Some of my brand new students [two weeks in to their lessons] insisted upon smoking their own briskets. Heh! They can't even fry an egg at this point. Anyway, as usual, I relented. While they smoked a 3 pound brisket - I smoked a 20 pounder for the holiday.

Needless to say - THEY NAILED IT! Great work kiddos! Your brisket was not only juicy, but smoky and delicious as well! I tell ya. There's no such thing as a stupid kid .... 😆

For best success, ask your butcher for the most limp brisket [meaning less connective tissue] the best marbling and fat on top he has. You'll also want a brisket slab that's equal sized on all parts for balanced smoking.

ALBUQUERQUE, NEW MEXICO
I'm a Certified Sushi Chef, Certified Culinary Youth Instructor [6 thru 21 year olds] Licensed CYFD Foster Parent, Certified Mixologist, avid Scuba and Spear Diver, fisherman, camper, big game hunter and crazy avid gardener. Hense my love for the year round super fresh meats, seafoods and crispy fresh vegetables my students have consistently listed for your families picky approval!With that, cooking, teaching and feeding others are obviously 3 of my absolute passions in life. My culinary specialties as an easy going Chef include Asian, Mexican, Cajun, BBQing, Grilling, Irish Pub food, Low Country foods, anything seafood related, extra spicy foods, fresh meat, extra fresh vegetables, US comfort, kid friendly and super fast, quick and easy foods. But, I'll literally put anything in my mouth at least once. Pfft! My daddy didn't nickname me, "Goat," at two years of age for nothin'! Yup! I'll literally put anything in my mouth at least once!P.S. Most ALL of my recipes posted on this site were soley submitted by my youngest 6, 7 and 8 year old culinary students. Mostly recipes for the homeless and battered women's shelters they regularly cook for. That means ANYONE can make these super easy, crazy delicious recipes!Lastly, my only culinary motto? Be sure to marry a Cook or a Chef. After all, looks fade. Hunger sure as hell doesn't." Anyway, hit me up with any questions. I'm happy to help all y'all out if I possibly can!
