Since I bought my FEC about 7 months ago, I've spent a great deal of time trying to perfect my rubs and sauces. I've ordered different spices and rubs from other people, and I have really "chased" that thing called, BBQ. Last night I was very tired, and just didn't feel like going through my usual preparation ritual, (running everyone out of the kitchen and making everyone promise not to spy on my secret rub), so I just used sea salt and some fresh cracked pepper. This morning, when I took it out of the smoker I was amazed at how it looked and tasted. It is great. I chopped it and added a little finishing sauce and it blew me away. I had a small brisket flat under the two butts, and it looks great too, though I haven't tasted it yet. Has anyone else tried this? What do you think?
