Classic Smoked Beef Brisket
Classic Smoked Beef Brisket
- Preheat smoker to 225°F.
- Combine garlic, paprika, pepper and salt in small bowl. Sprinkle and press evenly into beef brisket on all sides and edges.
- Insert oven-proof meat thermometer so tip is centered in thickest part of brisket (but not in the fat). Place brisket on rack in smoker.
- For brisket that slices easily, remove brisket from smoker after 10 ½ to 11 hours or when temperature reaches 195°F. For brisket that can be shredded or chunked, remove it from smoker at 12 hours or when temperature reaches 205°F.
A whole brisket makes approximately 24 servings. It is perfect by itself or served with your favorite barbeque sauce. It also makes for an incredible sandwich, taco or breakfast burrito!
