The drugs they looked at were heroin, cannabis, nicotine, alcohol, methadone, amphetamine and MDMA. As described in Scientific Reports, they found that, at the level of individual use, four substances were classified as high risk: alcohol, nicotine, cocaine and heroin.
Prepping the brisket. Start with a brisket in the 10- to 12-pound range, which is just the right size to fit on the grill. Trim off the excess top fat or âfat cap,â but leave a Â¼-thick layer of fat to keep the meat moist during the long cooking process. Sprinkle on a few tablespoons of rub, spreading it evenly on both sides of the brisket.
Barbecued Brisket and Burnt Ends. Ten hours on the grill with a slather, a rub and a mop give this brisket an extraordinarily robust flavor. Paul Kirk's recipe calls for a whole packer brisket, which includes both the flat (the larger, leaner portion) as well as the point (the smaller, fattier part for the burnt ends). When slicing the brisket, cut perpendicular to the grain to keep the meat juicy.
