That's right E Z. I seasoned it and let it sit all night in the fridge, then I sear it on my gas grill just like a steak. Then I smoke it for about 4 hours, after that I wrap it in foil and add some broth to it. Back in the smoker to finish, you could even do this last process in your oven, cause you don't add anymore chips to it. I keep my smoker set at 225* the entire time and usually the process takes about an hour per pound. If your brisket has a lot of fat, trim it just a little before seasoning. You do want to leave about a 1/2 inch of fat on it. You also want to smoke it fat side up. Hope this helps.

I got to remeber that too . I tried one when i first got my smoker , it tasted fine but was kinda tough , any sugguestion ?

By wrapping it in foil and adding some broth you finish cooking it and steam it tender at the samr time.

That's right, I actually use stock instead of broth. I stated that wrong a while ago. The stock has more salt and seasoning in it, so it is less trouble.

Love me some brisket! Looks Great Feesh

Bet that thing was good.
