My first smoke.... a 10 lbs brisket.

[matt r]

Man, Im following this like a soap opera! Hows it gonna turn out?

It looks awesome so far, and the pics are great.

Sending much respect to you for hitting the brisket first time out...your a bold one!

cant wait for the money shot on this...

No don't peek.

9 hours now into the smoke. IT @ 193.5.

This is finishing much faster than I expected.

I have resisted the urge to peek but it smells amazing!!

 

[22gunslinger]

The brisket has been smoking now for 10 hours. IT @ 198.4.

Cook to probe tender not by temp.

Yea. I was gonna start checking at 200 degrees.

 

[22gunslinger]

It was probe tender right at 200. I pulled it out, double wrapped in foil and tossed it into a cooler full of towels.

Just let it ride, you are almost there :)

That thing will give you cold chills on the first bite.

hehe, It has been sitting in the cooler now for about 2.5 hours, dinner is not for another 4 hours or so. The temp is 166. Is it okay just to leave it in there resting? 

I honestly have no idea if that is what a brisket is supposed to look like, so I hope mine looks similar to some of yours. 

So I decided to make some cream cheese stuffed jalapeno, with a little smoky in there. My family loves when I make these but this is the first time I have smoked any.

This is GREAT! 22GS, you're gonna think brisket is the easiest piece of meat to cook in your smoker. Homework and patience pays off. Plus ABTs! (locally what jalapeno poppers are called! aka Atomic Buffalo Turds).

It's gonna be a great Veteran's Day 22GS!

Those pepper are gonna be in my smoker this weekend. Great idea.
