[bwsdj]

I am hoping to smoke a Brisket either tomorrow or Wednesday. I am gonna use Sucklebusters Comp rub and was wondering what people are injecting there briskets with? Any Ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated

For catering or just eating I dont inject anything....if you do beef broth with a little garlic and onion powder mixed in is great...

I only inject for comp...

Thanks 3 Star, Yeah its just one for the family to enjoy(hopefully LOL) With the beef broth, do u do that right before putting on the cooker, over night , a few hours before?

Thanks

2-3 hrs before you put on pit will work great...

If you use injection on a whole packer should you inject the point too... or only the flat?

I've used butchers injection with pretty good results, but I may try the simple injection jeff mentioned just to compare....would be cheaper.

+1 on Butchers but I use 1/2 of the product they recommend, too stong imo.

If you have a spice/coffee grinder, run some of your rub through it (think powder) and mix in with the beef broth.
That gets your rub flavors down further into the meat.

You're welcome. Glad to help.
Adds moisture too.
Do the point and both sides of the flat. Space about every 1 or 2 inches and you will not regret it. I try to let them rest wrapped in plastic wrap for at least 4 hours. Be careful if you have a bunch of salt in your rub.
Enjoy.
