re: Best Smoked Brisket Recipes Por Favor

I don’t use binder per se. I use lukewarm water and wipe down wet and then sprinkle rub all over, after trimming. I put it in at 200 for 4-6 hours and then up to 225. I also place it on the top rack with a pan below with some water. Keeping it as far from heat source as possible.

I smoke unwrapped until it hits 195 and then wrap with tallow and let it cool to 140-145 then put in warmer oven at 145 degrees for a long rest of 12 hours. It’s the Goldee’s method and since using this method my briskets have been the best I have ever made. Moist and tender and flavorful. I get the Goldee’s brisket rub at any Walmart in Texas.
