    14lb prime brisket from HEB $2.99/lb
    Trimmed the excess fat and dried with a paper towel.
    Rub was just kosher salt, pepper, granulated garlic and granulated onion.
    225 until it hit 175 and (about 8 hours) then bumped it to 250 until it hit 203(another 3-4 hours).
    I didn’t bother wrapping this one during or after the cook and it turned out great.. My previous attempts included wrapping at the stall and putting it in a cooler after the cook for a few hours and none of those turned out this good.
    If you are considering getting a rectec then just do it! Best purchase I have made in years!
    Fat up or fat down. The brisket recipes for pellet grills were mixed on this.

          Fat side down for me.

            I love mine. I did some thick cut pork chops with the reverse sear method the other day. They turned out great. Best pork chops I ever had.

                Which model do you recommend? Probably will ever cook 2 or less briskets at a time.

                  Always fat down for me if you want a good bark. Those grates and gravity kill a good bark with the pretty side down. Bark is where most of your flavor is so a good bark is key. Also considering the fat “draining down through the meat” is a myth, fat should be used as insulation/protection from the fire first. Trimmed to 1/4” and laid towards the fire and in these pellet smokers’ case, the heat seems like it comes from underneath as over the top. Naturally for me, fat down would be my choice .

                  A great stick burner brisket will change your life. A pellet smoker will save me some time in that life to do other things and be close [emoji12][emoji23]

                    Thanks for the recipe. This makes it seem not so time consuming. I haven't ever tried a brisket but definitely want to on the ol' Camp Chef Woodwind smoker.

                      Going to put one on the electric in the near future. It won't have quite that bark or any smoke ring. But I've never been able to taste smoke ring.

                        Get an Amazen smoke tube or two, load it pellets or smoke shavings and get it smoldering good. They do help out.

                            I have a 590 and it’s just right for my family. You can put two briskets on, maybe three.

                              I'm all about easy as I get older. Currently so many places have top quality brisket its easiest to just go buy a lb or two. Also can't eat brisket for a week due to cholesterol so when I cook its mostly chicken, turkey and pork loins. I may get one some day.

                                He already went back to Matthew's and bought a Toyota.

                                It's either a hovaround or a pellet smoker next
