It's been a while since I have used my WSM, or posted pics of a cook, so I dug the smoker out of the garage to do a 12 pound brisket. Seasoned it up and went out to fire up the smoker.

Brisket on. Full ring of Royal Oak lump and some hickory and apple for a little smoke.

Thin blue smoke coming out of the WSM. Doesn't really show up in the pic though.:-{

Some action shots. Put some foil under the ends so they didn't burn too bad. Also had to spin the grate a few time during the cook so the brisket would cook more evenly. Looks like I need to clean the dome on the smoker.:o

Temp. of the brisket is 160 so it is time for it to get put in to a pan and foiled up until tender. This is at the 6 hour mark. Used a medium heat cook this time. Ran the smoker at about 275ish for most of the cook.

Will try to update later with the finished product.

My wife said we need to have a few more adult beverages to celebrate the Packer's win!:cool:

Stay tuned.


Thanks for looking!

Brisket looks TERRIFIC!!
 
Here are a few pics of the final product. The pics do not do justice to how good this turned out. Very tender and great flavor.

Wow, best looking Brisket pics I've seen in a LONG time! I can just imagine the taste of that juicy looking piece in the last pic.
 
that is gorgeous!
so , you foiled it at 6 hrs....how long was the whole cook? i know its tenderness , not time ,that dictates when its done , but im just curious what the total time was in this case. .....and how much charcoal did you use ? sorry to be so inquisitive , but i havent attempted a brisket yet and im trying to amass as much data as i can, i want mine to look like that !:wsm:
 
Love it, that's how I hang my lid too. Best brisket I've seen in a long time. Thanks for posting the cook.
