Picked up a 12 lb brisket I thought I was going to save for the next few weeks till some family comes in to town but just could not wait. Been off work for almost a month now and have only fired up "Old Joe" one time so far so I figured "CAVIAT EMPTOR!" Is that right? Sposed to mean " Season the Brisket" or something like that. Here it is either way.
Rubbed with PlowBoy's Bovine Bold. LOVE the stuff. I bought the 5 lb bag!
I will follow up with pics throughout the smoke. I like the looks of this piece of meat as most briskets I do are in the 14-17lb range and are wider and thinner than this one. I actually sized down 2 lbs from the largest (I usually get the biggest one they have) just because this one was more narrow, but much thicker all the way through the brisket. Might take a little longer but I bet it will be worth it. Thinking I might go back to the market for the "Center Cut Beef Back Ribs" I saw the other day too. Will update as life moves forward.
