Purchased a new smoker last weekend. Have purchased a nice brisket. Have a recipe for a dry rub from a family member. Now to give this thing a try this weekend.
Smoked the brisket for almost a full 8 hours. Trying to figure out how much charcoal to use to get the temp. right. It took much more then I expected. I also had some pecan wood laying around the backyard from a old Pecan tree in the center of the backyard. Split this up using the hatchet my girlfriend brought with her when she moved in. This really added a wonderful smoky flavor to the meat. Next time I will get a full on brisket instead of what I pickup from HEB.
