Very small brisket, trying to get discussion count up to 1000 for legitamacy purposes.
Comments

The brisket was within two days of the sell-by date. I would not have cooked it.
When in doubt, throw it out.
You could have cooked four sausages and cut a hot dog bun in two and posted those pics instead.
Would have been done sooner and just as close to your 1000 "food oriented" posts.
Not bad though, for an improv'd cook

One technical note I forgot to mention, and this is just what I do, there is no right or wrong here: I normally don't add sugar to my low and slow rubs. Partly this is because I like my savory stuff savory. Another reason is because I find it burns and can get, to me at least, nasty.
In this cook, since it was such a short cook with a ramp from low and slow to almost turbo, I used a rub with sugar because I knew I wouldn't have the time to develop a proper bark. Anyway, it worked as planned. The bark was delicious, although our guest's little kid ate everything but the bark (almost wanted to call him out on that but he's from New Zealand and he gets a pass). ITS THE BEST PART, KID!!!! (I wanted to say, but didn't).
His dad was super cool...his hobbies - fishing and racing cars. He has 8 Porsche race cars. Fkn insane. We hit it off. He showed me a video of him when his brakes failed (trail braking) and he hit a barrier like 20' off the ground. Broke 6 ribs. GoPro worked the whole time. Like I said, I like him.

All of a sudden, I don't feel so good. This forum lacks the emoticons to express that. I SHOULD HAVE COOKED THE HOTDOGS. I mean, I had (correction - HAVE) the mustard.Darby_Crenshaw said:The brisket was within two days of the sell-by date. I would not have cooked it.

I'm dragging the Blackstone griddle to work tomorrow and cooking burgers for the lab. (like 40 people). I mixed up some homemade bacon with burger meat for @Thatgrimguy 's party, but there was so much food, I came back with it uncooked. I did cook the boudin, and when I was leaving, I said - "Hey y'all, chow down on that bag of jerky" (I had made a huge bag of fire hot jerkey from a 13 pound rump roast) One guy goes "Thanks man!" and puts this huge bag of jerky on another huge pile of "go food". It was at the end of the day, I laughed.

Great audible and documentation. SV to victory. Banquet right there. I recall you and @SGH did a high heat ( >400*F ?) brisket at Brisket Camp so clearly you weren't skerred especially with the ramp. Well played.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.

@lousubcap Good memory. We had to lock the place up the night before so everything was done turbo. I know it's not really talked about much but I'm a firm believer in the ramp.
I hit the stall, and it's balls to the wall.

Well, jacked my post count up. Trying to hit 20k. And not wasting the effort on troll threads that end up gettin buffaloed. I'll call it a success. Hit 20k, then blow up like a mushroom cloud, get banned for life, hiatus and introspective on life, more time goes buy, lurk a bit, create a new account, start over, repeat. Reminds me of Stike. Wutever happened to that guy?

I gave it the sous vide head start. Then dried it with a fan so I'd get the early start on bark formation. And it was already around 140 some degrees when it went in the smoker, I didn't have to deal with the condensation.texaswig said:That brisket looks on point . I like those primes when I can get them.

Wet meat = slow bark formation. And a good time.

I've heard about that Y20K problem. After this first cycle I'll lose my neophyteness, right? right? Huh? Right?
