Why did you do this ?

Every few months I cook a couple to have some in the freezer for quick meals.

I was always terrified of trying brisket cause of the horror stories I've heard. Once I got a competition grade smoker I researched for many months prior to finally pulling the trigger and giving it a go. From the first one it was a success and family and friends have raved over it. Recently had a request from a close friend to cook some for her daughters wedding so I picked up an extra two for this cook.

I won't claim to be pushing out competition grade meat, but it's better than what we can buy around BR/NOLA area. Granted I haven't had all of them. Prior to cooking my first one I made a trip to Austin and was able to try out a good bit of their smoked brisket(not Franklin). From that trip, I would say it satisfies the same tastes as the brisket I've had in Texas.
