Our guests arrived Friday at around 10 PM. I lit the egg around 945 PM to get the temp settled in. Used RW and chunks of oak mixed in throughout for smoke.
Brisket was trimmed and seasoned with a simple S&P rub. I did try some new salt and the pepper was fresh ground peppercorn (measured each out to 40 grams for a 50/50 by weight).
Stoker and brisky in the egg now (I guess it was around 1030PM).
Roughly 15 hrs later it probed like buttuh. But, we weren't due to eat for another 5 hrs so FTC (minus the towel). Which gave me time to get ready for the Husker game. We watched collegiate football all day.
Time to eat. Sliced and plated.
Sunday....

too bad you didn't have any fun at all this weekend - love the pics of the smoke, it all looks great

Thanks. It was a fun laidback weekend. Brisky was my best yet. It was very moist and a depth in good beef flavor (continues to improve which is a positive in my mind). The lolly's turned out moist with a crisp skin (almost a hundred wings which made close to 200 lollipops---yep it was some work but, the wow factor with our guests was well worth it.
Pics were taken with my phone. The real clear ones were taken by my wife HuskerMaMa w/ her nice camera and the YouTube tutorial was also courtesy of my beautiful bride HuskerMaMa :-)LBGE 2013 & MM 2014Die Hard HUSKER & BRONCO FANFlying Low & Slow in "Da Burg" FL -

It was awesome to spend some time just relaxing, cooking, chilling with friends, watching football and yes enjoying several cocktails. I wish it would've been a 3 day or longer holiday weekend. But, it was for sure a great time.Fred19Flintstone said:Awesome weekend!

You should probably sent that brisket to my attention and I will dispose of it properly. HAHA Looks awesome and that bark made me drool on my keyboard a tad, ok a lot. Love the smoke in the ezup, that thing is going to be a tad brown.

I like this one. Perfect for the house and the beach. Husker Red and it was on sale. I'm sure at some point we'll get one that has the vent. But, for now this works Aokay. Even during a L&S it doesn't get crazy smokey like that which is why I shot the pic.bud812 said:Dude, you need a vented ez-up. L-)
