Met my sisters for lunch at a pretty new Farm to Table type restaurant here. The Chef/Owner competes in BBQ competitions and even though its not really a BBQ place, brisket was on the menu and on my brain thanks to this thread so I gave it a try.
Came out and looked really fatty so I was worried. Shouldn't have been. It was so tender and juicy it just disolved in my mouth. Made me remember that properly smoked brisket can be better than steak. Got a feeling the brisket in the pics here is on par with my lunch today.
His was coffee rubbed and seasoned perfectly.
