Yep!  Saw that vid when it came out a couple of weeks ago and plan to try the method in a few weeks when I have time to smoke another brisket.  My tallow just arrived this past weekend and I'm ready to give it a shot!  I've eaten at Franklin's and chatted with the guys doing the smoking.  Fantastic BBQ, super friendly people.  He's pretty well regarded as being the master of the brisket and having some of the most consistent briskets anywhere.  If tallow is his secret, my brisket game is going to go up a few points pretty quick!
