    Brisket - How do you rub it?

    I've only tried brisket once before. Just used Kosher Salt, black pepper and Garlic powder. Came out pretty nice but I'm in hopes to do a better job this time.

      kosher salt, ground black pepper, garlic powder and a bit of cayenne. I don't wrap, I don't mist.

        I don't mist either I just have a small pan of water sitting on my diffuser to add a little moisture to the smoke.

        I use a pellet grill now and don't even bother with extra moisture anymore and still get good bark.

      Kosher Salt, Fresh Cracked Pepper Corns (coarse) and [sometimes] Spanish Paprika for a just little kick. I'm a carnivore and relish the taste of the meat so "less is more" (IMHO). For wood Apple or Oak for a brisket. Not a fan of Hickory or Mesquite when doing brisket too strong of a smoke flavor.

          I'm no pro, but I've listened to several friends who are.

          I rub with coarse salt (always coarse!), black pepper, a little cayenne, coffee, and sometimes garlic.

          Occasionally, I marinate/ brine first.

          I'm limited in my success by an inability to fit a full packers cut on my 18" Weber, but I was pretty pleased with the flavor the few times I've done it (either points, or a half a packer.) And I definitely use mesquite (a mix of briquettes and lump). It's Texas style through and through.

          Next year I hope to get a bigger grill and make a habit of it.

          Also worth smoking over mesquite: mac and cheese, chicken thighs, cheeto puffs.

            I did a full packer over apple over the long weekend. Use kosher salt and fresh ground black pepper with nothing else. It was really good.

            I have yet to figure out how to do poultry in a smoker and have it come out tasting anything close to what I would call good.

              Brisket is just about the only thing I miss about living in Texas. Anyone down there want to bring me some?!

                I sit on my hand for 5-10 minutes first.




                Course salt, fresh cracked black pepper, garlic and onion powder, and a bit of ground coffee, cayenne pepper.

                    Don't rub it too much or the juices will escape.

                    Now this seems more like an MCB thread.

                      I've had this same issue. Usually ends up too dry.

                        Full Bird, brine, butter under skin, cavity stuffed with chopped onion/apple, trussed up tight, thermometer in deep in thigh. Smoke for the first 2 hours then finish wrapped in foil. Pull from smoker @ 165 degrees F. Usually takes 4-5 hrs for a good sized bird with smoker at 225 degrees F.

                        No, it was moist, just didn't taste right.
