Brisket

[Pete Vance]

I am new to the forum so excuse me if I am asking a question that has been answered before.

I want to smoke a brisket this weekend but the only one I can find locally is a select grade. Has anyone smoked this grade of brisket and what results have you had?

It has been a while since I did a brisket and the one I did before was furnished by my son who had a fresh butchered beef.

I am using a Weber 18" charcoal smoker and will also be doing a small butt using apple and oak for the smoke.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Select is run of the mill.Nothing wrong with it...
