    Looks great! Only suggested improvement would be to try wrapping in butcher paper vs aluminum foil. Seems to help with the bark, at least in my experience.

    Correct, I usually do and thought I had a partial roll of red paper but didn't.
    Paper lets the meat bake more as it can breathe vs aluminum foil being too tight and the meat steams.

    Where do you get the butcher paper? I'm sure Amazon can come through. Just wasn't sure if this was something you can find locally.

    Most Costco and Sam's carry it (look around the freezer stuff) but its a pretty big roll. You may be better off going to your local
    butcher shop and asking him to sell you a few feet. They usually will when you tell them what you are doing with it

    They would probably appreciate you buying the brisket from them as well.

    So you mean I shouldn't go in, ask for some free paper and then go use their bathroom?

    Anywhere in the midlands that has good brisket? I've only eaten a couple times and haven't been impressed exactly. I would like to try to cook one but want to know what a good one is supposed to be like before I do.

    Good God I'm craving some brisket now. So far I've yet to find any good BBQ place here in VA and it sure is creating a hankering for some quality 'cue. Looks good, post pics of the next one!

    At least you’ll eat good toting that L.
    Yeah, but do you consider a dog to be a filthy animal? I wouldn't go so far as to call a dog filthy but they're definitely dirty. But, a dog's got personality. Personality goes a long way.

    FWIW brisket isn't cooked to a set temperature. You cook it until a toothpick or probe slides into like butter. It might be 200 degrees, it might be 210. I start checking at 200 and go from there. When it's done right it's delicious and when it's done wrong it tastes like shoe leather.

    Surprisingly Westfall when it was open across from me had some pretty good brisket at the start. It doesn't travel all that well though. Rodney is cooking some around town with his rig, Farmers Market on Saturday, he cooks where Triangle was on Thursday and Friday. His ain't bad.
