Using Smokers for BBQ Brisket

Video Transcript

On behalf of Expert Village, I'm Terry and today I am going to give you tips on smoking a beef brisket. Okay this particular grill comes with two grates. You can smoke two levels. Put a grate here just above the water bucket. You can put meat on that grate and you can also put meat on that grate and smoke at two levels. For my brisket, I like to get as close to the water as I can. The brisket will go down in there. There is a temperature dial right here where I can control. That makes it a lot easier. You can also buy one that is not electric and you have some large ones that have five or six racks in them. This one has two racks to where you just use the chunks, you use the large chunks and once you get the coals going, you want the coals white and glowing before you add your meat. Then as you go along, you take a bucket of water and you throw some chunks in the water and let it soak for 5 or 10 minutes. These will be your smoking chips. On your non-electric one, you use chunks. This will be your fuel and the small chips will be your smoking chips. Once it gets in, they are are soaked in the water and then you lay them on the coals. They won't catch fire but they will smoke. That is where your smoking effect will come through. What you want is your smoke going through the meat. It's not really the heat cooking the meat, it's the smoke and what the smoke does is preserve it.
