Platinum Contributing Member Blackstar Posted July 6, 2019 Platinum Contributing Member Share Posted July 6, 2019 (edited) I've been tasked with supplying brisket for a wedding next month. They expect 130 guests. I'm thinking about renting a large smoker and I found this guy on Facebook who has a 2400 sq inch offset smoker available that weekend and he's near me. What do you pros and semi-pros think? He will supply the wood, deliver and pick up. He will give me tips on operation. He is leaving on vacation so will drop it off well before the event so I can play with it for a couple days prior. He is more expensive than others I have found but they are all just big BBQ's.

I like the smoker though!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

f7ben Posted July 6, 2019 Share Posted July 6, 2019 For this last brisket we trimmed appropriately. Then we injected with Lamberts Sweet Swine o mine injection and we rubbed with the Lamberts sweet swine rub. These both paired really well with the whole hog and worked great on brisket also. We will be using these full time. After injecting and rubbing the brisket we vac seal it and in the fridge for 24hrs Then it was smoked at 225 for about 12 hours. Just after it starts to get through about 160f we separate the point and cut that up for ends and wrap the flat. Finish the flat to 198f or so. For the ends this time we just gave them a light coating of Mike's sweet honey bbq sauce. Let them cook in a covered pan for a few hours. Then drain the juice and recoat them in bbq sauce again. Finish in the oven at 300 until they caramelize good 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That wont be until the first week of Aug. Have you used any Memphis yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NaturallyAspirated Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 (edited) Trimmed up the brisket last night and threw it on the smoker after the ham cooked. It's been on since 8:30 last night.
