5am came way to early this morning. BUT, I bounced out of bed like it was Christmas morning. I even woke my Lab up. He wasn't to happy.
The Setup. Coals were just put in the smoker and a couple of chunks of Hickory placed on top.
Jake wasn't to happy I made him get up. Here he is dozing off.
6am and the brisket hits the grate.
4.5 hours in. Just about to flip the brisket.
Luke and dad playing while I take break after checking the fire.
Luke drooling just thinking about the brisket.
All done. I went ahead and pulled it at 190.
Flavor is a 10 out of 10. tenderness various from 5/10 to 8/10. The thiner part of the brisket dried out a little bit. Not to bad though still good enough to devour.
