I look at it more as an manic obsessive sh*t show from a guy who clearly has too much time on his hands, but if that's inspiration then so be it

Great work, @The Cen-Tex Smoker. I better keep @20stonespice away from this, or she'll leave me for you.
I did a much more half assed version with a flat a few months back (following Meathead, for the most part, but taking every shortcut because I had no business even thinking about it that weekend), and it turned out great. I can only imagine how awesome that tastes.

Threw some of this on a charcuterie board yesterday for a crowd of about 10. It really held up well in the freezer. It was still really good and was a huge hit with everyone. Nice to see it was what I thought it was.
Guess I need to start on round 2. I have one little strip of burnt ends left. Those will be gone shortly.Keepin' It Weird in The ATX FBTX -

I now have a bread project, a saurkraut project and a Russian dressing project on tap. I'm going to have to use store bought kraut tomorrow, but should have our own funky stuff next weekend.

I am a moron. Went to Central market to get the spices for the rub this morning. Get home and fresh grind all the spices together and rubbed the brisket. Got the egg settled in around 225 with some oak, put them on settled in to watch a little football and figure out what I'm going to do with the day . I had a nagging feeling that something was off. I went back through and read it all again then it hit me...I had forgotten to mix all the fresh ground spices with the salt and sugar to finish the rub! sh!t. I had a ton of spices left so I weighed them out and it was almost exactly half of what I made. So I ran out there, Pulled the briskets off the egg rinsed them off, added the salt and sugar to the spices and used almost exactly the amount of rub I had left. Lucky! Maybe a tablespoon left over.
Anyhow, all is well now ad they are back in the egg getting some oak smoke until they darken up. Then in the bath for 30 hours.

(note: while on this thread and others it may seem like I'm pushing these over-the-top hair-brained 20stone driven projects, it should be noted that to best interpret my comments you need to think of them as being voiced by the sad, depressed robot from "Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy")XXL BGE, Karebecue, Klose BYC, Chargiller Akorn Kamado, Weber Smokey Mountain, Grand Turbo gasser, Weber Smoky Joe, and the wheelbarrow that my grandfather used to cook steaks from his cattle

You know, I'm just trying to think of others here. It's for the good of the forum, good for the community.
btw, plenty of properties for sale in central Texas with cavesLove you bro! -

To date, the only thing we've decided NOT to buy as a group is land.
So, if you buy the property with a cave, I'll chip in for 1/7 (we'd be up one partner) of the cow and ongoing associated expenses.

Very tempting @Foghorn (not really), but delaying retirement to 75 just doesn't have enough appeal for me. So far I've been able to avoid turning moderately expensive pursuits in to wallet crushing ones. That's why you guys are so important, your dedication to this serves as both an incredible inspirational tale...and a dire warning.Love you bro!
