Best brisket marinade
 

I need help... I've done a few briskets in my time, but I'm still looking for the best marinade.

My sis-in-law's grad party is tomorrow and I'm grillmaster... I'm smoking a brisket and a pork butt. The butt is going in a brine and I have all the rubs and/or sauces to be used (I made them up last night). What I do not have, is a great brisket marinade.

Help, please.





*** I e-mailed Phobia last night, thinking he'd be able to help. Punk-ass bitch apparently sucks at cow. Bastard.



:D

Antifreeze


Phobia sucks cows?

Easy, Maul it!!

Here's my favorite......

Allegro Brisket Marinade

I am praying that you're kidding.

That's what I heard.

Thanks for the Allegro and Claude's suggestions... but I was really thinking something more homemade rather than a factory sauce. My rubs and sauces are both homemade. Damn good, too.

Thats what men cook with JR.!! None uh dis fancy shmancy hoity toity crap!!

Marinade?

Dry >>> wet

So are you recommending I just put the rub on it and let it sit overnight? It's a sweet rub -- 1c sugar, 1/2c. salt, and various spices. I don't know that I've ever done a dry rub, but I'm certainly willing to take your advice.

I usually put the rub on and let it sit for about an hour. I don't let anything sit overnight...additional spice penetration occurs naturally during smoking as the fat melts and soaks in.

Also, your rub has far too much sugar for brisket - it will carmelize first and then char.

htismaqe -- I just looked in your profile to see if you were still online and saw your avy... that's incredible.

You think? It works perfect for ribs.

Of course, ribs don't sit in the smoker as long, huh? Dammit. I didn't think about that.
