Large hunks of fatty meat must be smoked for 10 to 12 hours, after which they turn a dark reddish brown. This is scripture. Or at least it ought to be.

 

And I hate to generalize, but England is not exactly the world's leading authority on Barbeque.... in fact in all my trips there, I've yet to have a properly cooked piece of meat (sausages aside), so you are forgiven for your blasphemy.

Good work. What temp to you take it to? What do you use for fire?

 

 

I like to keep the main chamber under 275 for at least 8 hours, today we're going a little long.

 

For fire we're using Big Green Egg natural charcoal, it absolutely rocks, and about every 20 minutes we're dumping wet hickory on the fire.

 

I didn't use a rub, instead I make a basting solution - Apple cider vinegar, sea salt, Hungarian paprika, chili powder, cayan pepper, Piri Piri, Pickapeppa, and a little brown sugar.

Yeah.... it got broken in with some brats and ribeye steaks last week, but brisket is the true christening.

Nice. I have been using Royal Oak natural and like that a lot. I have heard good stuff about BGE, but haven't ever seen it locally. I generally smoke with apple wood and cherry. (My father is a fruit farmer) Might have to try your basting solution sometime. Generally I do a dry rub and then baste it with a mixture of fresh apple cider, lemon juice, Beam black, and a splash of worchestershire.

Yeah, bourbons definitely pair well with meat... It's nice to hear someone else who takes their barbeque seriously...

 

With brisket, I like a big thick fat pack on top, that makes it plenty salty, and I like to counter with spicy - a little burn on top of the smoke.... when it comes out right, I find I don't want any kind of sauce.
