Smoked Brisket

I froze the thick end of the brisket I got for St. Patrick's day.  This week it got thawed and today I put it in my smoker.  It took about 6 hours at around 225º.  

the beans are a variation of this recipe

1  can Bushes pork and beans

1 TBS Rib rub seasoning 

1/4 C. Firmly packed brown sugar

3 oz. BBQ sauce

1/4 C. Molasses

1 1/2 two Liquid smoke

1/4 C. brisket chopped fine.

brisket fat if desired to taste.

I used bacon and bacon fat instead of brisket.  I adjusted the amounts to suit the smaller can of beans I had.

You don't see the green beans I made because I forgot to check on them and they got burned.
