Hey my name is Ian and in out on Rio Rancho New Mexico. I have a Oklahoma Joe Bronco Drum Smoker that I picked up a couple months ago. Smoked ribs, chicken and tomorrow I'll be smoking my second brisket.
New to the smoking game

Thanks I've had it on the smoke for roughly an hour now. Trying to keep it around 250
Thanks. I'm really interested in learning how to turn out a good brisket low, slow and no wrap.

Well it's done. Almost 11 hours on the smoker at 250 with briquettes. Went 9 unwrapped and sat at 164. Had some family coming over so I got nervous at 9 hrs and wrapped it in foil. It rested 1.5 hrs after I pulled it off. Kind of sad that I did it due to the fat cap getting too soft for my preference. I dont know much about the cut but I feel this one was mostly flat with a small piece of point and it was definitely on the lean side. Everyone like it so it a win for me. If you are good enought to give some critique from just viewing the pictures to make me better feel free to. I would appreciate any help. Also when I put the brisket on initially it was wide and long. Seems like it was shorter and got thicker in the cook. Any reason why? I didnt notice that on the first one I smoked

Looks nice and juicy. Excellent smoke ring too. Everyone liked it, right? Good flavor and tender?
That's all you can ask for, right? Great job. If you're unhappy with the Fat cap being too soft, next time trim a little more of it off before seasoning and cooking. Thanks for sharing.
