Rookie Brisket Q-view
Well, after lots of help from you folks here at SMF, I finally finished cooking my first brisket. I put it in at 10, wrapped it in foil at 165 degrees, and took it off at 195 degrees at 9:00. Then I wrapped it in foil and a towel and put it in a cooler until 10. We sliced it at 10 to give it a... -

One more rookie brisket question
I'll try to take a pic this morning...I didn't take a pic last night because it was pretty late. It turned out pretty good, although not quite as tender as I would have liked. I think next time I'll try to cook it a little longer. The flavor was good, though, and it was a fun process. Thanks for... -
Newbie from Fla. Any other women in here???
Hi - I'm a newbie too...and also a woman. Got an MES 40 yesterday and am smoking my first brisket and ribs today. Hope they turn out great! I'm looking forward to learning lots of tips and tricks from this site! Claudia -
One more rookie brisket question
Thanks! Is there a rule of thumb for how long it takes for the IT to rise if the smoker is set for 228 degrees? Is it an hour per 10 degrees, or something like that? -
One more rookie brisket question
I have no idea. I think I'd like to slice it, but really I just want it to be done before midnight. Either way would be fine with me! :) -
One more rookie brisket question
Hi - I'm smoking my first brisket, and I have one more rookie question for y'all. I cooked the brisket until the internal temp got to 165, then wrapped it in foil and stuck it back in. I think I'm supposed to keep cooking it in foil until the IT gets to 195. So...do I just shove the cooking... -
rookie brisket mistake...I think
Great! Thanks for the responses. I think we'll give it a try....it'll be awhile, though. I'll try to post pics if and when it's finished! Thanks again for the help! Claudia -
rookie brisket mistake...I think
The probe was clean, and it was really hot because it had been hanging on the inside wall of the smoker. I had forgotten about the probe accessory, actually, and then remembered that the smoker came with a built in probe. That's when I stuck it in the brisket. Wow...there sure is a lot to learn... -
rookie brisket mistake...I think
Hi - I just bought my first smoker yesterday (MES 40) so of course I had to smoke something today. I put a brisket in at 10 this morning, and then stuck the probe in around noon. I think the temp when I stuck the probe in was about 125 or so. I didn't read the info on this site about not... -
Just joined...can't wait to learn from you folks!
Thanks for the warm welcome and the responses to my questions. So here's one more... Based on your responses, it sounds like I should have started the brisket way sooner than I did. It's a 7.25 lb. brisket, and one of you folks said I should cook it for 15 hours. That means we'll eat around 1... -
Just joined...can't wait to learn from you folks!
Hi - I just bought my first smoker yesterday...an MES 40. I preseasoned it this morning and put my first brisket in at 10. I have no idea what I'm doing, but I'm going to enjoy learning! I have a couple of questions. (well...actually I have a million questions, but I'll start with a few...) 1...
