    Now cooking in the rain at my brother's. He has a KJ classic and a BGE Mini but no Smokeware cap. Not windy so the foil is working OK for now.

    Thank you,

    Brisket cooks-the most fun you can have with the BGE.  Enjoy the cook and follow-on eats.  Lookin good.

  • Prime Brisket for under $3 a lb.  Shoot me now.

    @JohnInCarolina - Just this past week and for the last few months the local Costco has had prime packers at $2.89-2.99/lb.  So you better have plenty of ammo.  
    BTW enjoy the last of 2016-I am ready for this year to become history (but not for the election result  ;)  )

    This will also keep anyone from reading the briskest's mind. Tinfoil is so useful.

    HEB seems to be on top of this, I picked up a 15# USDA prime brisket for $1.97 per pound a few weeks back.  Since then, they have only been getting USDA Select for the $1.97 price.

    That looks awesome. As long as we're confessing, I did a non-egg brisket today too. On a friend's Akorn because he wanted to learn how to cook a brisket. 

    If if you can find it, and you want to splurge on a brisket, get a prime one from Creekstone Farms. They supply Aaron Franklin. At $4.99/pound it was more expensive than HEB or Costco prime, but much cheaper than Snake River Farms. 

    My friend was at Franklin's a few weeks ago. He said this one was better. We also dropped on a couple of racks of Duroc St. Louis cut ribs.
