    Didn't know about the pickle juice. I thought they just pooped soft serve ice cream. Those unicorns are amazing.

    The funny thing about the forum is that you can look at most pictures and tell immediately who posted them ... if there's a dark brown lab staring at the food like it's a rare treat ... will that's one of @theyolksonyou's cooks.

    @tarheelmatt the lone slice was done. It was that thin slice that's always at the back of the package. Just up there staying safe and warm. The handle is on old spatula from a grill set that I use for leverage on smash burgers. Finally, pancakes are super easy. 1 banana and 2 eggs. I liquefy with an immersion blender. Simple as that!

    Admiring the chunks I picked up yesterday from Joe's Smoking Woods yesterday. Hickory and Pecan (it's not pronounced Pee-Can either). Apple not shown. #supportsmallbusiness #noaffiliationwiththiscompany

    @SGH ... 21 hours at 200 degrees on a large ... I'm impressed my friend.  Have you needed to do any fire tending?  Can't smell it here, so will take your word for it ... but, it really does look good.

    Went to Fergusons meat market to grab some wings and they had fully trimmed points. They were expensive at $6.99 a lb but all the hard fat and the flat is gone and they were pretty. Gonna sit on my butt all day tomorrow drinking PBR and tending the fire.

    Brother, since I installed my Rutland gasket, (thanks @RRP) I have never had any issue locking the temp at 175 or higher.
     I lit the BGE at 10:00am yesterday with a full load of Rockwood and 4 fist size chunks of oak. Got it adjusted to 200 by 11:00am. At 12:00pm exactly I loaded the brisket and the temp fell to 186. I never touched the vents.
    At 1:00pm it had risen to 210. I made a slight adjustment on the daisy wheel and dropped it back to 200 degrees. In just shy of 24 hours, I never touched the vents again. The egg would fluctuate from 200-205 during the cook.
     I contribute this due to it getting down in the 30's last night and being windy. 5 degrees ain't bad though, and won't effect a thing. As a owner and user of several types of big units, I still say that the egg is a tough act to follow when it comes to setting and forgetting it.
    When loaded and adjusted properly, the BGE will easily hold within 5 degrees for 24+ hours. I have 3 large vertical cabinets that will more than give the egg a run for its money when it comes to holding temps. However for a single brisket, they are beyond overkill.
    As of late, I have been using the BGE far more than the big units. It's more practical and easier to use for small cooks in my opinion.

    I would be all over them in a minute. I prefer point 3 to 1 over flat.

    Steak is one of my very favorites. Will be standing by for the finale.

    Got my brisket trimmed and rubbed awhile so I don't have to fool around with a knife later on when I might will be impaired.

    Same deal here-but it was the most hard fat brisket I have had from Costco.  At the end of the day removed 3+ pounds of fat from an 11.5 # brisket.  Tomorrow will tell.  Enjoy the cook and eats.  
    Edit: The cook will be most excellent regardless.
