Ran into a pitmaster at a gas station in Memphis who changed my brisket trim

He was just grabbing a soda, but he saw my cooler and asked if I was competing. When I said yes, he pointed at my packer and said, 'You're leaving too much on the cap, that's your money.' I shaved another quarter inch off the fat and took 3rd place. Anyone else get a random tip that actually worked?

Ever have someone just tell you to wrap your ribs in foil sooner? Changed my whole cook.

My buddy got told to spritz his pork butt with apple juice instead of water at a hardware store. His next one was way better lol.

Doesn't that just make the bark sticky, grant478?
