Brisket flat 6 hours in #meatstr https://video.nostr.build/a66802be60491bec937ff2c173032a2424a8097dd824e761506bbadc30e27b18.mp4
I want one :(
The brisket or the Traegar?
Traegar
Hubby would say do it. He was a Big Green Egg guy for over 20 years and says the Traegar is far superior. He’d also tell you not to get the top of the line one. He originally bought the extra large Timberline with the burner and it had non stop issues so he returned it and got the 885. No problems so far and he uses it a couple of times a week.
Traegers are magical. Did a 16hr brisket at 180F. Didn’t have to wake up in the middle of the night to check it. Perfection.
Getting up at 3am to add coal and wood is half the fun of BBQ
I like my BBQ with no fun. just delicious meat.
Looks so good!

Hubs says salt & pepper only a la Aaron Franklin
Next time, you make the rub. Brown sugar, cayenne, garlic power, lil mustard powder, paprika. All the good things.
Do the Texas cheat, you'll never go back
Always and butcher paper > foil
Aluminum foil is poison
Aluminum ain't great for you, but I don't drink sodas or beer from cans so I figure it's okay to use Aluminum cookware occasionally...
Wait, between the meat and the foil, around the foil, or instead of the foil? I've always just done straight up heavy duty Reynolds foil, what am I missing?
Traeger pellets contain seed oils 👀 Gotta stay vigilant if you are trying to avoid fiat foods https://image.nostr.build/d43524858197a980eff6f4fd7cf3fdaefeab9f9e2ca323713969474638026661.jpg
