Smoked a brisket for this weekend. It has been a looooooong time since I had done one.
On Thursday we trimmed the brisket, then seasoned it with the rub, after which we slathered some Dijon mustard on it:

We then wrapped it in plastic wrap and let it sit overnight in the 'fridge.
I put the brisket in the smoker at 6:30 last night. It smoked for four hours with mesquite. Then it continued in the smoker until 3:45 this morning.

We then wrapped it in plastic wrap, covered it with towels, and placed it in a cooler:

FINALLY, we went to bed........what kept me awake during this entire process was some oatmeal stout from a local microbrewery. :)
Around 10:00 this morning, I unwrapped the towels.

We then took off the plastic wrap, separated the flat from the point, and then cut up some of the flat.
