Nzoner's Game Room>What are you Smoking/Grilling/BBQ'ing this weekend?
BigRedChief 03:48 PM 07-03-2015
What are you up to this weekend?

I finally gave up on my smoker and decided to get a new smoker. I went with a bigger model but less tech. Yes, its a cheater electric smoker. My 3rd one. I need more space to cook, I don't need help getting my smoke and temp right. :-)

I've also never used injection for flavor except for pork butt or other big cuts of meat. I decided to give it a try. I developed my own injection. Basically like the other recipes you have out on the internet but I'm putting the rub in the injection and using sirracchi.

Full results not in yet but my son and I think its the best sausage we have ever had.

No sauce. Marinated the meat overnight. Injected the meat. Slow cooked the ribs and chicken. Baste it with a combo of butter and apple juice. Using a combination of Apple, Mesquite, Cherry and Hickory wood.

For brisket I tend to stick with Santa Maria style. Salt, pepper, maybe a little granulated garlic (bloom in a liquid for additional flavor).

Pass on store bought rubs; salt is cheap so there's a lot of it in those rubs and they're always bad. Mix granulated garlic, kosher salt, dark brown sugar, mustard powder, cayenne pepper, paprika, cumin and black pepper (maybe some chili powder) in various ratios until you find something you like. Paprika is largely for color, brown sugar and granulated garlic for filler, salt and pepper to taste, cayenne to heat, I do my cumin by smell.

Just make your own.

Make your own rub. Tons cheaper.

Last few I've done were a straight Dalmatian rub - equal parts salt and pepper. That's really outstanding.

I always foil mine after like 4 hours and run it up to 190-200 and pull it. I haven't had good luck with bringing it to 180 and slice it.

I've also had better luck going to a butcher than a grocery store. I have no idea what the difference is or how to get it otherwise so I just bend over and pay up. It's worth the money.
I was pretty much jerky, I didn't use any foil at all and never let it rest. Also, I have a digit instant read thermometer and I always thought to myself afterwards "did I have it set on Celsius"?

180 C would be like 350 F. If you were cooking below 350, that's not possible.

I usually foil mine after about half my smoke time, and when I pull it, wrap it in towels and put it in a cooler for at least an hour.

If you cut right into it, any moisture left in the meat bled out, which is why it was dry.

Did it have a fat cap or was it trimmed?

I believe it was trimmed, I got it from Costco.

That's assuredly part of the problem then. All the flats at my Costco are trimmed and very lean. You need that fat cap to melt into the brisket to keep it moist.

You can approximate it by putting a layer of bacon on top.

Or buy untried brisket and trim yourself.

I'd say that's it. Brisket needs fat.

I'm not, just a dry rub. I have one on my WSM right now.

I never have either but was just reading about it. I use a water smoker and it keeps it moist enough but I was curious what it would do for flavor.

Looking forward to Tuesday!

My first brisket flat failed miserably, I'm trying it again. Once I get it down I'll start experimenting.
