Brisket - Round III

This is my third try at smoking brisket on my Yoder Smokers YS-640 pellet grill.  The last time was excellent, and this smoke was no exception.  This cook I tried John Henry's Texas Brisket rub.  The rub added some great flavor, but not quite as strong as the Plowboys Bovine Bold I typically use.

I fired up my YS-640 to 225 degrees at around 11:30pm and in no time I was off and smoking.  The Yoder held temps very well over night in the cold.  I foiled my brisket at 170 degrees internal.  The brisket was pulled and placed in the cooler to rest at 205 internal.  By lunch time the next day, we had a very moist and tender brisket.  Here's how it looked.


I'll be without my grill for a short while as the Yoder is going in for a "Pit Stop" to receive some upgrades.  Stay tuned and I'll be back for more in a few days!  Keep on smokin'!
