Last night we worked on tostacos. Not quite tacos but not tostadas. Started out with a brisket. I cut in half and smoked the flat only.

Seasoned only with lawrys seasoned salt and webers Chicago steak.

Made sure I had plenty of refreshments for this cook.

I let the wsm run at what ever temp it wanted. Foiled pan all vents open. It was between 300-325.

When it hit 160 I wrapped tightly and let it ride until 195. Checked for tenderness and was there yet. It was perfect @ 213. All the liquid was from the flat. The fat cap must of melted away.

I had a slice and it was delicious. I almost wanted to backout of making the tostacos. No lie one of the best piece of brisket I had.

The brisket was not cut against the grain.

Then we made a sauce. Just California chiles brought a quick boil and added salt. Of to the blender they go. This will be used to slightly fry the small tortillas.

Tortillas were dipped in the sauce and the CI had a little oil.

Wow Tony the Brisket looks great! Another A+ meal. I'll take a plate please. Everything looks wonderful.
 
I was thinking wow restaurant quality. But really no way you could ever get that at a restaurant. The time it took to prepare then Maribels plating. I think that is the coolest thing I have seen. Going to be hard to top this one Tony and Maribel.
 
The Grill Master of L.A strikes again. That is a stunning and I know delicious plate my friend.

School is out for the day Gent's
 
I am digging this cook T&M. Shredded brisket is delicious. And love the technique in frying the tortillas! I bet it was tasty!
 
Seeeeeeeeeee, now this is what made me do a cook in the low teens last night! The Dude and his Lady! Outstanding!
