Default Little Dick's brisket fix!

Greetings,

I have an 8-pound brisket I plan to smoke tomorrow. I would like to inject (first time!) it tonight, smoke it tomorrow, eat it tomorrow night. I am planning to use Kingsford and the Minion method (for the first time!) on a 22.5 Weber One-touch Silver kettle and adding hickory chunks. I plan to smoke it for 6-8 hours then foil/finish in an oven. I DO have some questions though:

fire-building/maintaining suggestions?
injection suggestions?
rub suggestions? (I am using ingredients from the spice cabinet)
finish temperature?
anything else?

I hope I am not asking too much. Any quick hints will be appreciated...or direct me to a previous post. I'll follow-up with pr0n ("The Pr0n Promise!")!

Thanks,
Little Dick

Check out this link brotha it's got everything you would ever want to know Holy Grail as for a injection I inject my brisket with low sodium beef broth and my brisket rub ground fine in a magic bullet so it doesn't clog the injector. I load up my 12'' UDS charcoal basket with Stubbs briquettes or B&B Mesquite lump whatever I feel like at the time, I load up to where I won't need to refill better safe then sorry. but on your weber you can easily refill charcoal so you'll be ok just don't let it get to low in temp before you dump more coal on.As for rub I like John Henry Texas Brisket Rub its good stuff great on beef. I've been wrapping my last few briskets at 160* in foil with 3/4 of beef broth until it reaches 204 then draining the juices from the foil, wrapping it back up in the foil then into a moving blanket AND THEN dropping it into a cooler for a hour before I slice it. I like to cook briskets hot and fast at 325 -350 my last 14# took 6 hour including the rest in the cooler here's a few pic's good luck man I look forward to your PRON you'll do fine brotha practice makes perfect

The meat is trimmed, injected, rubbed, and in the pan for the overnight set. I'll be up early to get the grill up and the sschmoke billowing!

More to come,
Little Dick

Well, the beefer rode the thin blue smoke for four and a half hours and arrived at 174F internal; I think that's too fast. I need to monitor the Weber temp. better.



I took it off the smoke, added drippings from the smoker, foiled it, and put it into a 225F oven on my way to 205F internal.





More later!
