Instructions

Prepare Brisket for Cooking

  • Sprinkle the brisket on both sides with salt and pepper. Combine the Worcestershire sauce and water in a mister.Prepare a fire for indirect-heat cooking in your smoker (the coals on one side only) with a water pan. Use oak wood chips, chunks or logs and keep up a good level of smoke.
    The smoker is ready when the temperature is between 275 and 300. If you have a pellet smoker then use oak pellets, a water pan and set the temperature to 250.

The Cook

  • Put the brisket in the smoker on the cool side of the grate and close the lid. Cook for 6 hours, adding wood as needed to keep the fire burning evenly. At this point, test the brisket with an instant-read thermometer; the internal temperature should read 165F. Remove the brisket from the smoker. Spray it with some of the Worcestershire solution (there will be a lot leftover), wrap it in butcher paper and return it to the smoker. Let it cook in the paper for 2 hours longer. Remove the wrapped brisket from the smoker and place it in an empty cooler or a 200F degree oven for 3 or 4 hours. The brisket is done when a toothpick passes effortlessly through the fat or an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center registers at least 185F but preferably as high as 203F.
