Dat queso looks omnomnomnomnom
10 Bucks a pound is pretty painful for brisket!So I bought a 5.5lb cut of brisket, I think it was a flat cut.
Pretty simple really.... take it out of the vac seal, rinse in cold water, dry with paper towels.
Then inject with beef broth and rub with Sucklebuster's Texas brisket rub.
Put it on the smoker 225-250 until the stall, wrap and keep cooking until internal temp hits 203.
Remove, let it sit for 10 mins and then cut it up.

How long did this take you from start to finish?Was worth it, meat was very good.

My neighbor has a smoker and has been itching to do a brisket, he always wants my help (plus wants someone to drink beer with all day). I've read it can take 10-12 hours to do, which really leaves me out. I could handle 8.5 hours I thought though. At least get it started around 9:30-10, go do something else for a few hours, and then meet up with him and start drinking beers at 1pm or so.About 8.5 hrs

We did a different beef roast earlier this summer.. We did wrap it after 4 hours.. We were approaching 8 hours of cook when a severe thunderstorm started to roll in, so we panicked and pulled it off slightly early..It was still good, but definitely could tell it needed to go to the full 200 degree temp.Have to make sure he wraps it when it stalls for the 8 hour thing. Otherwise it could easily be double that.
What a pansy, can't stand a little humidity.We did a different beef roast earlier this summer.. We did wrap it after 4 hours..

Our next smoke, we just did chickens since it was 4th of July and like 90 degrees out and just wanted something easy. Been waiting for a good weekend we're both free to snag a briskett and attempt it. As I'm getting closer to having an infant around though, my weekends often get filled up going out and buying / looking at baby stuff. Most weekends have been quite humid around here lately though anyways, which disinterests me.
Humidity and I have never gotten along.What a pansy, can't stand a little humidity.
