First Brisket
 

Ok guys Im gonna try my hands at smoking my first brisket next week. Ive done butts and ribs but never a brisket. Im looking around the site and getting all the ideas I can but if anyone would mind just throw in a few ideas here and or tips, rubs anything to help I would appreciate it also.

Everything imaginable can be found in this thread.

Beat me to it. :thumb:

^^^what they said. barbafunkoramaque kinda laid down the law on that one.

I'll just throw in that it'd probably be a good idea to go with a straight up salt/pepper (dalmation) rub the first time out. Coarse salt, like sea salt or kosher salt, and coarse grind black pepper. Keep it simple on the rub! Other than that, you're looking for probe tender & rest - there's a lot of info to digest, but no need to overcomplicate it.
