I picked up two briskets on sale for $2.49/lb over the weekend.
I preheated the smoker to 250 F. Vent wide open.
Trimmed and rubbed the briskets.
Rub is simple: Black & white flavor crystals plus garlic and onion powder.
After I put the meat into the smoker, I lowered my temp to 215 F.
Going to get three hours of smoke. More to come later, this is going to take a while.  :)

Look like some good eats coming your way Pens

Be careful about calling yourself and EXPERT! An ex is a has-been, and a spurt is a drip under pressure!

I am your long lost brother,  yeah, yeah.....
Thats it
Your brother is looking for his briskett too
cant wait.

Nice looking, the briskett that is
Did not see a pic of your sis ...... ::)
All I wanted to do was slow smoke some ribs.  Another addiction created thanks to the Bradley that requires regular servicing...  But what an addiction to have.  Even better to share here with some of the best people on the planet.

Would you like smoke with that sir ?

Ok, it got done about 8PM last night, I let it cool to 140 IT in a warm oven. Then seperated the point from the flat and cleaned up the remaining fat.
This morning I sliced the flats and packaged up. One package going to my dad and 3 vac packed and into the freezer for me later.  ;D
I put the sliced flat for my sister into a big zip bag and the point in another bag for her. I also gave her some of the remaining juice to use for reheating.
I kept the rest of the juice for me and dad.
Right now I have my point in a pot with some juice reheating, I'm going to pull/chop this for sandwiches. Mmmmm.
I did get one pic of my finished flat, all sliced and ready for packaging.

Thanks everyone.  :)
I just had a sandwich from the point and it is fantastic.  ;D
I know my sisters family and my dad will be real happy.
I just wished I was not laid off where I could have bought a couple more brisket for later, but thats the way it goes.  :(
