I’ve found the secret to perfect meat on the smoker, with a 100% success rate over the last 10 years. I’ve got a half Korean/half nigger friend that smokes professionally. I got asked to smoke a prime rib for Christmas, and thought it’d be like a brisket. It was done about 10hrs early. In a panic, I called my friend and asked what I could do. He suggested wrapping it very very tightly in tinfoil to keep the juices in, then wrap in towels and blankets, then put it in a cooler. I left the meat probe in, and it dropped 1 degree in 11hrs. It was hands down the BEST prime rib anyone in my family had tried. So I was having a dinner party with brisket, pulled it at 195 and let it set about 4hrs in the cooler. It was a little firm when I put it in the cooler, but jello when I pulled it out. On the cusp of pulled, but not quite. Perfect. The only mistake I had with this was putting two briskets in the same cooler. They continued to cook each other. Over thanksgiving, I had two 15lb turkeys, did the same thing and it was the best most tender Turkey. Not dried out at all. Give it a try, faggot. I’ve had nothing but success with the cooler method. It also pulls the heat back to the center of the meat, it allows you to prepare everything else, and the meat is done when the party is ready.
Buy 10lb brisket. Cut off outside fat where possible. Rub with spicy rub seasonings. Put on smoker at 190F for 2hrs with bowl of apple juice. Inject brisket with reduced apple juice and turn meat. Raise temp to 220F for 6hrs. Inject with reduced apple juice every time you open grill. Raise temp to 240F for 2hrs. Inject with reduced apple juice. Once meat internal temp is >190F, pull off and let sit for 2hrs. Slice across the grain in 1/4" thick slices. Eat
