INSTRUCTIONS

This is a perfect way to spend a day, and makes a meal fit for a king!
It really takes a smoker to make this successfully, but creative folks can
use whatever's handy.
Select a good quality beef brisket.  Trim off excess fat and store in
refrigerator until ready to barbecue.
If you wish, marinade the meat for additional flavor or tenderness. A good
marinade can consist of water, Worcestershire Sauce, Soy Sauce, pepper,
lime or lemon juice - whatever you like! (No Salt, though)
Start 8 lbs. of the charcoal and allow coals to develop gray ash over all
before beginning to cook. Reserve the remaining 2 lbs. for adding when
needed later. Add wood that has been soaking in water for an hour or so.
Cook the meat on a grate approx. 8 inches over the coals, adding charcoal
and wood to fire as needed.  It isn't necessary to keep a heavy smoke at
all times, just 1/2 of the cooking time. Use a meat thermometer to
determine doneness of meat to your preference.  If the smoker has an
indicator for temperature, a low heat is fine. Coals and wood tend to burn
at lower temperatures when enclosed in a smoker.
While cooking, it is essential to baste often with the basting sauce.
Usually every 10 minutes or even less will ensure a juicy and delicious
brisket.
If basting with another sauce, remember that anything containing sugar or
tomato will burn, leaving a scorched flavor. That's especially true with
meats cooked over long periods of time.
Serve with the warmed barbecue sauce and breads, beans, salad or
potatoes.
Enjoy!    Jeff Duke
