That is a tease, what about the details?  What do you mean flat?  Brisket flat?

Yes brisket flat, dry brined in cure and  brown sugar for  6 days , then rubbed with real maple ,let that set for a day. Then into the smoker with half and half apple, hickory wood. Cold smoked for four hours @ 85 degrees, then slowly bumped the heat up every couple hours untill box temp was 200 degrees and internal temp reached 150 degrees.

Combining brisket and bacon may blow my mind.  I'm going to come back to this when I get a little time to have some fun.

Personally  I love the flavor, it's smoky and a little salty , now if someone  wanted or expected it to taste like pork bacon they would  be disappointed.  But if you want something  that's tasted in my opinion delicious because  it's different  and made from beef I think you would  really  like it.

I think it tastes great, it's very mild so it's not overwhelming  at all.
