Brisket Pics

Here are my latest brisket pics. Looked good and tasted good, just not as tender as I wanted. I think I smoked it too long, and there wasn't alot of fat on it. Beans tasted good, but didn't cook quite long enough. Guess I gotta keep on tryin'5 Jun Brisket
 
It looks really good - and that smoke ring looks like icing on a cake. (A cake made of beef of course...)

How long did you let it rest for before you cut it?

Susan, I have been wondering for a while and I just have to ask... what does your signature line say? Is that Latin? I think it expresses some sort of gratitude for a drink or something!

Probably wrong, but I am curious.

Kevin. That's the thickest flat I think I've seen. Looks great!

Loren, his name sounded familiar so I searched and he is a poet. I assume Susans signature is this piece of his work...

Thanks to all for the compliments.

Art-I got the bean recipe from a new cookbook (Barbecue, Biscuits, and Beans: Chuckwagon Cooking by Bill Cauble, Cliff Teinert, Tommy Lee Jones, Watt Matthews Casey) and it is 2# of soaked, cleaned pintos, 2 yellow onions cut up, 1 tblsp on garlic powder, 1 tlbsp of crushed red pepper, black pepper and salt to taste and 1 ham hock (you just can't cook beans w/o ham hocks!!). Brought to a boil, put on smoker untill done. Ham hock got ALOT of flavor from brisket above.

Well done grasshunter. Ogden was cool but rejected by the elete poets. He had much to say about women (and not just those in the vanites). For example: "An occasional lucky guess as to what makes a wife tick is the best a man can hope for, Even then, no sooner has he learned how to cope with the tick than she tocks." Ogden Nash

That is very interesting; although, philosophically speaking, those mysterious female ticks and tocks are also shared by males/husbands. The challange for husbands and wives is to learn how to tick and tock in unison rather than at off intervals. Usually wifee is ticking while hubby is tocking!

Spouses have to get in sync with each other; this of course takes time, patience, committment and love - things that our society too often take for granted unfortunately.

Just my non-bbq thoughts; unless, of course I get "grilled" on what I just said!
