Good Afternoon, All,
This is my first brisket smoke. Using the MES 30" (Model 20071117). For Thanksgiving next week I thought I would smoke a smaller brisket in supplement to our baked Turkey to give my guests some options.
As you know, everyone has their own methods to smoking. I was thinking of running the smoker at 225-230F until IT of around 185-190. I am using oak pellets and expect around 5-6 hours.
Any recommendations to the above approach? Use juice in the drip ban? Spray the brisket often?
Thanks in advance for help and Happy Thanksgiving to all!
