Finishing salt
Does anyone use finishing salts on brisket or ribs for their turn in boxes?

Re: Finishing salt
I give a light dusting of some rub that is finely grinded.
How bout some more beans Mr.Taggert? I'd say you've had enough!

Re: Finishing salt
There's so much salt in every other step of the way I'd be concerned with it being too salty. Have you tried any "turn-in adjacent" pieces with the finishing salt on it? I tried some of mine from this past weekend and it seemed too salty to me. The judges seemed to like it but they get such a small piece you never know.

Re: Finishing salt
Assuming you nailed your primary flavors, tenderness etc.. a little extra salt can provide a pop of flavor that stands out.. especially on FT or bigger comps. I like to use a little popcorn salt, it's extra fine and doesn't really make the entry too salty IMO.. experiment at home first!

Re: Finishing salt
I try my brisket that I'm turning in, If it needs a POP I'll add a little salt to it.
