A while back, before I knew I'd spend the last five-plus weeks in the hospital, I was asked to smoke some Q for a small gathering of theologians who are meeting here in San Antonio.
Since I can't operate a smoker due to my disability, I had to enlist my son and wife to help. We did two briskets and one pork butt.
The butt was rubbed with Simply Marvelous Season-all and S.M? Spicy Apple and a touch go S.M. Cherry, just for the heck of it.
The first brisket was rubbed with Simply Marvelous Season-all and S.M. peppered Cow. The second brisket was rubbed with OakRidge BBQ Black Ops Brisket rub.
The butt was out of the small BGE with Cherry and Oak wood. Ran around 275 degrees.
The briskets were put on the 22" WSM with a Mesquite, running 300-350 degrees.
All meats were pulled too early, as my son is still learning the "like butta" probe method. I was not able to check them. Regardless, they all got a good rest and the flavor was great all the way around. The Simply Marvelous butt and brisket were fed to the gathering of theologians. They were all very happy and full. They thought the food was fantastic, no, make that "Simply Marvelous."
The brisket pictures below that's not sliced was the OakRidge Special Ops rub. We kept that to try as a family, as I had never had it before. It, too. Was excellent.
Here is the pron, in no certain order...
Okay, I'll try to add the pics below, Every time I change screens to photbucket and back, the text here is gone...
