Title: Cold out Brisket picture loaded and done
Post by: Shoestringshop on February 06, 2021, 06:54:43 PM
So I'm doing brisket tonight and it a bit cold out it's 8 degrees out right now but without wind it's not to bad, it's going down to the negatives . A fellow grillfella lent me his bbqitall attachment so I could take a section off and hookup to mine to make a 26" ring.

So I used a rub another buddy got for me, trimmed and seasoned it then put on the 26" Glen Blue.

So it 13.5 lbs I'm planning on taking it to 180 or so then off and wrapped in tinfoil and into the cooler for a few hours.

Any suggestions are welcome. It going to take a bit. Any and all suggestions are welcome.

First off I'll say that's freaking cold!!! I can't even see GB wheels lol

Do not pull and place in cooler at 180F.

I'd foil (crutch) at 155-165F or when you get a good bark/color.

When IT is at 200F I'd start checking for probe tender. Probe should glide into brisket with ease. Like a tooth pick into peanut butter.

After probe tender, remove from grill. Open foil and let cool for 5-10 minutes. Close foil and place in cooler with bath towels for minimum of two hours.

Good luck and I'd love to see pics of your finished brisket.


Cheers

I agree with AZ2FL. Wrap around 150-160. I'd start probing around 195. It ready to come off, when probe just slides right in and out, like butter. I personally just put it right in the cooler, still wrapped. I've let it rest up to 6 hours in the cooler, and it was still hot when took out to cut it.

Looking good!  I'm getting ready to start my brisket soon.  Thankfully, the wind has died down.

Looking good @Shoestringshop

I was up at 5:00am this morning to fire up the 18" WSM and was 66F outside. We had 4-1/2" of rain yesterday in North central Florida. 

I'm looking forward to seeing your GB brisket.



Cheers

Looking great Dan!
What's that set up you have in there for the charcoal ring? Has that kept you going all night?

@wnc it's called the bbqitall https://bbqitall.com/products/26-bbqitall I've used it a lot under normal grilling conditions and it only needed one ring filled... on this SOB of a day cold day it took two. I now have a frozen pizza on the grill so I don't wake anyone up in the house. I need something to eat.

Brisket will be coming off the grill in about 1hr or so. It needs a little more time

@WNC hell yes a well deserved snack. Still need to do the ABT's and I'll be done. I'll hold off on them until pregame show. A sneak peek of the brisket.

Looks good to me, I'd differently slide up to your table to eat the brisket.
Props to you for cooking in the cold.

Cheers

I smoked a Boston butt, three sausage logs stuffed with cheese, 40 jalapeno poppers, two bushels of fresh oysters and a five foot gator on my wrk.

I'm cold just looking at your weather temps!

It was a bit cold out but the grill must go on. That a hell of a lineup for your grill. I had raw oysters I made oyster shooters, ABT's and a hangover... the hangover was the ruff one to deal with. Lol

Yea buddy that cold was a real SOB I would have loved 52 degree weather outside. As for the brisket no one left hungry. We had peach shine, cherry shine, beer, deviled eggs, rye bread with sausage toppings, cucumber snack, brisket, Abt's, Cocktail weenies wrapped in crescent rolls, cookies, and a heated garage with two flat screens.

A good time was had by all! This year the wife and I still have plans to make it Doraville to see you and the wife. The kid is turning 21 in a few days I think he want to come also as he's been doing some grilling by his girlfriends house for her parents and he's a cook now at a restaurant. We will teach him a thing or two.

All these cold/snowy cooks. Must be challenging to regulate temps. I'm in Southern California where if it rains and the temperature drops below 60 degrees, it makes the evening news! Brisket looks good. You only had to refuel twice with that bbqitall ring??

Yes only one time it works really well. I recommended it to some people and nobody's been disappointed.
