So a lot of what I have learned about BBQing and grilling I have learned from friends and family. Watching my father and uncles cook growing up, I have learned a lot. I try to pass on what I know to my younger friends and become somewhat of the go to guy whenever people have questions about outdoor cooking. BUT... I have never ever ever cooked a brisket nor observed anyone cook one. Guess it's just not a popular thing in my neck of the woods, so I have come here for some help.
So I plan on smoking a packer. I have done a lot of research on here and other online resources and am probably going to follow the amazingribs recepie. found here http://amazingribs.com/recipes...f/texas_brisket.html Of course I will improvise a bit because thats what BBQ is all about.
My question is about the point/flat. I guess if i'm understanding this right once brisket is done, the point is removed. I think I plan on making some burnt ends, but to me it seems like that leaves a lot of the brisket without bark. What are some techniques I can try to provide maximum bark area on most of the brisket? Am I overthinking this too much? Thanks for any advice you can give.
