I thought I'd give brisket a try. Used Memphis Pit Grill Mates by McCormick for my dry rub. Let sit over night in the fridge, and then injected it with concentrated beef broth.
Used willow and red oak for my smoke on the performer (at 250'-degrees)
I had to slice in half, as one end was very thick, the other very thin, so I could bbq the larger end longer. Here we are at the half-way point (about 4 hour in)
Off and resting for a bit
sliced up and ready for some Sweet Baby Rays
pretty good smoke ring, and very moist. I think the beef bouilion injection help the moisture and flavor.
I did wrap in foil @ the halfway point (4-hours in), and added some pepsi, butter and bbq sauce to keep moist. I'd say a good 1st attempt at the ole brisky.
Thanks for looking.
Peace from Nor Cal.

. Never tried willow before what's it like?
That is really nice looking and you nailed the smoke ring!! How did you like that McCormicks?? I haven't seen that mixture around here. Like the Sweet Baby Ray's for what it is worth.....probably the only sauce I like to buy in the markets.........unless I can find Cattlemans...........
