Picked up a Sams CAB 7.5 lb flat on Sat morning.  Been doing Old Dave Po Farm method of Hot & Fast.  Did it exactly like he said except I used Dizzy Dust Coarse for my rub and I add more Au Jus mix before I foil, usually 505/50 split of beef broth and worsch- 3/4 cup to 1 cup.  Foiled at 166 internal and pulled at 206 internal and let rest for 45 min still wrapped and another 15 min unwrapped.  The picture of the red bottle was the amount of juice I got after taking it out of the foil.  Love this method and always gets a nice juicy finished product, thanks Dave.

    Thanks for sharing the link.

    Don't let too many eggers go to that link... They will flip their lid that he uses the generic "ceramic cooker" instead of saying Big Green Egg (see: Bobby Flay).

    I had the pleasure of hanging out with Old Dave at a KCBS competition in Peoria, IL one afternoon and the man is a walking legend. Even his own introduction says it all!

    Probably a good way to do a flat. Definitely worth trying.

    Ron, as I've told you before, what you do with other men on your own time is your own business. Who am I to judge?

    I think the key to this recipe is a couple of things.  One, nice high raised grid just like he has in the picture.  The other is to not let it rest too long, at least that's my experience.  I've done this about 10 times now, and I think that 1 hr in foil rested works best and then a 20-30 min out of foil and juices before slicing.  If you need to wait longer, I'd take out a good majority, if not all of the juice after 1.5-2 hrs and re-wrap it.

    that method gives a great smoke ring, better than low and slows for the ring for me. i do it that way about 50 percent of the time, especially if i have a flat thet doesnt have much of a fat layer
