The smoke ring is purely visual. It does nothing to enhance the flavor. There are lots of articles around about the science behind it but bottom line is you don't need it. I even read where under the right conditions you can get a smoke ring with no smoke at all. Your brisket looks wonderful.

Good job, smokin! I'm doing my first brisket either Fri or Sat. If it comes out good, I'll start a Qview thread. If it doesn't, I'll post on Danny,s "let's talk brisket" thread to add to the "don't do this" database!
