It's a baby brisket at 6.9 pounds, but I'm going to follow much of the opening post. Thanks, JL!
That is a tiny brisket. In my opinion, bigger briskets are easier to do. Especially if your small brisket is just the flat (no point)."There is no creature more arrogant than a self-righteous libertarian on the web, am I right? Those folks are just intolerable."

I'm a rookie, and shouldn't have done this on Sunday with the 1-4 schedule.Last edited by Jeff Lebowski; 02-25-2018, 05:58 PM."There is no creature more arrogant than a self-righteous libertarian on the web, am I right?

Hopefully Bo’s silence is due to him stuffing his face with delicious brisket

I learned quite a bit on this first attempt. The tray, broth and foil kept it moist. However, it was a mistake to cook it on Sunday with a three hour block at the end of the day. I pulled it as early as I could so that I would not be late, but it needed to cook a little more for optimal tenderness. I chose not to cool it down, hoping that would help it some, but as you can probably see in the picture with the sliced brisket, it was still a tougher than it should have been.
The flavors were great. I might try some chili powder in my next rub. I wanted to start with something small so if I ruined it I wouldn't feel so bad. And I need to buy a wifi or other remote meat temperature probe.
I was planning on sandwiches tomorrow. Any way tenderize the leftovers for a better sandwich? Crock-pot?

Crock pot. Gtfo.
Just slice it as thin as you can. And add some of the juices from the pan if you kept any."There is no creature more arrogant than a self-righteous libertarian on the web, am I right? Those folks are just intolerable."

It had been a while since I smoked one of these. Turned out fantastic with rave reviews from the native Texans we had over.
I also found out that HEB carries oak pellets and at half the cost of traeger brand."Discipleship is not a spectator sport.
