Fool Proof Brisket?
Hello All,[p]I'm looking for a foolproof recipe for brisket. I've got ribs and butt down, I'm looking to move up in the BBQ hierarchy by cooking my first successful brisket. I've got a 4.5 full brisket (not flat) and I just need dome temp, internal meat temp, estimated time for cook and whether or not to foil. I would like to get this baby to be tender rather than tasting like shoe leather -- like all my other brisket. Any help is greatly appreciated.

"The Gator Griller",[p]Not to be a smart a@@ here, but (truthfully) if you were to come up with a "Fool Proof" brisket, you would be a very wealthy man! It is, at this point in man's history, just not possible![p]The best tip is: make sure you start with quality meat - the best you can get. But, you already have a really small brisket(?)so hopefully it falls within my best tip guidelines.[p]Check out dizzy pig's site which walks one through the process.[p]Good luck.

"The Gator Griller",[p]My last brisket #6 of 6 came out only pretty good. Not great but still tender enough to be enjoyable in a bun.[p]The bigger the piece of meat you get the better the chances are of a success from all I'm learning. My last one was about 9 pounds as I recall and the largest I've done. Still trying to catch up to some of the Forum's Great Brisket Chefs. [p]Pulled pork in any for is a lay down. An idiot can make them come out good. [p]Brisket? "That's my windmill Pancho."

"The Gator Griller",[p]Mo such thing as a fool proof brisket. A wise man once said "brisket is one wicked mistress". That being said take a look at the link and I hope it helps.
