    Bark Testing

    I would like to experiment with different brisket rubs and see how the bark turns out for each, but I don't want to buy a whole packer for each test. Y'all think using chuck roast would be an adequate alternative test subject?

    I don't see why not. That is a pretty good idea. Or you could section a packer out and try it that way.

      I have done the exact thing while developing my brisket rub. I use 1/2 racks of St.Lewis ribs for pork rub.

        as long as I didn't crutch. Crutching a "bROASket" seems to skew the results for me.

        Great to know. But you still crutch the briskees?

        yes. The chucks nasked finish about when the briskets would get wrapped.

      That should work and you could cut the chuckys in half so that you could test more rubs on fewer hunks o' meat.

      Another idea would to take a chuck and grind it up to make some patties and use that. Then you could have a bunch to experiment with. Then make em into chuck hamburger type sandwiches
