Runnin' with the Big Dawgs

[NewHeart]

I cooked my first brisket!

My daughter told me that I might as well put a butt on as well, seeing as how I had that lonely extra grate. So I figured wotthehell.

Put 'em on at midnight


Being the gullible, errr, trusting guy I am, I fell for the WSM hype and went to bed. Got up at 6:30 and the cooker was still humming along at 200º.

Took forever to get the meat up to the proper internal temp, and after 13 hours, I said "close enough". Wrapped both and put them in the oven to rest for a couple hours.

Pork pulled just fine




Brisket looked good, too


Sorry, no plated pictures. I'd waited long enough. It sure was worth waiting for, though.

You're in the pack and pulling ahead. Great stuff!! I still have to get my first cook with a brisket and or butt. Hope it will come out as nice.
