Awesome build Eli, well done. The next time you want to do a brisket first cook it at home in a soup vide cooker, then in the field all you need to do is throw it on a grill to char the outside. Here is a link: There are many ways to season it but it will be the best brisket you ever make. I use 3 wet and 12 dry spices to season mine, cook for 48 hours at 133 degrees. I am terrible at turning a wrench and I am always impress at people who are capable of doing something this well. Is paint in your builds future?Went camping at Goffs California because of an Olaf Event. The main reason for this event was to raise money for Mojave Desert Heritage and Cultural Association (@TheMojaveRoad on Instagram) they manage the property and monitor most the Mojave Desert.
Shaine joined me on this trip we had a blast. So much cool history to check out. Mining equipment, functioning rock crushers, blacksmithing hands on demos, vintage vehicles and a museum with WWII artifacts and other vintage items.
Camping wise we tried some new gear we thought could make life a little easier. We also tried our hand at cooking a brisket in a dutch oven on a propane fire pit. it did not turn out well. The brisket was burnt and the fat didn't melt like we thought it would, lesson learned. We tried to eat as much as we could, It wasn't really edible.
The Event offered two Trail Runs on Saturday. Run 1 was to Fort Piute and Run 2 was a section of the Eastern Mojave Heritage Trail. I chose the EMHT. 70ish miles, chill-worry-free mile just driving through some scenic desert.
1st trail run ever
Saturday evening, Tacos and a raffle was held in the main area, Superwinch donated a lot of stuff. Sadly, I did not win anything but the taco were good and better than our brisket from the night before.
I was given this patch from the gentlemen who scouted out the Mojave Heritage Trail. First patch for this truck, Thank you.
