When I put my rub onto my brisket, I noticed it had a "tail end" that was quite a bit thinner than the "head end". When I wrapped it I folded about 2 inches of the tail to be the same thickness as the rest of the brisket (trying for uniformity). After a 24 hour stand in the reefer, the meat took the shape and appears to be quite uniform across all of the brisket.
Has anyone else done this? I'm also curious ... I put rub inside the fold but there isn't going to be any direct heat on it. Any ideas whether this going to be powdery/chalky or odd flavored?
