Cassie has been telling me about Bechelmeyer Meats which has a very good reputation for meat and the Mexican food next door. I decided to go there on Wed. and get a brisket and use a lot of the flat for corned beef for dinner later in the month. Today I smoked the point and remainder of the flat. I smoked it for 8 hours and it looked like it could go two or three more hours but I ran out of patience and fuel so it is done and moist but not falling apart tender.
