First brisket today
I know right? I have cooked a hundred if not 200 ribs, pork, beef, sausages, everything but never wanted to do a brisket. Sorry Texans, I have just never been too in love with them. I've had some awesome brisket, just never cared.
So instead of me doing it, I made a rub and let it marinate for 4 days (some **** came up, couldn't cook it when I first intended) and today I am making my 16 year old do it while I am at work. LOL I am using Mesquite, which I NEVER do anymore. I haven't used mesquite in years but I think it will compliment the rub pretty well. If it turns out good I'll give up the rub ingredients. Here's what 4 days of a rub looks like.
2.3 lb
Start off smoker at 220*, looking for internals of 190*-195* and then wrap in aluminum foil until I get home. Guessing a 3-4 hour event. Making him start at 1PM (meat out of fridge at 12PM)
