I bought a pre-corned corned beef in vacuum packaging at the supermarket. rinsed it off, rubbed it with pepper, coriander and garlic before slow smoking it on my Little Brown egg. Due to one of my wiring requiring a re-crimping after an hour I had some low temps for a bit, but between 200-225 it cooked for about
3.5 hours before hitting a consistent 165 internal temp (Used apple wood).
It was only 3.5 lbs so that's why it cooked fast.
I wrapped it for 1 hour in foil before slicing a few slices for dinner. It was really tasty, MUCH more mild flavor than when I used the wrong kind of wood (either mesquite or hickory), but the texture was slightly rubbery/chewy. Still, an excellent second attempt.
Any tips on how to get better texture?
