When you nail the brisket 🙌🏻 • I've been overcooking my briskets recently, leaving them dry and crumbly. Not this time. • 14 lb brisket, first applied a light coat of Allegro Brisket & Fajita Sauce for binder then a thin base sprinkle of Whiskey Bent The Grind Coffee Blend Dry Rub then an ample dusting of Whiskey Bent/Kendrick BBQ Ancho Americano Rub, topped with a coat of coarse Reload Magnum. Let that sweat for about an hour. • Set my Traeger Grills Ironwood 885 on Super Smoke at 200° using a mix of Traeger Meat Church Pellet Blend and Mesquite Wood Pellets. Inserted my Meater Plus Wireless Thermometer into the thickest part of the brisket and put it on the Traeger for an overnight smoke at 10:00 pm. Checked the smoke and IT early the next morning, raised the temp on my Ironwood 885 to 225° while maintaining Super Smoke. Wrapped the brisket in butcher paper when internal temperature reached 160° and pushed thru the stall. Hit goal of 195° at 3:00 pm, pulled the brisket, doubly rewrapped in butcher paper and then an old lint-free towel and set in my cooler to rest for a couple of hours. Started unwrap and slicing on my Rosewood Block Brisket Board as my family and friends arrived for dinner. Got some great shots and videos thanks to my brother-in-law @volgrad90 • The brisket turned out super juicy with a great bark, decent smoke ring, passing the finger droop test, but most importantly absolutely delicious. Smoky, savory, succulent • @traegergrills @reloadrub @whiskeybentbbq @whiskeybentbbqproducts @kendrick_bbq @meatermade @rosewoodblock @allegro @meatchurch • 💨🔥💦 • #BBQLou #traegeron #traegergrills #traegerhood #traegernation #whiskeybentway #whiskeybentwaywards #allegromarinade #meatermade #reloadrub #meater #brisket #beef #bbq (at Oak Ridge House of Blues) https://www.instagram.com/p/CfMnchyjBMf/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Piles of wings for #wingwednesday • Fun cook for my daughter and her friends • First sprayed all the wings with a coat of Duck Fat Spray then seasoned half with Whiskey Bent Sweet Mash and the other half with the last of my Traeger Leinenkugel's Summer Shandy Rub. Super Smoked them at 225° using a Hickory and Cherry Wood Pellet blend on my Traeger Grills Ironwood 885 for 1½ hours then raised the Traeger temp to 375° to crisp them up and finish. • Flavortown on both these: Sweet, smoky BBQ palette on Whiskey Bent Sweet Mash wings, slightly tangy, fantastic flavors.

So Very Cherry... • Ribs. My favorite BBQ cook. First an ample yellow mustard slather for a binder then a heavy application of Whiskey Bent/Kendrick BBQ The Pecanerry Pecan Cherry BBQ Rub. Let that sweat in about 30 minutes while my Traeger Grills Ironwood 885 reached 225° on Super Smoke using a blend of... Pecan and Cherry Wood Pellets of course. Super Smoked the ribs using my Meater Plus Wireless Smart Meat Thermometer to monitor the internal temperature until the ribs achieved 200°, then glazed the rack with PS Seasonings Cherry Bomb BBQ Sauce and let that set up firm until IT on ribs hit 203° on my Meater Plus. Removed promptly, rested the rack for a few minutes while all the photos were taken, then devoured that deliciousness. Turned out amazingly gorgeous and uber delicious with a deep mahogany color and rich sweet cherry and smoked pork palette. Paired with Yazoo Brewing SUE Cherry Wood Smoked Imperial Porter to honor my BBQ Brother Bennie Kendrick, knowing cherry fruit and porter & stout beers are his favorite 👊🏻👊🏻🍻 • 4 S's - smoky, sweet, savory and very slightly spicy • Thanks for the cool handmade bottle opener and pig flipper Sis 🔥 • @traegergrills @whiskeybentbbqproducts @whiskeybentbbq @kendrick_bbq @meatermade @rosewoodblock @psseasoning @yazoobrew • 💨🍒🐖💨🍒🍺 • #BBQLou #traegeron #traegerribs #traegerbbq #traegergrills #traegerhood #traegernation #whiskeybentway #whiskeybentwaywards #goodfoodgoodmood #kendrickbbq #meatermade #smokedribs #yazoobrew #pecanerry #cherry #pecan #pork #ribs #bbq (at Oak Ridge House of Blues) https://www.instagram.com/p/CciHaiwu79y/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
