....ok, lesse......maybe something will post up here.................
Here's where we left off....
Charcoal setup.........
Otta call these things 'Smoke Rings", but I think that name's already been co-opted !!
Lump chips for "burn insurance"............Startup......
Aways in, things weren't moving quite smoothly & all clean-burn-like, so I forwarded some coals to get things moving along....
Bean pan in @ 2-1/2 hours.....
Here's what the burn looked like about 1/2way around....
Beans in jail......
Thinking the brisket would come around to done maybe somewhere near the tip,
I separated the coal line at the end......Silly me....brisket takes longer, even if it's smaller, I guess
I've always wanted to do these side-by-side, so this is it......
Oak & Apple make for a nice color...
Fired up Lulu for some taters.....
Tip was well done way ahead of point.....
Pull apart.....
Tri tip....just like brisket is supposed to do...........
Please note: There is no knife in this photo, it's not needed...
After a short nap, the brisket is done......
I like the point....it's yummy !!!
for what it takes to get where I need to go, the tri=tip is an easier cook, though....
Thanks fer Lookin' !!!
Oh, and the beans did get out of jail.....
