First brisket

[Kurt]

Ok ok yinz guys, I know it is only a flat... But a lil short on time and money .. So I figured some brisket is betta than no brisket... So I basically followed the "wet rub" instructions from the virtual bullet site, what a great reference it is...

About a 4 lb flat... Lightly trimmed..

Wet rub...

All lathered up by my 5 yr old son... He thought this was awesome

My boys new t shirts that they picked out from the outlets last weekend..
The wanna know "show me where the bacon, ribs and pulled pork come from."

Ready to fire up the WSM with some hickory for smoke n'at...

Gonna do a tray of doctored up beans and a few sweets as well

Brisket on at 1115 am... Wanted to get on at 10 am but sometimes things don't go as planned

Rain rain and wind go away... My hillbilly wind and rain shelter..

Smoker locked in at 250 and I.t. At 142 f around 1.5 hours in... Not sure if foiling or not... Gonna wait and see how quickly the cook goes and when the lil yinzers start gettin hungry n'at..

Get a few more pics later on...

Your off to a good start...

My new grill rag... Yinz can use these things for everything around the Burgh... Dust rags, garage rags, at football games, napkins at tailgates, heck they could probly be used for money in some neighborhoods... Found 10 of these at a garage sale Dahn in sl'iberty for $20...

Oh yeah, let's go Bucs!

Looking good so far Kurt!

I put the rub on the meat side and cook fat side down first and will flip it fat up when in the foil.

Yinz might try that next time if yinz wants. Either way brisket will come out awesome.

I could have used that hillbilly shelter yesterday

Nothing wrong with a flat if that's all you can find(or afford) hope it comes out nice. It all LOOKS great , anyway. Good luck , man.

 

[Kurt]

Just ate and it was pretty good for a first time effort . A lil dry not quite super tender..small smoke ring... But overall extremely satisfied ...
Any day not at work , home with the kids and Gots the WSM goin is a good day in my book!

Time to rest

Beans r done !

Sauce no. 5 gettin happy

Plated....

My 5 yr old had 7 slices this size! I think he liked his "biscuit" as he called it..

Thanks yinz guys for lookin n'at!

Bet yinz'd like that brisket between two slices of Mancini's, with some fries, tomatoes, 'n slaw. If I was your neighbor, I'd be headed dahn to eat some of that food (6-er of Arn in hand, of course).
