Rubbed 7lb butts with Bad Byron's and Magic Dust
Brisket(12.4lb) rub was XYRN2B's RES-Q Rub Beef:silly:
No shiny stuff used during production bubba tim ;)

Pulled brisket when fork tender, let rest for about 3 hours while pulling the pork. I think the carryover dried out the tapered end of the flat? Next time I may try to select a packer with more uniform thickness. Or chop and add the smaller end of the flat into the burnt ends :woohoo:


Used Rondezvous BBQ Sauce for the burnt ends, my favorite part of the cook B)

    I think we all have our works in progress, if we didn't life would be so simple. I have rub recipes that will always be works in progress I think.

    I haven't tried a brisket yet so you are ahead of me. I am on a very tight budget and every time I look at ribs I see a huge pile of bones that I am paying for so I haven't done ribs yet either. LOL, those are my works not yet even in progress. I have a long ways to go. Now that rib eye steak tonight was perfect!

    Also, you don't use the first 3 to 5 inches for pics. The end is the driest part as you found out. Nice smoke ring.

    The shine on the outside is not from being wet. It is the way I make the bark. :woohoo:

    Gator Bait,
    When you decide to try brisket, check Walmart for packers. They were $1.80/lb

    Thanks XYRN2B, I have been wondering where to look for packers, I have seen a lot of small flats around here but no packers.
