First Smoke New Owner of Model one, Cooking a Brisket for the first time

[DivotMaker]

CJ,  Now you're talking!  The post where you got my injection recipe was a full packer cut brisket, I think in the 13 lb range.  To fit in the #1, I cut in half, lengthwise, put the point end on the lower shelf, and the flat on the upper shelf.  The point end takes longer to smoke, so it "shields" the thinner flat above.  Works out fine.

I am glad it worked out for you.  I have probably cooked 10 briskets using the method I outlined.  Very consistent.  I have no intention of cooking briskets any other way now in these units.  Reinventing the wheel can be fun but if you want fat that dissolves and tender moist meat......give it a try.  Adjust the seasonings to your flavor but use the method for the moisture & tenderness!  Good luck.
