    In my own humble opinion, there is nothing more fun than a brisket cook. 
    Hope yours is just as fun and turns out to your satisfaction.
    Great start.....

    taste was great but flat was a little dry.  The rest of it as I was cutting it up was fantastic!  I did get a little pimp from my wife and mother who noticed a little kick from the Cow Lick.  I loved it but will probably tame it down next Brisket.  I
