    @Botch I usually don't get much of a ring when using the egg. So this was by far the best one I have gotten. I will say that I have used celery seed 2 cooks in a row ( the last was on a stick burner - not mine ) and have had similar results.

    And I had better, longer lasting smoke...

    I will add...the best brisket that I have ever cooked...had no ring at all

    @JohnInCarolina That’s an awesome looking sandwich brother. I’d give up a whole pack of TP for one of those right now.

    Thank you my friend!  That is the highest of compliments in these troubled times!

    After the smoked salmon was done yesterday I did a couple strip steaks for dinner. Today I smoked another big salmon filet. When I pulled it off I threw on a dozen chicken legs for a nice slow smoke. Bird meat. It’s what’s for dinner.

    Home made whole wheat bread, sriracha aioli, brisket point, fried egg.  As the kids say... this did not suck.

    Not egg cooked (since my farking bands blew up yesterday) but we made spaghetti sauce with some more venison. Pretty cool to eat dinner and I can look out the window and see the spot where my meat came from.

    If you're reading this thread and haven't made the brisket chili (from Salado) recipe yet, you really have to do it when you get a chance.  It is so, so good.
    Agreed. It’s awesome. It is a little spicy per the recipe though. First timers should cut some of the heat and then add it back to taste.

    I’ve got a brisket on that stalled at 142F for 5.5hrs. Just moved to 144F so I’m hoping to get the bark set.  Maybe the next stall won’t be so rough. No worries if it doesn’t taste like crap. I’ve got all the time in the world today.

    Oatmeal molasses bread. Not Egged. 


    Dude.  If you toast a slice of that and take a pic of it with melted butter on it, I might have to ignore all travel recommendations and come find you.  Just sayin'

  • Thanks all. Wish I could take credit, but this was in fact my wife’s doing. I provided the moral support and helped keep the kids at bay for the prep. 

    The backstory to this bread may in fact make for an interesting thread. I’ll see if I can put something together.

    I just bought a 6.5 pound Boston Butt. I plan to smoke it Friday with Albukirky Sweet Red and pecan, maple, or apple as the available woods. Then carry it to my folks out of town. I need to till the garden for them and run any errands for them . 

  • Ha ha. Based on what’s left at our store I would say you are right on the money. #wearallitaliannow

  • 19 hours on this brisket at 275-300F. A test of patience for sure. 


    19 hours to cook it. 90 seconds to inhale it.

    Can’t do that. I need to conserve toilet paper.
