Looks solid Hapster. I have not mastered brisket. Only done three though. I guess being from SC I like tradition pulled pork. We agree on the beverage for sure.

AleBrewer · February 9

28" of snow far....and it's still coming down!

Damn you. Jealous as hell... Have fun and stay safe. Sunny and windy here; not even a dusting.

Chubbs · February 9

Hap, by the way, I cooked your fire roasted veggie salsa over chicken with avocado the other night. Very good. \m/

So no braising step, flipping it over, foil crutch step, or any of that. Just straight up low and slow?

Yeah......well, umm....I'm not even at home. I'm working in the mid west, so no snow here either. My wife is at home dealing with all this.....wish I was home though. I'd have the Egg going with some ribs for lunch!

@hapster here you go . it's called spicy lexington red slaw from the book wicked good barbecue .

1 cup - cayenne pepper sauce (franks red hot )

1/2 - cup Worcestershire sauce

1/4 - cup cider vinegar

1/4 - cup packed brown sugar

2 - tablespoons of chilli powder

1 - head napa cabbage , thinly sliced

2 - carrots shredded

2 - tablespoons IQUE dry rub (i used dizzy swamp venom )

i also used regular cabbage this stuff was to spicy for most so i added a few tablespoons of mayo and made it a creamy spicy slaw, surprisingly it turned out to be really good and was a great hit . i liked it as is but for the masses a touch of mayo was the trick . let me know what you think if and when you make it

CigarSmokinEgger · February 9

That looks awesome Sir! I can't wait to do my 1st brisket.

Thank you for the recipe... I don't have any carrots and have a head of green and a head of red cabbage shredded already. I might go more traditional on this one and try yours on a smaller batch soon. I think it might be a touch warm for the rest of my family, and I am not a fan of mayo with my cabbage if I'm making it :)

Hap, I liked this slaw recipe. But I added some Miracle Whip to it, to make it creamier. I made it a day ahead of time though. Felt it was better day 2.

Hapster - y'all be safe during this storm! Sounds like a VERY bad one. At least we know you won't starve ... Ya might freeze, but it will be with a fully belly. You and yours be safe. :)

We'll be fine... Got nothing but sun and a cold wind. Zippo on the snow.

The IT hit 185 and I opened the vents a little to get me to 200 and then FTC. The dome is now 275 and the IT is 193. I want to get it in cooler before I have to go watch my nephew in the semis for bball.

hapster · February 9

Just finishing up and about to FTC it.., about 13 hours. Went quicker than I thought. Might be time to recalibrate the dome thermo

MrCookingNurse · February 9

do you recalibrate every so often?? my last clean burn i walked away and it read 200.... so i guess thats about 1100 for real

Thanks.......She's doing fine. A bit weary from clearing snow from driveway and around the chicken coop, but still have power and the storm is letting up finally.

Looking forward to some finished brisket pics though!

hapster · February 9

Ready for the FTC...

Looks great!

R2Egg2Q · February 9

Wow! Now that is some serious bark! Looking forward to seeing it sliced and hearing how you liked it.

MrCookingNurse · February 9

I hate it when I hear this on food network, but man that brisket is SEXY

SmokinDAWG82 · February 9

Lookin good, and no visible snow in your pic so I guess the worst missed you!

lousubcap · February 9

Looks great-I'm sure it will taste the same. Thanks for the play-by-play of the journey! Figure you've got "somewhere north of a half bottle of Double Oaked" to enjoy as well!

AleBrewer · February 9

Bark looks awesome.....hope it turns out as well as it looks!

Alton · February 9

Silly question, FTC, Foil _ _? Again thanks for the play by play

Howdy, Stranger!
