3lb beef brisket going in today.

[Jgettyusmc]

Doing a 3lb brisket… only my second time doing brisket so I’m a bit of a FNG…. So any and all advice is welcomed! As well as questions or stupid comments lol all welcome here

Real quick run through of my plan.
Coating it with oil, salt and pepper
Cooking at 225
Spay it every hour or so.
Cooking till internal hits 205
Resting wrapped for 1 hour

Questions I have already that may begin a discussion…best temp to remove from heat and wrap in butcher paper?? Or are we looking mainly at getting that good bark first, before we wrap?

Input is welcome! Enjoy your day! And stay tuned for pictures throughout the process!

I'm in. Remember to probe for tenderness. Briskets are done when they are tender not smoked to a temp.

I’m guessing that you have a small flat, so this may help you.

BRISKET FLAT, MY WAY

It's no secret that a lot of folks have a problem smoking a small well trimmed brisket flat. I to had my struggles for a while, but a couple of years ago I found this method and have been using it ever since. So I would like to share my method with all of you. If you already are successful...

Sorry, posting this later than expected…
Turned out with good bark, good flavor, just not as much moisture in the meat as I had aimed for, it’s not dry, it’s just not juicy. But over all, I’m fairly pleased!

 

[TNJAKE]

Looks tasty. Is that a corned beef brisket?

Yea it’s corned beef brisket! Not my favorite kind of brisket, but it’s better than eating crayons…lol

 

[TNJAKE]

Nothing wrong with that. I make pastrami out of the corned beef briskets. Tasty stuff
