I volunteered to make brisket. It's a 16 1/2 pounder choice cut. It was started covered outside for 1 hour while I heated the smoker. Then I out it in at 270?. It's up to 245? now at 11:30 pm and I lowered the smoker to 210?. When it hits 160? in the Masterbuilt Electric smoker I will wrap it in parchment paper then continue until it reaches 190?.
Then it gets wrapped in foil and towels and out in a cooler for 2 hours.
I will lost a pic on this thread before wrapping and when done. Anyone out there try it this way ?
 
I have a masterbuilt also. I cooked one 2 weeks ago in similiar method. I begin it at 225 degrees naked with a rub for 2 hours and then wrapped it in foil for another 10. It was almost too tender and tasted excellent. I rubb it and refrigerate it for 12 hours and when you slice it the ring color from the rub penetrates about 1/2 inch.The longer you cook it to reach the desired inside temp the better it seems to taste.

John,
I used a home made rub and then topped that with a second rub of Montreal Steak Season. I put it in smoker at 250? from 8 pm last night until about 11 pm when it reached 140?. Then I lowered the smoker to 220? and at 100 am it had started stall phase.
I double wrapped it in foil with 4 ozs of Apple cider. It hit 192? just now so I took it out and wrapped the foil in a towel and placed it in one of my coolers. Now it should hit about 205!? within 2 hours.
I will take a picture when I unwrap it.
 
Tastes great and next time I won't wrap to see how that works too.

I'll bet it tastes good DM - but you would get kicked out of Texas for trying to pass that off as smoked brisket down here. No smoke ring, no deckle crust, might as well serve it with sauerkraut, it ain't barbecue.


HOOK 'EM!

Just like they kick you out for poaching turtles. Does that explain why you haven't been back lately Eel?
