This is my favorite way to do a brisket in the drum.

No trimming... seasoned with salt and pepper.

into the drum fat side down...... with a bit of hickory this time..
In the drum I prefer fat side down, in my other smokers I prefer fat side up.

flipped the brisket over to show the crispy fat side...

I'm sure this stuff isn't healthy but I love the crisp fat on bottom and the juicy meat inside.

Nothing fancy, just brisket but I'm happy to have leftovers for future meals.

Thanks for looking!
 
Brisket looks perfect! Breakfast don't look to shabby either.
 
As usual, I don't even know where to begin. Let me just say perfection personified as always sister. Awesome job :thumb:
 
That looks fantastic! I especially liked the Spam bend test..lol I grew up eating spam, fried in a pan with brown sugar and butter.

BTW, who did your grate? I want one. Just with something different etched into it:tongue:
 
Wow, just wow! Can you box up a plate and mail it to me? It's July in Oklahoma, it'll still be warm when I get it! :becky:
 
Good looking briskie! Spam?? Homemade .....except when
maybe the apocalypse happens then all bets are off. :p
 
Thank you MisterChrister! Fried tatoes and brisket are some of my favorites. :grin:

Thanks! The grate was made by Meyer Metal Works in Kansas. I'm not sure if he is still making them. Haven't heard from him in a long time.

Thank you Willy!

Thank you Fwismoker!
 
Holy cow Jeanie! You even give brisket a pizzazz. :thumb:
 
I did a brisket yesterday, just like you, no trim, salt and pepper, through it in the smoker and didn't look at it till ready chek said 200.

Spam was a delicacy for us a long time ago, said I'd never eat it again, but the one you made has changed my mind. Smoked spam, never thought of it, I'm gonna try
it.

Your CI plate and fixins looks great!
 
The whiskey makes it edible. lol

How much whiskey do you have to drink to make the spam edible? :wink:
My dad use to make fried spam sammies for us when we were kids and that was a treat! The brisket and breakfast look wonderful!
