grilling brisket

[Breeze]

Hey its BBQ month like that really means anything to me. OK so I have her soaking in my jerky sauce, was going to cook on Sunday, not sure how long to soak. I would think longer is fine but maybe not.
Going to cook indirect using side grill thingy.
I read on a forum fat side down, normally you would think up. This person states it helps keep meat from getting too hot but....

In my grill the hot area is going to be above the meat because it will be indirect heating so it would seem fat up is better than down.
This person also said the fat drippings will just drip off and around meat, that actually makes sense.

OK what about covering meat at any time during cooking, is this something you just have to do so it won't dry out?

I am thinking of using bacon this time. So maybe I will go fat down and bacon on top.

Anyway if Collin isn't busy or anyone else for that matter could give me some pointers gopher it.

So...How's the brisket turning out?

There was an article in Parade magazine today where Jeff Foxworthy said "if you give a redneck a billion dollars, all he'll want is a bigger grill."
He also said "Why do men do the grilling while womendo the cooking in the kitchen?"
"You got fire, you got lighter fluid.....guys like grilling for the sheer danger of it."

The best I have ever had ... ok not the best but reallhy easy to eat. I could have smoked it longer before wraping in foil.
Still it took about 10 hours .. I went 3 more with some ajustments.

It was just like having a baby .. kept waking up and checking grill.

Still lot of fun!
