Hello, recently received my #3 and smoking a brisket overnight. Using suggestions from a bunch of posts decided to keep it simple. This is the plan and always open to suggestions.
On short notice purchased a 6 1/2# packer, Choice Angus(all they had). Didn't trim since there didn't appear to be more than a 1/2" of fat anywhere.
Seasoned with kosher salt and refrigerated at 1pm. Planning to take out at 11pm and season again with yellow mustard, course black pepper and garlic powder.
Lined smoker with foil on bottom and smoker box. Made hole for drain and will have pan below.
Into the high rack on the smoker, cap down with instant read prongs attached, a tin of apple juice on the bottom and 225 heat.
Remove at 195, wrap, place in cooler for an hour or so, and enjoy.
So goes the best laid plans...
Thanks, Ray
