Picked up a brisket from Sam's a few weeks ago for this weekend. It was 14 pounds or so, probably 12 after trimming.

I recently picked up Oakridge Comp Beef and Pork that I figured I give a try.

Here she is all seasoned up.

My brisket was flexible....

Here she is on the UDS. KBB with Oak chunks running about 275.

While that was going, I forgot I still had a super fatty....that's what I call the 32 ounce chubs.

I seasoned it up with the same Oakridge treatment. When I threw that on, I also flipped the brisket.

While cooking, a coyote strolled through the yard....

I pulled the super fatty for snacks after it hit 150. Notice it drapes over the regular sized dinner plate. :shock:

The point...

The flat...These cuts looked dry. As I sliced further into the brisket, the moisture was better. I think I over rested it.

But the flat was still plenty tender.

Now it's all bagged up and ready for sammies!

I really liked the Oakridge Comp Beef and Pork. It was nice on the Brisket and the Sausage. It has some heat, but not overly spicy. It's just kind of a well balanced sweet, spicy, savory (from the chili) kind of rub.

Enjoy!
 
That is one long fattie!!!! TWSS! :wink:

Brisket looks great! I really like that rub also!

Should have cooked up ol' Wiley, also :becky:
 
Mmmmm.... Looks fantastic!
Love everything but the coyote. :mrgreen: They cause me a lot of grief. :razz:
