Made this a week ago.
I gave her very little attention but it turned out pretty strong. Prime from HEB.

Did you put that brisket in a dryer?

Aaron Franklin advises trimming quite a bit
i wouldnt argue with him, but he knows how to trim meat. assume most people dont. in that case, better to trim after you cook.

Leave the fat when cooking, trim it after cooking. Removing the fat before cooking and not removing it after are equal bad calls.
This is bad advice.

But in moderation.
Wild turkey is delicious and lean but that blob you buy in a grocery is terrible for you. Same with brisket, as cooking with lots of fat makes it taste better but eating ALL that fat after cooking is not good.

I can buy that. Problem is sugar is not always where you think it is. I think the USA was 3% diabetic in the 1940's and more like 70% now. Fake sweeteners (like the "sugars" in processed foods) and added sugar are big culprits. The other hidden sugars carbs and starches are dangerous too. I love real Southern whipped potatoes but they are terrible for your health.

Is this site really so far gone that an offseason meat smoking thread is frowned upon?
Having lived my entire life east of the Mississippi, I admit I was late to enjoying and appreciating brisket( not until the last decade).
For opposing fans, if you make it to Auburn for a road trip, the brisket at Bow & Arrow is really very good. (Same chef as Acre.)
Was in Houston this Spring for a conference, and went to Truth BBQ on a recommendation. The brisket was out of this world. Assuming that's a pretty good marker/standard, the brisket at Bow & Arrow is right up there with it.

Okay, I know it's not really me. But this came out really nice. I need to trim more fat off next time.
Looks like you went to Dickeys

Truth is good. If the Auburn place is competitive with it, then it's legit.
The truth is that there is a lot of information out there now, so regional food advantages in regards to specific food processes are disappearing.

Here’s a couple flats I did over July 4. I did them on a new vertical smoker that was difficult to get dialed in at first. They were a little dry.
