Brisket
Mustard or binder

pellets for pellet grill

Directions:
Directions:
Prep Brisket by trimming fat cap to ¼ inch and trim off any silver skin. Apply binder or mustard on brisket and season with your favorite brisket seasoning. I use my cousin Duane's recipe.

Step 1: Smoke at 250º for 4 hours in middle rack - fat side down. Add foil pan to bottom rack to collect drippings. Make sure your water pan in the smoker has water in it.

Step 2: Increase temp to 300º and continue to smoke for 2 hours.

Step 3: Decrease temp to 150º - remove from smoker place in a foil pan and pour 16 oz of brisket marinate, beer or whatever your preferred liquid is over the brisket. Tightly wrap pan with 2 thick layers of tinfoil. Return to the smoker and let smoke for 6-7 hours. I usually do this during the night while I sleep.

Step 4: Increase temp to 225º and smoke until brisket reaches internal temp of 203º this took about 3-4 hours depending on the size of your brisket and temperature outside. Monitor it.

Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
This recipe was adapted from a recipe 4-2-10 brisket for a Pit Boss Smoker - We didn't have luck with it getting to internal temp of 203º when smoking at 150 degrees.
