This is great. Thanks. Any tips on picking out the "right" brisket at the store? Seems like at HEB the ones I get are always loaded with fat. Any way to get around that? I like them leaner.

How long per pound does it typically take the way you cook it?

Normally takes an hour to hour 15 minutes per pound, but DO NOT cook your brisket by time. Follow the information above and just pre plan on hour and a half per pound, that way if your brisket finishes early you can just leave it wrapped and stick it in a cooler and let it rest. I've let my briskets rest in my small yeti for up to 6 hours and when I pull them out they are still piping hot and ready to roll.

This is a great thread. My Dad and uncle have been cooking briskets for family events and competition for over 30 years and have passed on some great "know-how". Although a slightly different approach, you can't go wrong with the details above. Great advice. |

I was in Costco today, they had USDA Choice brisket for $2.59 a pound and USDA Prime for $2.89 a pound. After reading about everyone here struggling to smoke a good brisket, I was leery of spending $50 on a brisket and it come out tough, dried out, or nasty.

USDA choice was $2.99 a pound at Costco on Friday. I wouldn't hesitate to buy one and smoke it using his instructions after how mine turned out.

They only had 4 Prime and all were very thin on one end and very thick on the other. I know you said you like the thickness to be as uniform as you can find from one end to the other. The Select cuts were more uniform in thickness. I'm an hour from Costco, so it will probably be at least a few weeks before I make it back over there.

They turned out awesome as well. An easy 9 on the scale. This was the first full size rack I've done (non-baby back). Taste and texture was fabulous. However, I want to somehow work on the tenderness a little. Somewhere in between fall off the bone and chewy.

great information. Most people pull their brisket way to early because the meat thermometer says well done is 180. They think taking a brisket will cause the brisket to be dry. I usually always take mine to 195? and then into a cooler for a few hours.

Don't pull it based on temperature, pull it when it probes tender. It differs from brisket to brisket. I've pulled them as low as the upper 90's and as hot as 210 ish... it all depends on the brisket.

I'm going to try to smoke my first brisket for Christmas. Tyler e-mailed me his instructions when this thread was first posted. I think it's time I give it a try.

It was great! My wife said we would definitely be smoking some more briskets. My brisket didn't have the heavy bark on it, but the flavor was awesome. Out of the 8 people eating it, only 2 used BBQ sauce.
