Here is my first attempt a doing a Brisket.
Right out of the package and rinsed
All powdered and primped
Done resting
Sliced.
Unfortunately my brisket, while tender, is dry. I think next time I won't follow Solaryellow's recipe, but wrap at 175F.
One of the problems I had was that I was using a new smoker. I had a hard time keeping the temp. set. I spent a good 1.5 Hrs trying to get it to work. I finally had to chat with Char-broil.
Another issue I had was that on the food IT setting, the smoker runs full tilt. It got up to 275F before I caught it.
It's going to take some time to figure out just how to use my new smoker. I should have smoked something a little less expensive than a brisket.
