2 Briskets, Ribs and Super bbq beans

Long time since my last post.
This past 29th we had a big family party at our home. I made 2 briskets ( 16 lb. choice and 13 lb. SRF). Cooked mostly at 230, oak Wood for smoke. Injected with 50/50 au juice and beef base a la Myron and for the rub I used a Classic rub with paprika, garlic, onion, cayenne and celery seed (plus a Little rudy´s rub) Both very good.
The beans were amazing. 1 kilo of pinto beans, then added to the water pork belly, sausage, onion, garlic and tomatoes and 1 Guinness beer. And when the brisket was done, a Little bit of brisket in cubes as well. Key factor, prepare the night before, and then before reheating put a couple of cups of beans (with everything, except maybe the brisket if not ready) to the blender and then throw back to add consistency to the base and heat again adding parsley and half a cup of BBQ sauce.
Once the first brisket was out I threw a couple of st louis ribs. I try the famous 3x2x1 but I basted during the first three hours and at the end they were way too soft for my taste, I prefer them not falling of the bone.
All in all, great success.
Salud!

What an undertaking and great outcome across the board. Congrats on bringing it all home.
Edit: Was there a difference in the taste and texture between the two briskets?Louisville; Rolling smoke in the neighbourhood. Life is too short for light/lite beer! Seems I'm livin in a transitional period. CHEETO (aka Agent Orange) makes Nixon look like a saint. -
Thanks Sir. They both tasted more or less the same, but the SRF was crearly softer/tender...
