My first whole packer!

I was very impressed with the quality of the meat. I've never tried sterling silver cuts! Wow! I cooked it at 300 dome for about 10-11 hours! It probed like butter. I made burnt ends for the first time as well...they were a hit. Its tough to find whole packers down here in Miami. Thanks for all your help on this site...couldn't do it without you guys!

Looks great. Restaurant Depot has a location in Miami and they should have packer briskets at a great price. They are on sale up here at RD for $2.95/pound right now.

@rmercier, it's a whole brisket - it includes the leaner flat (often sold separately) and the fattier point (rarely sold separately).XXL BGE, Karebecue, Klose BYC, Chargiller Akorn Kamado, Weber Smokey Mountain, Grand Turbo gasser, Weber Smoky Joe, and the wheelbarrow that my grandfather used to cook steaks from his cattle

@smokehouse , Restaurant Depot requires a free membership. They will give you a membership if you run any kind of business (doesn't have to be food oriented). If you have friends that run a business you might be able to use their paperwork to get a membership. You can always join the Kansas City BBQ Society which will get you a free day pass to Restaurant Depot any time you want to go in. The meat department is incredible - just bring a coat (even in Miami).Smokehouse33 said:Thanks for letting me know @Shiff I'll look into it. I paid 6.99 for a 10 lbs!
