17 lb. brisket

[Dave Russell]

I didn't get too many pics, and It's been a LONG time since I had to make so many vent changes in a cook. Clearly, a empty foiled fan cook isn't so easy under a wind advisory. Cooked in the 275-300 range for 11.5 hrs.

Grate hog of a brisket on my 22" early this morning:


Five hours later right before wrapping in paper.



Several slices of the flat gone on plates already, but let's get a pic. After all, it turned out surprisingly well, with a great beefy flavor. The flat slices held together fine, and that's what counts, right? That's what was on my finger. As you can see though, the point fell apart when trying to slice. It was very tender, but still very juicy. I really need to sharpen my knife. Oh well, we're gonna put it on nachos this weekend, anyway.


Thanks for checking it out! Dave
