I've smoked brisket on an open campfire several times. Tin foil was used as a "smoke tent."
Fat side down works better in that circumstance. So ****ing good.

The fat cap in that case serves as insulation.

I never had the inclination to subject $125-$150 piece of meat to that type of punishment. Is this method a acquired skill or one out of necessity?

I bet the fat dripping into a camp fire for hours mean't you ate with a sidearm ready?

Skill my friend. Unfortunately you have to constantly attend to it.
Worth the effort though. The burnt ends are from God.

I don't see how this is even a question, unless you're some heathen from Carolina or something. Up, of course.

I do pay out the ass a little but all the beef from my local is aged, trimmed, and from local farmers.

My father in law raised cattle in SE MO, grass fed with his own heirloom corn finish and what I get here is as good as what he raised. They were aged and butchered in Republic IIRC. He raised Duroc pigs too. If he would have done the Wagyu, I'd probably still be married to his daughter.

I edited above post, if that price is correct, thats a deal. You cooking website has a great article about why high grade Choice can be better than prime. it was TLDR but it had to do with all the factors that make premium choice better meat vs the marbling that makes it low grade prime.

I gave up my Costco membership because I don’t have the storage space to buy bulk. So I pay a bit more for beef. Still $7/lb for brisket isn’t unusual here. Even when I was in KC a few years ago I thought brisket was too expensive. It’s a poverty cut, the definition of overrated at these prices, though certainly delicious when the few do them right.

Duroc is the best tasting hog on hoof!! Gramps did Landrace, Hamp, and Duroc and there was no comparison. Since gramps died and the farm is basically no more, when we butcher we have to go with a local farmer. He has a goofey Landrace crossbreed. Its better than store bought, but it ain't no dirt lot Duroc

At that price you think they would have donated it to a soup kitchen...Another reason I only go there if I have too.

That was a steal and was that Tyson Choice or Select.
