Brisket and Burgers with the Smobot

Had a small brisket (4.2lbs) so I smoked it today. Threw some burgers on after just to make sure of had enough meat! I smoked the brisket with oak at 225 with just salt and pepper. I foiled it when it hit 140 to avoid drying such a small hunk out. When I was done I made a couple burgers. I just kept the indirect setup and bumped my Smobot up to 400 and threw on a fresh small hunk of oak. Just salt and pepper on the burgers as well. Everything turned out great. Brisket was fairly moist and very tender. I've dried out small hunks before, so I was happy with that. The burgers were surprisingly good. I haven't made them indirect before, but they got a really nice color and had a great smoke ring.

    Looks good nicely done!! Lol the brisket is tiny. I honestly thought the first picture was a steak.
