I picked up some Carolina Treet and wondered if anyone uses it in place of slathered CYM prior to smoking?
How about injecting it in brisket?
Yes to both! Comes out great!
I have to disagree with my friend squirt. As a slather, yes but I wouldn't inject.
CT is a cooking sauce. Unlike CYM, there's no mustard.
While I love CT, I like to taste the beef not just the CT and that's why I wouldn't inject. In a pork butt, sure.
Also be aware that CT contains wheat flour. I tried to use it in a sauce a while back. When the sauce came to a boil it turned into pudding; the flour kicked in.
I have to slightly retract my earlier statement... I've only injected butts and split chicken breasts with CT. But I've slathered everything under the sun with it.
oakrdrzfan,
If you want to inject the brisket, you might try plain old low sodium beef broth. It might add a bit of flavor and keep the meat moister. FYI: I haven't done it.
HIJACK - How are your cats squirt?
Growing like weeds, thanks for asking. ;D
thanks all. I will just slather the brisker with CT and wait to inject a butt.

Sounds like a plan. You don't want to introduce too much to the brisket party, all at once..
