Tomorrow night is our annual Christmas party we host for some of our friends. It's a once a year, leave the kids at home and hang out like we were 20 again type of event. We'll have a total of 12 counting us.
So, I worked from my cell phone and headset for a portion of this afternoon and did these:
I did use the oven for this... if I hadn't been working today and had time, ok I'll stop making excuses, it was just easier.
And then I roasted the almonds I cold smoked 2 weeks ago.
And then we went to my little guy's first ever school Christmas concert. He was pretty excited about it, but I don't think he really knew what to expect once he got up in front of everyone. He's the one in the glasses.
Enjoyed that thoroughly, I hope the pictures can help me remember these moments 20 years from now. Heck, I'll need the pictures to help me remember 5 years from now...
Got home and cleaned up the mess that I left in the kitchen. Then I found this thing in the basement fridge:
Well, I was going to mix up a marinade of A1 and Sweet Baby Ray's, but I didn't have time for a marinade... What to do... I gave it a light trim and gave it a nice coat of S&P.
Back in the fridge for now. It doesn't need to go on for a bit, but I wanted to prep it awhile since I don't want to do it later.
I started the XL, I think he was angry and feeling crowded from other alternative cooking means being utilized around here.
And it is now rock steady at 250*.
All dishes are washed, brisket is still chillin in the fridge, and I'm posting this. And drinking beverages. And have heaps to do tomorrow to prep. But it's still too early to put the brisket on the egg... So I wait, and post...

Dude looks as excited as his peeps. Those are good times. Good dad for documenting. Sounds like a fun time coming up, but I for one don't recover like I did some twenty something years ago...

@DMW-I was wondering when you were gonna pull the trigger on the second SRF from your two pack buy. Your guests have no idea how good they will have it. Better to be lucky than good any day. Enjoy the festivities. BTW-those pies look great.Louisville; Rolling smoke in the neighbourhood. # 38 for the win. Life is too short for light/lite beer! Seems I'm livin in a transitional period.

This going to be good! Im afraid of SRF, thinking it might be like crack and I get hooked into a costly habit.Jacksonville FL

I'm with you @Dobie. I'm scared to try one as I don't want to be disappointed in every non-SRF brisket after that.L x2, M, S, Mini and a Blackstone 36. She says I have enough now....eggAddict from MN!

Thanks guys, we have the basement all setup. I think this is a new record for us, having the logistics finished by 10:00AM. Now just need to make a run to the store for a few additional last minute things and then finish the final few dishes.Brisket is now at 172*, sat at 160* for quite awhile.They/Them

You're approaching the probing stage here pretty soon already so running w/out pit controller is a non issue at this point. I'll keep an eye out for the brisket candy. Big finish Dwayne B-)LBGE 2013 & MM 2014Die Hard HUSKER & BRONCO FANFlying Low & Slow in "Da Burg" FL
