am going to do my first brisket.  I know the brisket will take all day so I also going to smoke some chicken and some meat loaf.   I have done the meat loaf before and they were great.  The chicken is in a brine over night and will start the smoker up around 8.  Will keep you posted with qviews.   O yes Go Dawgs.

Started the smoker at 8 and put brisket and chicken on at 9 temp holding at 225.  I made a rub for the brisket using brown sugar, salt, ground pepper, and a few other spices.  For the chicken I used the Emeril's chicken rub.

I then made a run to our local Farmers Market to pick up something to go with coffee.

Then it time to start the meat loaf.  I use 4 meats, ground beef, pork, mild italiam sauages, and polish kielbasa.  I mixed green, yellow, and red peppers.  Added salt, ground pepper and a couple of other spices.  I added a can of tomato sause and a little bread crumbs.   Then wraped a couple pices of bacon around them.  I am making a few little meal loaf as we will freeze them and give some to our neighbors.  There is only the wife and I so when I smoke we freeze so we have it durring the week.  The brisket is for Sunday lunch.

Took brisket out and it tase so good will have for dinner tomorrow.  The only thing I did not get a bark on it.  I cooked at 230 to 235 till 160 int then wrap and put beef broth in with it till 190 int .  What should I have done to get a bark on it.  Thanks for all the right up on brisket.   I read a lot before I tryed one.

Looks great!  I use brownsugar in my rub to help form a bark, and I don't foil mine.  Usually a good bark by the time it hits 190-195.  Slice and enjoy.  Hope this helps.  Steve

If you want a better bark then dont foil it. I also will apply some more rub once I get to the 160 area. Just spray with apple juice then sprinkle rub on it. Looks like a good day to me.
