Found a new rub recipe on the evil egg site. Wanted to give it a try. Ended up with a 18 lb choice packer from Walmart for $2.34 a lb. Very cheap for our part of the country. A guy on the evil egg site spent 6 years perfecting this recipe. I trimmed the brisket down & dropped 4 lbs of fat. Put the rub on lightly as stated by his directions. Wrapped in cling wrap then foil for 24 hrs.
Here we are opening the 14 lb monster up.

Here is the pit getting its heat on. Loaded with Stubbs & Kingsford white bag.

Brisket is loaded in the pit.

Here she is out of the pit. @ 165 ready to foil. Smells guud!

Brisket removed from foil after it reached 200. Beautiful color.


Sliced up nicely. Nice smoke ring. Blue is waiting for her bites.
Here is the wifes plate, came out beautiful. Great smoke ring & flavor.

Plenty of leftovers. The wife is having a get together with her friends tomorrow and they all wanted brisket.

The rub was a big hit. Will use it again for sure. If anyone is interested here it is, thought we'd share.
4 TBSP kosher salt or course salt
6 tsp black pepper
6 tsp paprika
2 tsp. cayenne pepper
3 tsp. ground cumin
3 tsp. granulated garlic
3/4 C. Montreal steak Seasoning
Wrap in plastic wrap then foil for at least 24hrs in fridge, don't cake the rub on.
Thanks for looking
Have a guud weekend everyone.
Go Broncs & rip the pack next Sunday! lol
 
Wow Russ, that looks great! Thanks for sharing the recipe. I've never done a brisket but if I do I'm going to try this one.
 
WOW!!! That is one nice piece of meat and you did a fantastic job. I'll take a plate of that and thanks for sharing the recipe for the rub.
 
I love the look of your brisket Russ. Now I want to cook one myself. Thanks for the rub recipe too. Looks good!
 
You do pretty good my friend, that Brisket is to die for. Thanks for the recipe. Cumin has been one of my secret ingredients for Brisket for awhile.
 
Looks great!!! I'm about due for another brisket cook. Might try the rub. Hopefully... the brisket will turn out as well as yours.
Your wife's friends are in for a treat.
 
Terrific results, Russ! Holy cow, that is one well defined smoke ring…almost looks like someone took a red Sharpie and colored in the edges of each slice.
