Such as it is a bust so far here...
Anyway, egg is steady at about 230 and the brisket is happy. I injected it with some Herb-ox beef broth; rubbed it with olive oil, and gave it a good coating of sea salt, garlic powder, cracked black pepper, and some Tasty Licks brisket rub...
Seeing how this snow is being really lame; I don't think I'll be heading out for picture taking later.
So... I guess that means I can open that bottle of Woodford Double Oak and enjoy my first taste of that.
Here are some pics. Had to drape the meat over my rib rack to get it too fit.

Before the Woodford kicks in what are you using for the smoke? Have a great cook Hap and stay safe.

Did you soak the chips in snow??? :-/

What do you mean "before the Woodford kicks in"? What? You don't think I can say "**** MF'in hickory, that's who!"
Thanks @Scottborasjr... I always do my best to stay safe. If I'm going to drink like an adult, I should at least act like one

Looks like a good piece of meat. Are you going to do any burnt ends? Glad you have the Woodford to keep you warm.

Never did ends yet.. Might have too this time.danjamd said:Looks like a good piece of meat. Are you going to do any burnt ends? Glad you have the Woodford to keep you warm.

Thank you @smokesniffer
@MrCookingNurse... It was just a hair over 12 pounds. After several hours and some shrinkage (the brisket not me) I'll probably take the rack out.

@Hapster-looking forward to your take on the Double Oaked-it has displaced the Van Winkle's 12 and 15 year old for me. But to each his own...regardless, looks like a great cook and evening-and if the weather gods give you a pass then so much the better!Louisville; Rolling smoke in the neighbourhood. # 38 for the win. Life is too short for light/lite beer! Seems I'm livin in a transitional period.

Thanks Cap! I have to say its pretty good. Has a slightly heavier mouth feel if that makes sense, and a deeper, warmer finish. Me like...lousubcap said:@Hapster-looking forward to your take on the Double Oaked-it has displaced the Van Winkle's 12 and 15 year old for me.

The stick so far in the first 3rd is nice and smooth and compliments the bourbon nicely.

Just poured a glass (on two rocks). Glad it's passing the initial taste test for you-you will have a great night and when the brisket hits the finish-line life will be that much better. Sure wish packers were easily available in the land of Kentucky Jelly!Louisville; Rolling smoke in the neighbourhood. # 38 for the win. Life is too short for light/lite beer!

That's prolly the only "meat shrinkage" that could be positive. It's a game changer any other day!_______________________________________________XLBGE

Great looking cook @hapster. Thanks for the mini review of the doubled oak. I have a bottle arriving Wednesday to my local go to place.

Hap, are you napping? You haven't posted since 1am. I need a progress update.
-
Not napping... Slept like a baby and slept in till 8am. Went out to check the egg; temp still pegged on 230 despite the howling wind and no gasket. The IT is at 179. No idea if I'm in the stall, through it, or it never happened.
Question; when should I pull it for the FTC portion?
