Hi, I am new to the forum and live in NY on Long Island. I am also new to smoking meats. I recently smoked an 8 pound pork butt on my Weber grill with smoking attachment. Thanks to Google I was able to make a delicious pork butt. That being said I want to smoke a brisket. I used apple wood for the pork and it was great. What wood can I use for the brisket and does anyone have a rub that they like to use?? I have done low and slow brisket in my oven and that was great too but I want to try something different. How many hours depends on how many pounds the brisket is right??? Thanks guys. I am glad I found this site. BTW I am female and I love to grill.
