Halved a flat, halve in pops brine for a project and half in a dry marinade and vac sealed for tomorrows game.

Mini cook I think. Hickory wood and RO lump.
 
Well. It was good and tender but I think another hour would have made it better. Smoked with hickory in my mini for 6 hours.









It was still very juicy, nice smoke flavor and the marinate I think really helped with the taste and moisture of this small flat.
 
I do a lot of experiments when I cook lol. Brisket is definitely my weak point but out of all of the things I try I still think the best ones I've produced have came from simple SPOG rub cooked slow. That's still my personal favorite.

Thanks sir. Always good to experiment.

Brisket looks like it turned out fantastic! Nice smoke...

Thanks. It was very good. My co workers loved the leftovers
 
The brisket looks fantastic Adam!

It's hard to get a small flat that juicy, but you sure nailed it!

Point!

Thanks Al.  I marinated it over night and wrapped in foil at 170 IT, I think that really helped.
 
That looks good from here.

Thanks Richie.
 
I haven't done a brisket like that in a long time. Each time I happen upon one, by wife changes my mind for me to make pastrami with it. My faith is renewed!

Point worthy!
 
That looks great. I need to find a nice one...JJ

Thanks sir.   I have the other half in pops brine, trying to make beef bacon.

Thanks JJ.      This is what my butcher cut for me when I told him I wanted a full brisket.    No point on it.
 
What did he do with the points? Would be a shame to grind them. Does he dry age and cut to your spec or just offer one set package?...JJ
 
No idea what he did with the points.   He ages for 2 weeks then cuts.    He custom cuts to what you want.
