I’ve just wanted a smoker for a long time. Was gonna make a small one from an old air compressor tank a while back but never got around to it. I’m so rusty with the welder, it would probably fall apart after I was done!You can make pretty good BBQ pork sandwiches doing it in the oven using bbq rub and some smokey sauce.
When the meat is done and cooled get rid of any fat and the onions and stuff. Shred (pull) the meat and ad in extra rub, some of the separated broth (skim the fat off) and your favorite smokey sauce.
It's not quite the real deal but will get devoured anyway. Some days you can't run the smoker.
For some reason it's better than trying that with beef.
How long in the oven about till you reached that 200 IT?Well back to the brisket.
On an oak fueled offset smoker running 230-250 degrees. Put on at 1PM , it stalled at 152 IT about 10PM wrapped it in pink butcher's paper and left it on till the heat was used up in the smoker at 1130pm .
In the house it came and into a 230 degree oven to finish.
My first time with the butcher's paper. It worked as advertised allowing a better bark.
One thing is the steam leaves the paper instead of all being trapped. This will increase your cooking time over foil if the same temp is used, I may bump the next one up to 235-240..
Ran brisket to 200 IT and let it rest.
Came out perfect, plenty of smoke tender juicy and a slightly better bark than using foil to crutch with.

A couple of things.Second brisket ever... not bad. Marinated in salt pepper and garlic dry rub overnight, smoked over hickory and a bit of maple at 230. Wrapped in foil at 165. Pulled at 202. Falling apart, good smoke flavor without being overpowered.

Lol... its actually my 3rd brisket. I don't count the first one 16 years ago that was like 3 lbs and turned into leather on a brand new cheapo offset that i just got to learn the craft.A couple of things.
I thought I recognized that rig a Smokey Joe's , I have two in the back yard with burnt out fire boxes wating to be rebuilt.
My current smoker is a thin POS.
Looking at your brisket I figure you have learned well and didn't use much of the q sauce.
I had no mentors or internet when I started. I actually caught a brisket onfire and damn near the house with it . Lol
Sausage gravy, biscuits and chicken fried steak??
I was a fan of the carrol shelby chili kit when I could get my kiddos to eat it. I messed it up by making deer chili one night and they ate it all up. My youngest is as sharp as a tack and said, wait a minute, we didn’t have any hambooger meat in the fridge. Oops, they questioned the food for months!!!! Funny thing is they will eat deer jerky faster than I can take it out of the dehydrator.Wife ran off with her group to shoot skeet said there is a lb of burger in fridge fend for yourself.
Fine. Disclaimer: Not a bowl of red.
Ground beef, 1/2 an onion and a large clove of garlic then this.

Getting ready to harvest our garlic, we need to try to make some of this!!This is a recipe for Salsa Negra, its by Hank Shaw, the wild game chef and author. I've actually been meaning to buy some black garlic specifically for the recipe. I'm not sure if you like hot sauce, but this came to mind quickly. You could also use it in pastas, dressings, asian dishes. Experiment with it. Most of all, enjoy..

You're from Hickory, do you know Bob Hazel?

Nagged my wife for two weeks to make her crockpot chili, she finally made it because of this. ^^^
In a 6 quart crockpot:
6 cans of beans (dealers choice), Hatch jalapenos. (then 4 more cans of beans after pulling two bowls to test the heat) for a total of 10.
1 - 2 Lb. Ground beef or chicken or ???
Red beans, black beans, black eyed peas, garbanzo, white beans, brown mushrooms (for the fungus), onion (red or white), stewed tomatoes (fresh if you got 'em), tomato paste, tomato soup
[I'll post a pic of her recipe here shortly if she doesn't kill me....with chilli]
1 lb browned ground beef (or chicken, steak, venison, etc)
2 medium onions chopped
1 bell pepper chopped
about 6 jalapenos chopped (add as many as you like)
6 large mushrooms sliced
12 cloves of garlic smashed and chopped
1 T ground cumin
1 T salt
1 T ground black pepper
3 T sugar
1 T Chili powder
1/2 T smokey paprika
1 - 15oz can of diced tomatoes (or diced tomatoes & green chilies mix Rotell)
1 - 10oz can tomato soup
1 - 6oz can tomato paste
6 cans of beans (use whatever beans you like - I use 4 cans of dark kidney beans, 1 can chick peas, 1 can of whatever I have on the shelf - such as black beans, blackeye peas, pinto, white bean, navy, etc)
Your crock pot should be full by now. let it cook 4-6 hours.
Eat some. then add 4 more cans of beans. sprinkle a little extra chili powder and cumin. add extra jalapenos to taste (or whatever peppers you like)
Now your crock pot should be full again.
eat more you swine![]()
add cheese and crackers or a side of buttered bread or tortillas
