Happy 4th everyone and a special thanks to all that served this great country!!
Friends coming over so did a brisket (flat only), a couple of tri-tips and some ABTs.
Started this morning with the brisket flat from Costco that was rubbed last night with pepper, garlic, seasoned salt, kosher salt, paprika, chili powder and a little bit of cayenne.
Warning!! This is the "One Bad". It was my first brisket so there is much room for improvement.


Used the HH method with some hickory and apple.


Temp on the lid was already at 140 just from sitting on the pavers!

Left on at 350 for 2.5 hours and then in an aluminum pan covered in foil for another 2.5 hours. Turned out mighty dry off the smoker and actually gained a little juice after foiled and wrapped in towels in the cooler for 3 hours. Still looked very dry and tasted much the same. Was bearable to eat after adding some Pappy's Sweet Baby Jane sauce. Like I said...it can only get better from here.

Now the staple! Some ABT's went on while the brisket was in the cooler. On the left with jalapenos and beef little smokies. On the right with yellow chili peppers and turkey little smokies for those not down with the hot of the jalapeno.

Finished off with some Pappy's Sweet Baby Jane sauce. Turned out great!!
