I was looking at it in my computer and the dollar sign looked like a 1.

Apologies for not taking pictures when they were fresh. Tonight I vacuum sealed approximately 24 lbs of meat. These are the pictures of the refrigerated product as it was being put away.

It will look like that when it's 35 degrees out of the fridge.

Yea I know. That's what happens after it rests in the fridge for a couple of days. But don't worry, it will once again be delicious upon reheat. Timing and temp were perfect. Even the lean end was moist.

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.

Like you, I vacuum seal my leftover brisket and pulled pork and reheat in the sealed bag in some warm/hot water(similar to sous vide method) and it always comes out perfect.

You just have to dive in which you have. I bought a smallish packer from Costco for my first brisket and watched a Franklin video. Came out way better than I would have imagined with my little dual fuel source masterbuilt $100 special from Home Depot. Use that same smoker and continue to put out what I believe are quality smoked meats. I am going to upgrade soon.

Looks good!
