Smoking Fanatic
i know legendary Texas BBQ pitmaster john mueller does the hot and fast method and people rave about his BBQ brisket though from what i understand he doesn't inject hes got a shack in georgetown texas
Any word on that prime packer?
Sounds great! I will try the 5 hour burn. I know its been debated many times, but how does the pan work out for you? Does it impact the bark at all or make the bottom soggy?
I tried this method Saturday with little success. I'm guessing part of the issue may have been with the size of the cut. I stopped at my local supermarket to buy a flat (raincheck for $3.49 lb). When I got their, they only had partials. The meat dept said they were out of season now. The biggest one I could find was just over two pounds. I mixed 3/4 cups of beef broth with 3 grams of phosphate and injected. Threw it in the smoker at 160 for 45 minutes and then turned temp up to 325. Covered the foil pan at about 170 and uncovered again at 190m hoping to get some bark. This thing turned out as dry as any brisket I have cooked.
