Hello all.
So fri night I want to smoke my first brisket.
I've been searching through the threads and still have a few questions.
1st is the packers cut usually the way to go. I read the fat is important to render down and help flyover the meat but what about the membrane between the two sections?
2nd what would be the best temp to cook at. I've been reading 1 1/2 hours per pound as a starting point and think i saw that st 220 but not sure
3rd and I'm sure it's far from final but how long is the smoke usually added for. I plan on using pecan chunks in a vertical propane smoker. I'm looking at a 9lb brisket and don't want to over or under do it. Just looking for a starting g point as I have no idea.
Thanks for all the help and I will post on the q-view once I get starrted
