Smoked Beef Brisket

I’m smoking my very first brisket tomorrow. Well technically starting it tonight. I’ve got the general plan down I just wonder if I should baste in bbq sauce for the last stages or not?

Any other tips or tricks I should know?

I would baste near the end, it shouldn’t need any BBQ sauce added by the eaters to taste good, that’s my only advice and it’s secondhand as I don’t have a smoker. Good luck, get lots of pics and share them please!!

Reached first stage temp about 4 hours early…

Not sure what to do if I hit 200 4 hours before everyone shows up. Lol

They suggest keeping your head in the smoker for the entire time. Just close the lid…

What was the final verdict?

Fantastic! I’ll spend that money and do that again anytime.
