i didnt think id be doing this anytime soon... but my girlfriend surprised me with a 009 for christmas. completely over the top, i was elated. i just happened to have a brisket flat rubbed down and ready for this new baby. i seasoned up the 009 in the morning and threw the flat in around noon. i didnt have a polder though and since it was christmas there were no stores open to get one. so, i went without and failed my first brisket. then i read in the forum that the flat is unforgiving and what not. so, undaunted, i did 3 racks of baby backs to perfection last night! i love this smoker and my girlfriend scored MAJOR points. sorry for the long post, im excited though.

First, congrats on the new smoker!

Second, I HAVE to ask... If it was a surprise, how did you happen to have a brisket rubbed and ready to go? Big Grin
so you guys think i peeked huh? i did not, ive been wanting to do a brisket for a long time and thought her and i hanging out on christmas all day was as good a day as any. then i got the smokette and it was all over. AND, i bought the baby backs on sunday, the day after at costco Smiler . she's the best, we both enjoy our cooking together and she has even talked about loading this baby up herself. thanks for the welcome, ill post again after a try another brisket. thanks guys/gals!

Man, I don't know... not every woman buys her man a Cookshack! lol...

If she gets you a nice Lund boat with a 4 stroke outboard for your birthday, I wouldn't delay the inevitable anymore!!!

Regardless, welcome to the club!
