Only commercial rubs I like are:
oakridge game bird for chicken
oak ridge competition beef and pork for butts
dizzy tsunami spin
and a few of the dizzy-ish variations for fun. fajita, Bombay curry are my faves. I buy the big bottles of those 2
90% of the time I use the homemade rub though. I use it on everything that I smoke.

Funny thing- im doing the brisket and she’s doing everything else. My cook will be done at 9 am (11am class). She’s going to be cooking 3 things live for an hour and a half while I crack jokes. Then I get to slice the brisket and everyone goes oooooooh!The Cen-Tex Smoker said:

The Hibiscus/Mint/Watermelon salad caught my eye, too. Would you be willing to share the recipe, or at least a pic?

That price is a steal for a class with that meal included! Looking forward to hearing about the experience of teaching and the reactions of the students to that SRF brisket!LBGE/Weber Kettle/Blackstone 36" Griddle/Turkey Fryer/Induction Burner/Royal Gourmet 24" Griddle/Cuisinart Twin Oaks/Pit Boss Tabletop pellet smoker/Instant Pot

How ‘bout live streaming for your pals on the forum?

I wanna see someone stand up and say "that's not how you cook a brisket. I hang out on a BGE forum, and there's this guy Travis..."#1 LBGE December 2012 • #2 SBGE February 2013 • #3 Mini May 2013A happy BGE family in Houston, TX.

More importantly, do you mop with A1 sauce at the end, or serve on the side?#1 LBGE December 2012 • #2 SBGE February 2013 • #3 Mini May 2013A happy BGE family in Houston, TX.

Holy Crap! Class was fun. Total ass-kicker start to finish but a good day. I thought the brisket sucked which was disappointing. By far the worst SRF I've ever done. I think it was over but it had just loosened up when I pulled it. I was hawking it degree-by-degree too. Not sure where it went wrong. Didn't even look right. Tasted like Pot Roast to me too- very little smoke. Everyone said it was good but I was really disappointed in how it turned out. Janell slayed as usual. Sides were on point and overall very fun. We ran an hour over there were so many questions. We had fun and I think the people got their money's worth. I have a very nice Meyer All natural brisket that I demo'd how to trim and prep it in class that I'm doing for tomorrow (no class, just didn't want a $55 brisket to go to waste). Hopefully it turns out better but I'm just dropping that off for them to slice up when they get busy.
Overall a fun day. Was like running a very busy lunch counter service for 3 hours! came home, cleaned the house, baked a cake for #2 son's 19th bday and now off to dinner and a movie. No rest for the weary!
We may or may not have had a spy taking photos and videos

@The Cen-Tex Smoker thanks for the summary. You firing the BGE or dishwasher for that brisket? I'm guessing an early AM start or will it be a turbo cook?Louisville; Rolling smoke in the neighbourhood. Life is too short for light/lite beer! Seems I'm livin in a transitional period.

Brother Tex, first off, a big thumbs up for offering your time to help folks out. That speaks volumes my friend.The Cen-Tex Smoker said:

Second, I bet that the brisket was better than you say. We are usually our own worst critics. Especially when trying to show or demonstrate something to a crowd.
If the brisket really tasted like pot roast as you say, I’m shocked myself. I haven’t had it happen with a SRF even when I overcooked them. But I guess stranger things have and can happen.
Again, a big thumbs up for taking the time to help get folks on the right track. Sounds like a great time was had by all.Location- Just "this side" of Biloxi, Ms.

The greatest barrier against all wisdom, the stronghold against knowledge itself, is the single thought, in ones mind, that they already have it all figured out. -
Sounds like y'all knocked it out of the park. I had faith in Janell keeping things on track

I would have eaten every bit of that pot roast that you would have let me have.

Like running a very busy lunch counter service with the worst SRF brisket ever. Still a win as a pot roast.Sandy Springs & Dawsonville Ga
