Man! Brisket prices have gone up in the last couple of months!!!
Dry Rub: 12 hours prior to cooking (9:30 am – 9:30 pm)
Fat from the brisket trimmings were put in a crock pot for about 8-10 hours. Beef Tallow was strained and put in the fridge overnight.
• Brisket:
o Cooked Brisket Unwrapped x 9 hours
o Wrapped in foil with ~3/4 cup beef tallow until internal temperature of 203
o Total Cook Time = 13 Hours 40 minutes
o Rested wrapped in cooler x 3.5 hours
• Pork Butt:
o Smoked Pork Shoulder 10 Hours and put in instant pot with apple juice and left over broth from beef tallow x 1.5 hrs.
Mix of wood chunks - Pecan, White Oak, Cherry, Hickory
• Amount of Wood – 368 grams – 12.98 oz.
• Smokin-It SS Chip Screen
• Wood Combustion 80% -
Very Good Outcome and smoke flavor. Surprisingly not over smoked.
I was a little worried since i've never used that much wood before.
Still loving my Smokin-It 3D!

I’d have to say that looks just about perfect!
What dry rub did you end up using? Looks like a great bark you got with it!
-
I typically mix what I have on hand (never actually measure):
This rub was approximately 1/3 Weber Dry rub, 1/3 (Montreal steak seasoning + some extra kosher salt to cut some of the heat + garlic powder + onion powder), and <1/3ish The Gospel all purpose rub.
I mix and taste and then mix some more if needed.
Very unscientific.
It's ironic because I measure, document, and time everything else with every cook.

I like the mixture. I haven’t had the Weber dry rub before, but have had the other two, and it sounds like it was great!
Thanks for sharing your concoction!

Looks like a great meal. I also use quite a bit more wood in my smoker than recommended. It always turns out good and I don’t get to much smoke.

Looks good from where I am sitting.
