Beef Brisket Smoking in a Brinkmann Gourmet Electric Smoker With Hickory Chips


In earlier days, beef brisket was considered an inferior cut of meat, and was either tossed out or turned into hamburger. The cooking techniques of the day did nothing to tenderize this tough cut of meat. And then it was discovered that brisket is a real treat when cooked low and slow. Cooking for extended periods at a low temperature breaks down the tough connective tissue in the brisket, releasing its great flavor. In spite of this discovery, the price of beef brisket is reasonable, so it can be an economical choice for feeding friends and family.


My favorite, Peppered Bay and Garlic Brisket is slow smoked, which makes this cut of meat fork tender and juicy. The flavors of garlic and bay transform the brisket into a delectable delight!


Economical and Tasty

Beef brisket is a great tasting and affordable meat that benefits greatly from long cooking sessions. You have to be careful that you don't let the brisket dry out. Basting regularly and maintaining the smoking temperature between 200 and 225 degrees helps to minimize moisture loss of the meat.

I always buy brisket untrimmed, and cook it with the fat side up. As the fat melts, it bastes the brisket, keeping it moist and tender.
