Title: Got a brisket on
Post by: MaxBobcat on September 01, 2014, 08:45:28 AM
Trying some new techniques....new rub.  injecting too, i normally do not inject my briskets.

did a reduction on two cans of beef broth to get a super beefy injection.

used a new rub that harry soo taught me at his class last weekend...  ;D

This is a practice for a comp I have coming up and also trying a new technique where you place something (a block of wood in my case) underneath the flat to help form a smoother shape on the flat.  no pooling in flat = perfect bark

no prob.  i would recommend the class to you and anybody else too.  me and the GF made a fun LA weekend trip out of it.

harry teaches a LOT.  and at the end you basically have a feast.  pulled pork, ribs, brisket, chicken, ahi tuna, korean beef ribs, tri-tip, stuffed fatties, and bacon pineapple donuts were the meats plus a lot of sides.  it was crazy good.

Turned out pretty dang good.

There were a couple places on the flat where the brisket injection just made the flavor really pop.  You could definitely taste the saltiness of the broth reduction.  It worked great.  This was definitely more along the lines of one-bite-bbq, than what I would consider a regular eatin'-brisket.  Which is perfect, and exactly what I was going for, since this was a test run for an IBCA comp coming up.

Looks like a Serenity brisket to me.

Looks good. I can honestly say I have never heard of the floating brisket trick but will definitely give it a try!

For the IBCA comp, practice your slices. See if you can get them done on one knife pull rather than a saw motion.

Looks fantastic!  I've always been a fan of Harry Soo's methods. Would love to attend his class myself someday.
