    I would bet a properly smoked brisket you wouldn't have the balls to say that to my face.

    Now keep typing, and not posting pics brother.

    Oh internet tough guy...now you want to fight cause I called you a b!tch?  You dish it out non stop, and now you're just as moist as my flat!


    Not that I really care, but isn't the Internet tough guy the coward that would never back up their incendiary words in person rather than the guy who would???? Just some critical thinking. 
    Threats to back stuff up in person are pretty friggin weak sauce in this context.  
    What are you talking about.  If you call someone an internet tough guy and you are equally engaged in a confrontation, it seems reasonable to me that the real internet toughen guy is the one who would only engage in said confrontation over the net. Doesn't matter to me , but it's the truth. It's like 13to girls who talk behind their peers back but deny it to their face. Fwiw, you do not strike me as one of those guys. I bet you speak your mind regardless. Maybe I'm wrong. It is possible. 
    Pete, saying to someone who lives about 1000 miles away from you "I bet you wouldn't say that to me in person" is kind of silly, you see?  It's not as though Cazzy lives right down the street.
    No, but I guarantee the coward does not have the balls to say it at a fest.  Funny how you guys think I'm the tough guy.  Pull them out of this John.  Actually, none of the Butt Blasters have the balls to say the things they say here in person.  That is why you say it....makes you feel gooood.

    Case in point.  Matt. Lol
    And you.
    And Double Egger.
    Aww... you're so tough and strong. I bet all the Aldi cashiers want your number.

    This is what I imagine nailing a brisket feels like.  I've never done it, but this is my hope.

    Definite holy grail material, JIC gets this 9 out of 10 times.

    Congratulations @Durangler, you're brisket was on point, best yet IMO.
    Thank you .. I withheld the "draping over the knife image"  ;)
    In order to win the grand prize, for documenting and determining the perfect brisket, we're gonna need to see this pic.  As you know, from the brisket gods, it's the best indicator.  ;)

    I'd even take a proper chuck over a perfect brisket any day of the week.  With taters, ernyins, and carrots, even it, goes far beyond one dimension.

    It's never too late to quit.

    You definitely cannot say I didn't try.

    That's the best thing you've said, this entire thread.

    The only cut that trumps a boot brisket, is the everloving, overrated, tenderloin.  

    It's not completely rock bottom, so there's that, going for it.  You guys will see, some day, if you chose not to stagnate.  I'm just trying to help speed that up.

    If you have to buy a $200 SRF to increase your odds, and even that's not a guarantee, there are beating your head on the brisket wall issues.  Defending that, is hilarious.

    I like both beef ribs and chuck roast better than brisket. I like the higher fat content in general though.

    If you could troll a little harder or smarter, that would make this more fun.  Maybe check out some YouTube comments for tips or something.
