I have had some success with Brisket on the WSM, moist and tender, but not "fall apart" texture, you know, that you can pull the meat apart with your hands. The reason that I ask this, is that the last couple of trips to Texas, namely, Rudy's BBQ www.Rudys.com, Colter's BBQ, Pappa's BBQ, etc, the meat is very tender, it falls apart. It seems that this is the texture that my friends at work prefer, when I bring in my brisket for them to sample. They love the smokey flavor and taste of my brisket, but wish it was sort of "Pot Roast" like.
How do you make Brisket very tender and falling apart?
This is how I do my brisket.
1) 12 hrs overnight midnight MM method
2) spray with Apple juice,
3) foil at 165F, baste with more apple juice,
4) remove from smoker when temp reaches around 200F
5) rest in foil 2-3 hrs before slicing
This works for me, moist and tender, flavorful brisket, but not falling apart, like my friend have requested.
How can I get Texas type brisket on the WSM?
