Instructions
-
Preparing the Brisket
Set your smoker temperature to 200-225°F. Trim thick patches of fat and cut one corner across the grain to leave you a guide to slice when it's done (against the grain)
-
Season and Smoke
Dry rub both sides with kosher salt, coarse ground black pepper and your favorite chili powder. Smoke for 6-8 hours un-wrapped over a water pan (add 1/4 Olive oil to water in pan). Check internal meat temp (at this point it should read 140°-150°F)
-
Wrap and Continue Cooking
Double wrap brisket in foil or peach butchers paper and put back on smoker. Internal temp should rise 10°F every hour, but check meat with probe in the same spots through top of foil until it reaches 190°-200°F.
-
Rest and Serve
Brisket is done when probe goes in meat like going into soft butter (internal meat temperature is only a guide). Let rest for about an hour before slicing. Add your favorite Country Bob's Barbecue Sauce and enjoy!
