Gameday Smoking Thread (Brisket 2 Electric Boogaloo)
Good morning y'all!
Today's finally the day! Finally smoking my second brisket. My parents bought an eighth of a cow and gave me the brisket (since they didn't want to mess with it). Its a scrawny little thing, clearly one that was cut in half, but at least I got a decent bit of flat and the part with the point, though the point has been cut off. Still, some good fat on there and I think it will turn out well (plus it's free, so no arguments here).
Edit 1: I've had the brisket on for about an hour now and so far, so good. Unfortunately for some reason I can't find actual logs to save my life in this town, so I have to just use wood chunks today. Its fine, it just means I have to babysit the fire a little more because there's just not enough heft to the chunks to burn. And if I put too many in at a time it just totally bursts up my heat.
