To celebrate my Mizzou Tigers bowl game tonight I’m cooking my first full packer brisket last night/today! Following suggestions here, I’m using Matt Pittman’s “backyard” trim method, simple salt/pepper/garlic/paprika/sugar rub, and Pittman’s overnight cooking method (cook temp 190F overnight, just kicked up to 225F until wrap). One smoke tube with hickory and oak chips burned overnight, just restarted.
FireBoard says meat is steady at 153F and bark OK not great, so waiting to wrap until temp is closer to 165F. Updates to come.
