Ingredients

All-South Bareque Rub
8 lb Beef Brisket

Directions

Step #1 Well, I fixed my first brisket this past weekend.
Step #2 Thanks to all bbq list folks for the helpful suggestions & recipes that made this endeavor a success.
Step #3 Most recommendations to me, posts & e-mail, were centered on the importance of slicing the brisket against the grain.
Step #4 Bear suggested baked beans for a side dish & I fixed that.
Step #5 I had some input from the southwestern part of the US on side dishes, unfortunately, but, many of the ingredients necessary for these recipes are not available here in WV.
Step #6 Here is the way I did it: 7:00 AM Friday morning.
Step #7 Unwrapped the brisket (8 lbs.
Step #8 ) & washed it down.
Step #9 Rubbed in the "All South Rub, & as per suggestions of Dwight's recent post," not too heavy, put his heavy coating of brown sugar to it.
Step #10 On to the H20, gas fired bullet smoker at 8:00 AM.
Step #11 Adjusted the flame as low as possible + a bit.
Step #12 One big, fist sized chunk of (1 hr soaked ) hickory.
Step #13 Water pan full.
Step #14 Put on the brisket, fat side up.
Step #15 At about 12:00 noon I checked it out & found that the water level was ok.
Step #16 & added, & maybe I'll not do this again, added another big chunk of hickory.
Step #17 Checked the water level again at 3:00.
Step #18 It was ok.
Step #19 At 5:00 PM (10 hrs later) I took it off & put in a roaster pan with about a half c of water.
Step #20 It was a nice brown color.
Step #21 Capped off the roaster pan with aluminium foil & put it in the refrigerator.
Step #22 That's it for day one.
Step #23 LAZY - Q, huh? Saturday.
Step #24 8:00 AM.
Step #25 In the oven at 185 degrees until 6:00 PM then took it out to cool for slicing.
Step #26 Yes, my mouth is watering from the aromas in the kitchen.
Step #27 By the way, I fixed a barbeque sauce, in the mid-afternoon, to serve on the side with the brisket.
Step #28 See Carey Starzinger's bbq sauce # 23.
Step #29 Now, at 6:30 sharp, drop-in guests from out-of-town hit the door, the totally unexpected, drank all of our beer & stayed until 11:30.
Step #30 At this time, 6:30 PM, just to be sociable, I quit drinking beer, so they could have it & I switch to scotch.
Step #31 At about 8:30, when I was finally able to face the handwriting on the wall, and still fairly sober, I did manage to put in the fridge the complete dinner & kept on smiling at the guests.
Step #32 Oh yes, I did invite them to have dinner with us, but was declined.
Step #33 So we hit the sack hungry & a little grumpy.
Step #34 Sunday.
Step #35 4:00 PM.
Step #36 Take the brisket, the beans, the dipping sauce out of the refrigerator & let them warm up on the counter for about a hr.
Step #37 Pre-heat the oven to 175 & put in the brisket at 5:30.
Step #38 I finally serve it at 7:00 & it is perfect! Finding the grain is no problem.
Step #39 You can cut this baby with a fork.
Step #40 If I made a mistake any mistakes at all, I might cut back on that last chunk of hickory.
Step #41 It was just a bit more smoky than necessary, so the wife suggested.
Step #42 I agree.
Step #43 I like a light smoke taste.
Step #44 Anyway, if you have a water smoker, don't believe that you can't fix a respectable brisket.
Step #45 Go for it.
Step #46 --.
