I started the Easter dinner cook. A 13.5# brisket and Egrets Maple Bourbon Ham.

The Brisket after trimming

The Fat side

Injected with beef broth Worcestershire sauce and EVOO and rubbed With Cow Lick

Then painted with a thin coat of prepared Mustard.

And then to the awaiting Smoking Egg.

Enough food to feed an army which will be pretty close about 20+ family and friends.

    Good looking brisket. Mine went on about 10:00 trying to feed 29 with 27LBS precooked. Hope to have about 13.5 when finished. If they look that good when done I'll consider it a sucess. Thanks for sharing Eddie.

    Family can be great guinea pigs. :evil: They will tell you if it is good or not and be honest and to the point. :ohmy: The sises paw in law (A Southern Texan) was even impressed. :) Thanks to a little quality coaching from Crimsongator. :) The brisket turned out tender and juicy and you could cut it with a fork. :woohoo: The bark was darker than expected but tasty. It took 16 hours at 225-235 degrees. The Maple Bourbon Ham was also a big hit, Thanks again Egret and Gene. :)
