HICKORY SMOKED BRISKET
This simple but delicious recipe is amazing! I use a corned beef brisket (discarding the little package of spices that usually comes with it.) It is very good served with red new potatoes and red cabbage. The leftover beef is perfect for Reuben sandwiches. This is one of our family favorites.

BEST BARBECUE HICKORY-SMOKED BRISKET
This original recipe was printed in the insert cookbook that came with my crock pot many years ago. I adjusted it to suit our taste. This brisket is often requested for potlucks and during our football booster club days, it was prepared and sold at all home games. It can be served on buns with sliced onions and dill pickles or by itself. The cooking time reflects the marinade and cooling time.

Tips:
- Choose the Right Brisket: Select a well-marbled brisket with a nice layer of fat on top. This will help keep the meat moist and flavorful during the long cooking process.
- Prepare the Brisket: Trim excess fat from the brisket, leaving a thin layer on top. Rub the brisket generously with a mixture of spices and seasonings, ensuring that all sides are evenly coated.
- Set Up the Smoker: Preheat your smoker to 225°F (107°C) and add hickory wood chips for a smoky flavor. Place a water pan in the smoker to help maintain moisture.
- Smoke the Brisket: Place the prepared brisket on the smoker grate and cook for 6-8 hours, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Wrap the brisket in foil and continue smoking for another 2-3 hours, or until the internal temperature reaches 200°F (93°C).
- Rest the Brisket: Once the brisket is cooked, remove it from the smoker and let it rest for at least 1 hour before slicing. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a tender and flavorful brisket.
Conclusion:
Hickory-smoked brisket is a classic barbecue dish that is sure to impress your friends and family. By following these tips and using a quality brisket, you can create a delicious and memorable meal. Enjoy the smoky, tender, and juicy brisket that is perfect for any occasion!
