Brisket!!!!!

Been a bit since I smoked a brisket. Couldn’t find what I wanted at Costco so went to a local butcher and was able to find an 11lb packer, choice grade. After trimming and rubbing with Oak Ridge Black Ops, got this going at 2am at 250*. Pulled just after 12pm with everything being probe tender at 195 internal. Had to hold this longer than I wanted and I think that let it get a bit “fall apartish” but still turned out well. Just needed a tad of salt after slicing, need to dry brine next time.

But good stuff!

Looks darn good to me! Nicely done. Brisket nachos are always a favorite in my house with the leftovers.

That does look really good. I have yet to try a full packer, just keep getting 3-4 pound flats or points for the 2 of us. I think a packer would probably cook better.
