Hi all, I first want to say thanks to everyone on this site who told me to get an Amazen pellet smoker for my masterbuilt 40. I was having trouble getting blue smoke but today everything was great.
So I smoked my first brisket today. Bought an 8 pound flat. Injection, rub, and smoke was all fine. I cooked it for 3 hours at 250 and then wrapped it (the temp was 150) , I wrapped it with a bit of beef stock until it hit 195 then put the foiled beef in towels for one hour. The flavor was fine but it was pretty dry.
I put it in the foil fat side down. Should I have done it with the meat side down?
Any suggestions are appreciated.
