Ya got me on that one. This brisket was the complete opposite, It was cooking so fast, had to to turn the heat down so it wasn't done at 3 this morning.

By the way, how long does your old butt take?

I thought it was 38?

Felt more like 48! ::)

HES, that was alot of fun when you have friends to add to the smoke fun

The fun is what it's all about. I wind up giving away about 90% of what I smoke just because of that.

Is it done yet?

Naw, man, I can't go... gotta stay here and tend this butt I'm smokin'...
I thought you just smoked a butt day before yesterday?

I started with this. 13.13lbs

I seasoned it with: Fine grind sea salt, crushed black pepper, seasoned pepper, and a dabbling of jan's rub.

This pic looks like a "Brisket Alligator"

It seems like a week ago, but I put it in at around 4:00 and gave it 5 hrs of hickory smoke on 220 heat.

This pic is around midnite.

I turn Gabi down to 190 during the nite and got a cpl hrs sleep.
Turned it back up this morn to 220. IT this morn was 180.
Here's a picture at 9:00.

I've got a 9 pound chuck roast going in tonight, but I wish it was that brisket instead!

I got a bag of 17th Street Magic Dust yesterday. I think I'm going to slather the chuck and a 8 lb pork butt w/ yellow mustard, and hit the chuck with the Magic Dust, and the butt with some Bad Byron's Butt Rub.

(the butt is for a diabetic coworker, so I need to keep the sugar off of it)

I really don't know if it makes any difference, but when I do put mustard (or other liquids) on mine, I like to put some seasoning on it first and let it sit and liquify before the mustard and then more seasoning.

I tamed the "Aligator Brisket".

I foiled it only and gonna that bad boy in a couple hrs.

HawkeyeSmokes · December 04, 2009, 10:16:19 AM

Looks good there CRG. And I just got done eating a couple brisket sandwiches. Now your making me want more!

Pachanga · December 04, 2009, 10:26:45 AM

CRG,

You did indeed tame the alligator. I like the analogy and the alligator photo.

Nice post.

Good luck and slow smoking,

Pachanga
