Smoked Beef Brisket With Sauerkraut and Dumplings image

Here is our family favorite brisket recipe: This recipe is a combination of cool smoking and good old Pennsylvania Dutch cooking. The smoke flavoring blends deliciously well with the sauerkraut and the dumplings. NOTE: Do not use corned beef brisket, this recipe requires a fresh brisket. Source : Shadows
