Cooking tips from Beef. It’s What’s For Dinner.
- Tip 1: Trim fat from whole brisket cuts that may interfere with the spice distribution. Alternatively, you can substitute a whole brisket for a brisket flat or point, which have less fat.
- Tip 2: If speeding up cooking time is desired, the ‘Texas Crutch’ method can be used, which involves the use of foil to trap heat and shorten overall smoke time. To do this, the brisket should be cooked for 3 hours before it’s wrapped in foil and gets returned to the smoker for its remaining cook time.
4. Sprinkle and press the spice mix into the brisket, making sure it’s evenly distributed on all sides.
5. Insert an ovenproof meat thermometer into the thickest part of the brisket. The thermometer’s temperature probe should not be resting on fat.
6. Place the recipes inside the smoker. Follow manufacturer instructions on meat placement.
7. Set a timer. The brisket can be cooked in the smoker for up to 12 hours. Timing ultimately depends on the cook’s desired smoke flavor.
