Good thought. However I have the bit in my teeth and I am itching to try it. The recipe is from Smoking Joes BBQ. Of course he uses a pellet smoker. It intrigued me, so I ordered some Everything Bagel spice and a bag of pecan shells. Went to Costco and came away with a 16 lb. brisket. Will probably cut it in half and try the pellets in my Cookshack. Will post results.
