Lee's Hickory Smoked Whole Beef Brisket

It has taken me many years to figure out smoked brisket. In my younger days, I threw many out the back door in frustration. Dogs loved it. I was simply not cooking them long enough. Hope this helps in your brisket making.

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Season Brisket liberally with your rub, and coat well with the yellow mustard. Place in the refrigerator overnight.

The next day... Let the brisket come to room temperature. Meanwhile prepare your smoker and bring to temperature. I like it to be around 250 degrees.
- 3
Place on smoker fat side up. Let the brisket smoke on low heat for about 3 hours. I'm not trying to cook at this point, just a good long smoke.

When done smoking, place brisket in a large pan and add your favorite beer and cover. This will become your sauce at the end. Cover and cook in the oven at 225 degrees until done. The time until done will vary. An 8 pound brisket will take around another 6-7 hours in the oven. I cook mine until it jiggles like jello. Internal temperature of around 200-205 degrees.

I know this might seem overcooked, but it's not. Let it rest until it comes to room temperature. Refrigerate it overnight. Then you can cut it and get nice slices. Note: After slicing cover well with all the leftover juice's from the pan. Message me with any questions. Enjoy

I love real BBQ in the summer, and this is my recipe for a brisket rub. It's all to taste, and the amount you make depends on the size of your brisket. Use this for general proportions and remember, it's hard to mess this up so be creative. Buffalowolff -

Mike's Smoked Peppered Beef Brisket Mike's Smoked Peppered Beef Brisket
Some of my brand new students [two weeks in to their lessons] insisted upon smoking their own briskets. Heh! They can't even fry an egg at this point. Anyway, as usual, I relented. While they smoked a 3 pound brisket - I smoked a 20 pounder for the holiday.Needless to say - THEY NAILED IT! Great work kiddos! Your brisket was not only juicy, but smoky and delicious as well! I tell ya. There's no such thing as a stupid kid .... 😆For best success, ask your butcher for the most limp brisket [meaning less connective tissue] the best marbling and fat on top he has. You'll also want a brisket slab that's equal sized on all parts for balanced smoking. MMOBRIEN -
