I have tried to do several, smoked in the 225 range and can never get the desired results. Its always dry and bland. I have never tired a doing anything near 10 Lbs though. I have always bought the small 2-3 lb vacuum packed version at Food Lion, and not a big one cut by a butcher fresh.
I have had it in Texas, and man is it amazing, but my family isn't a fan of the smoke flavor, so its always kept me from doing a big one.
Will a 10-12lb brisket fit on a medium sized BGE?

Thanks Mark, that was timely. I'll be doing one for next weekend. I've done some good butts, but this will be my first try on a brisket. Sounds like I don't need to worry about finding a rub, just use salt and pepper. Makes sense. I do beef ribs from time to time and that's all I use and they always turn out great.
That was a tough read. Been cooking briskets for a while and not very often have a bad one. Never heard of a propane smoker that runs on wood logs or brisket with a bone. For me the only seasoning I use is salt and pepper. Been asked many times what I use for seasoning and people don't believe me when I say salt and pepper. Went to Costco and found an 18lb prime brisket for $3.49 a pound. Sounds like a lot at the end but it's enough to feed a small army.
