Hey all, been some time since I've smoked. I am doing Jeff's brisket. And he says after 6 hrs to put in a pan and add broth and rub and foil it. But my brisket is smaller and so my question for anyone is what would be a good temperature to do this part of the process.

And at what temp does the addition of smoke no longer necessary.
 
I'm doing a brisket flat right now as well. What's the best way to make some wannabe burnt end using a flat?
 
I plan on just cubbing some up and throwing it back in the smoker in a foil pan with some sauce while the majority of the brisket rests. Probably will add a little broth to combat the loss of juices from cutting the chunk off...we'll see...
 
I'm just experimenting. Plus the burnt ends are my favorite and if I can perfeft them with a flat it would be good to know for the future. Also its an 8lb flat that I am making without plans to have people over as of now.
 

Sliced, couldn't get a picture till after half was gone already but here you go. Best one I've done so far.

I made Jeff's sauce but did less brown sugar and added a couple of squares of dark chocolate. Yes it worked nice just that little bit o chocolate flavor was interesting.
 
Glad you got you Brisky done , looks nice

.  just for kicks, take a shot at "No Foil" , following your temps. , you'll be good.

I wouldn't suggest that to an absolute 'Newbie' , but yours looked darn good . Seems time for that big step toward 'traditional' :




No foil(it was wrapped after the finish) , and it had great Bark and ( as you see ) fell apart.

A good reliable Therm. and Patience is needed , and a desire to step it up...

Have fun and ...
