Hi All!

I had a party on the 3rd of July for about 25 guests. I'd decided to try my
hand a brisket. I was also smoking butt and ribs.

I've always been intimidated by brinket. Something about that short window
where you go from tough as my Mother-in-Law to dry and arid.

I read a bunch of articles as well as what you guys had to say and decided
to take it to the next level.

I put the brinkets on around 10:30 the night before and (using the Minion
methiod) never had to add charcoal again.

BTW, I have 2 WSMs.

Anyway, I flipped the briskets at the half way marks and kept the temp
around 230. They were ready in 14 hrs... A perfect 170 degrees.

They had a great smoke ring, bark and were a tender as a mother's love.
Everyone loved them.

I had enough left over to make a few sandwicches for myself and chop what
was left to mix in some sauce.

Thanks to to Edwin P; F.G. Whitfurrows, and Monroe for their articles. I
also found the FAQ's extremely helpful.

Just thought you guys would like to know your words are just not flowing
around in cyberspace. They're actually doing some good.

Smoke on!

P.S. Smoked Tuna Loin - I grilled it... Came out great!

hard to imagine that they were really tender at 170°--maybe ya meant
190° --but sliced thin I suppose-----------
Cooked a couple cases of briskets this weekend and everyone went to at least
188°--some as far as 200° b4 sticking in cooler for later service

Thank you. Glad it worked out.
