Wife picked up small corned beef brisket today and I am going to smoke it. Do I need to do anything different than if doing a regular brisket?
I agree with Jake. And you will be happy.For smoking it I'd soak some of the salt out in cold water for a few hours changing the water every hour or so. Other than that smoke it like a brisket
I guess I never really thought about it.I was just going to smoke it like I do with a regular brisket.What flavors are you going for? Pastrami?
We definitely are not salt people so that certainly something I will do.After soaking I would do a little fry test where you trim a small slice and fry it up. Eat it and see if it is still too salty. If you think "It might be a little salty" then it is.
Resoak and try again later. When it is NOT a little too salty then it is good to go.
This will save you from wasting time and nail your salt level :)
