Oh normally I wouldn't but given the quick burn on the snake, I didn't want to have to babysit the coals.

Glad you got the save, Darko! Honestly I probably would have punted that fuckin thing over the hill and got drunk... Or maybe have already been. Good job man!

I don't think I've laughed this hard at a post yet Travis!

Nice save Darko!

Looking for: Red MBH 26"(The Aristocrat), Chestnut-coppertone (The Estate), Glen-blue (The Imperial), and The Plainsman.

As I said! I seriously thought about it. This was the brisket cook from hell. Between my stupidity and perhaps the meat not being accommodating, I thought about seeing it fly through the air.

using a snake method, how long of a cook could you have at say 250 on a kettle? I know on the WSM you can (not quite set and forget) but adjust and check time to time 250 for quite a long time before needing to refuel.

Wow, that was an odessy! I'm glad the brisket turned out well in the end.

Where did you get the brisket?  I had a friend over and we were talking about briskets and we're trying to figure out where to get one for a semi-reasonable price.

Darko

I got this one at Lococo's. They or Highland usually have them in stock.

Lightning

The friend who was visiting had seen a brisket at Lococo's (the one on Barton) and mentioned that he thought it was priced a bit too much and was having brisket withdrawal since it's been a long time since he's done one.  I've never done one; the pork shoulder I did a while ago was actually intended to be a brisket but what was the result of the sticker shock I had up at Highland when I went looking for one.  The friend mentioned that we should take a look at Farmer Al's.  Maybe once I recover from the financial beating I took over the summer. Anyways, I'm glad yours turned out well despite the adventure in between the beginning and the end.

Looks Good!!! I will have to try some Brisket soon.  That Blue looks amazing with those handles and that lid holder. Where did you order that holder. I might want to get one.  Thanks.

@greenweb that's a slide-aside lid holder. Discontinued years ago. I found mine on a $30 black OTS on CL. Paid $30. Came out with that, a hinged grate and a tool holder. Gave the grill away, and still came out on top.
Still need a 22" yellow

Great deal!  How come I can not get a deal like that.  All I could do was to pick up a used Weber Fireplace for $15 today. I think I did ok.

I'll see if I can find a vendor selling new. Thanks!

You should be able to get the slide aside at any barbecue store.

$15 for a fireplace? Hell yeah! I'd take that over my slide-aside score. Sorry @darko for hijacking the thread. Doing my first brisket not the 1st. Hope it turns out half as good, and goes half as smoothly.

Good luck with your brisket.

Thank!  I'll check it out and see how much they want for it.  I could use one.
