Prime Brisket

[Matt in MD]

Happiness is stopping by the local butcher and finding this prime beauty. I'm going to shoehorn it on my smoker and cook it tonight! I'll add pics if all goes well.

6 bucks a pound? still danggumgood for prime!

Good luck Matt!

 

[Dustin Dorsey]

I'm jealous! Good luck!

 

[Bob Correll]

Should be great!
Would like to know how it was packed on tomorrow's date though.

Can't wait to see that bad boy all chopped up. Maryland is going to be smelling good tonight.

 

[Bob Bass]

Hope Matt slices the flat and creates burnt ends from the point.

 

[Bob Ivey]

Looks like a great brisket Matt. Can't wait to see picks of the cook and plated.

Hey, they're butchers, not accountants

Hope Matt slices the flat and creates burnt ends from the point.

that's the plan!

this is also my first time using an ATC (cyberq) so my fingers are crossed.

A friend of mine just purchase one from the same butcher! Can't wait to hear how it turns out.

 

[Matt in MD]

It's coming along! Took it off and wrapped it at 170 degrees, and added more fuel and water.

Done after about 14 hours:

Right before wrapping and going into the cooler after dropping to 160:

Put the point back on for some burnt ends and skillet nachos later:

Nice cook on that brisket Matt!

 

[Bruno]

Very nice!

 

[Bob Ivey]

That brisket looks first rate. Any pics of it sliced? Can't wait.

 

[Matt in MD]

Here's a few pics - it came out great and is falling apart tender! Already had nachos, have a bag vacuum sealed in the freezer and burnt ends are still cooking. Thanks for looking!

 

[V_Rocco]

Darn, does that ever look good!

 

[Steve_Williams]

Wow that looks delicious!

 

[Adam aka DocAutomatic]

What temp did you cook it at?

 

[Matt in MD]

225.

I used a cyberQ and basically set it and went to sleep. I will definitely be using the cyberQ for anything overnight from now on. I do like manually adjusting the vents for cooks when I am home and awake, but the cyberQ held this thing damn close to 225 from about 7 pm until 8 or 9 the next morning when I added some fuel and water.
