Smoked Brisket image

I got into smoking meat a couple of years ago, and just love it! Due to my disabilities, I have not been able to cook much, but the last few days I have gotten back into it slowly. I bought a new Cajun Injector Electric Smoker to make things easier for me. This Brisket was to die for! Delicious, juicy, moist, and as tender as it...

Number Of Ingredients 4

8 lb beef brisket
1/2 c pecan wood chips or pellets (use 1/4 cup every 3 hrs.)
apple juice

Steps:

  • 1. Get you're smoker going, heat to 225 degrees. Maintain this temp throughout entire time. Add wood chips. Place apple juice in water pan, fill it up and keep it full.
  • 2. Rub Recipe Ingredients 1 Cup Dark Brown Sugar 1/2 Cup Paprika 2-1/2 TBS Course (Salad Grind) Black Pepper 1-1/2 tsp Chili Powder 1-1/2 TBS Garlic Powder 1-1/2 TBS Onion Powder 1 tsp Cayenne (Red Pepper) 2 TBS Kosher Salt

  • 5. Wash the brisket, then lay it with fat side up. Score it on the diagonal.
  • 6. Rub brisket with prepared yellow mustard, then coat the meat with the rub. Wait 10 minutes, then turn it over so the meaty side is up. Repeat the mustard/rub step.
