Gotta say I always love these threads Smile

I have done some good pork BBQ (ribs, butt, etc) but never a briskest. Matter of fact I don't think I have ever even eaten beef brisket. It looks so good though.

Anyway, carry on with the pics and recipes!

While you may have never had smoked brisket (which is a crime in and of itself), I suspect you've most likely had brisket in some form or another. It's used to make deli meats like corned beef and pastrami, it's a common cut of beef used in many Asian dishes, and it is also commonly braised as a pot roast.

I'm thinking of starting one off sous vide to get it up to a higher starting temp and THEN moving it to the smoker.

I've done a bunch with my sous vide thingy since getting it in December. I'd definitely be up for trying it on a brisket at some point. Not been disappointed with results of the machine yet.

sig229-SAS, looks delicious, hope it tastes as good as it looks!

Looks like it turned out great.

I mainly use course ground salt and pepper then just dust it with this Oakridge BBQ Black Ops.

You'll have to try the Black Ops its really good.

How often and how long to you add smoke chips?

Every hour for the first 4 hours? Every hour for the first 8 hours? Every hour?

That looks REALLY good. I've never attempted brisket as I've always heard it's the toughest cut to get right. I stick to Pork butts and ribs and smoking fish. But need to venture out a little more.

Not overly difficult, though not as (nearly) fool-proof as pork butt.

It does take a bit of extra prep, trimming down the fat cap. And it takes longer on the smoker, since it's a bigger piece of meat. You also have to ensure you're slicing it properly, across the grain.

But there are a number of how-to guides online.

Mine is a pellet smoker, the auger brings in fresh pellets from the hopper continuously so the smoke never stops. The smoker flavor is just right with a nice smoke ring.

Shaql, what are you cookin’ with? It’ll change our answer.

For example, I’m a BGE cooker so I always advise against chips. Instead, put a couple inches of lump in, put 4 or 5 chunks of hickory, put a couple inches of lump in, put 4 or 5 chunks of hickory, rinse & repeat until full, and then light your chrcoal from the top. As it burns it’ll hit hickory and I never have to lose heat to open to add chips/chunks.
