Early 2016 Memorial Day Brisket with Q-View

austin buckeye · May 27, 2016

decided to start my Memorial Day Brisket on Saturday (well, I guess Friday since that is when I seasoned the brisket).

Found out that the local Randals had a sale on brisket, $1.99 lbs for choice whole packers.

at 230 pm trimmed the fat cap to 1/4" and seasoned with a dalmatian rub, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, fajita seasoning, etc...

Stayed up late last night to watch the Cavs win. Didn't get the brisket on until 5am. Oh well. 67 degrees at 5am in Austin Texas with 78% humidity. Cruising at 245* in the chamber

Brisket doubled wrapped in foil and folded into 3 Mexican blankets.

After an hour of rest, I decided to make burnt ends for the first time. (I hope no one in Texas is reading this). Separated the point from the flat and wrapped the flat for another 2 hour rest.

Cut the point into 1 inch cubes and dusted with rub and sauced with Franklin's BBQ sauce

Burnt ends back on a 250* smoker for about 1.5 hours with a little apple wood and oak wood. See you in an hour and a half

tropics · May 28, 2016

Looking good I'll be back after it has its' siesta
