Cleveland BBQ isn't half bad either.

The best BBQ I've ever had was prior to 1986 when I moved to Texas, it was from Leo's Bar-B-Q in OKC. I think it was on Kelly? Great meat and sauce to die for.

If you are talking about the outside, that's the way you want it. Those crispy bits have a ton of flavor. If you are talking about the inner part of the meat, you don't want to eat a brisket medium rare. That first bite would take you 10 minutes to chew through.

The outside is perfect, looks

.

The inside could use a touch of red, but I agree definitely not med rare for brisket.

I will admit that was my first one, and I went a little light on the smoke. The last one I cooked back in the fall had a good 1/4" ring and topped this one by far. But it didn't sit around long enough for pics.
