alright, im finally getting a chance to use the smokie okie method for a brisket. ii bought this peice of meat a few weeks ago hoping to do this, but work has got the best of me lately. i sure hope mine turns out like all the folks writing great reviews on this style because i just spoke with my buddy who owns a bar and serves one meal for lunch everyday and will use my brisket provided the sample i give him of this smokie okie beef is good. i really do trust all you guys and gals and have read lots on this, so i feel pretty confident. wish me luck, jack
