Just need a little patience and a little time. A Bluetooth/wifi…….

Start with good quality to improve your chances. Costco has prime briskets

It's definitely a time commitment if you don't have a set it and forget it

One of the four was slightly less than perfect...

It can be a struggle when you working on a butt the first time. **

Too much chef lubrication?**

Always...**
great2bahokie 04/04/24 01:39 PM ET
Start with a small one and it's not too bad. I've done two in the last

Hellz yeah

well ive had good luck on hot and fast too, but i prefer low and slow**
BRVT 04/04/24 11:32 AM ET
Low and slow is always better. But it's not like hot and fast ruins it

Many years ago I read an article on a "Fast Track Pork Butt"...in short....
JoesterVT 04/04/24 12:17 PM ET
Go for it...If you can do a butt, you can do a brisket.

Worth the hassle of driving to the BBQ restaurant? Sure.**

Yes. What BR said below. Pick stall strategy; wait it out or Texas crutch**
pburg_hokie 04/04/24 11:15 AM ET
if you are going to crutch it, have some pink butcher paper on hand**
BRVT 04/04/24 11:27 AM ET
go for it, patience and time are the biggest factors**
