16 Pounds Of Brisket In The Imperial Kamado!

[Shagdog]

Awesome looking brisket, Ray. Can't wait to see it sliced. :hungry:

I thought I smelled something good while I was driving through Torrance last night!

Where'd you get the brisket?

Greg, I picked it up at RD.


Just finished up slicing and portioning out the brisket. I got 8 pounds of meat from the 16 pound brisket. 2 pounds of that will go into a chili I will be making next weekend. The rest was set aside for my wife.

I have to tell you I did go to bed last night a bit concerned how this would turn out.
It sat wrapped up in the cooler for 8 hours and was still hot when I pulled it out to cut it up this morning. Very juicy, very tender. There were a couple of spots on the fat cap that were to hard to eat. Other then that the whole thing fell apart. Not sure if thats a good thing, but it was full of juice so I was real happy.

Heres a couple of picks. Lighting is always an issue when it comes to the coloring of what it really looks like but as you can see the smoke ring is very deep into the meat.

Just cut into it and this is what I pulled out.

This is the point. Where I cut it off the top of the brisket. Does that make sense ?

Thanks for hanging out with me and following another Imperial Kamado Brisket Cook! :becky:

Look at that thick a$$ smoke ring.

And the bark looks nice and tender not all crispy crunchy.

Low and slow in action, take that hot & fast.

Nicely cooked sir! Looks amazing

A True thing of Beauty! Great Beef Critter Smoke!

Left overs would not survive at our house. No impulse control when it looks that good. I would have to buy 2.

Was the finger a BBQ accident?

Was the finger a BBQ accident?

If you asked any of the LA Brethren they would say yes. :wink:

I think the finger ended up on a biscuit with habanero jelly on it. :shocked:

Great pix Ray! That looks absolutely perfect.
