Ingredients You'll Need

To get started on your Hot and Fast Smoked Beef Brisket, you’ll need the following:

• 1 whole beef brisket (5-10 pounds)
• Salt and black pepper (to taste)
• Your favorite barbecue rub
• Wood chunks (oak or hickory are recommended for the best smoke flavor)
• Optional: garlic powder, onion powder, and smoked paprika for additional seasoning

Preparation Steps

Getting your brisket ready is simpler than you’d think. Follow these steps for a successful cook:

1. Trim the Brisket: Start by trimming excess fat from your beef brisket, leaving about ¼ inch to retain moisture during cooking.
2. Season Generously: Season your brisket liberally with salt, black pepper, and any additional spices of your choice. Let it sit for at least an hour to absorb the flavors.
3. Prepare Your UDS: Preheat your Ugly Drum Smoker to around 300°F (150°C). Add your wood chunks to create a rich smoke flavor.
4. Smoke the Brisket: Place the brisket in the smoker fat-side up. Close the lid and maintain the temperature. The goal is to smoke until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (73.9°C).
5. Wrap in Foil: Once reached, wrap the brisket in butcher paper or aluminum foil and return it to the smoker. Cook until it reaches 195°F (90.5°C) for optimum tenderness.
6. Rest the Meat: Allow your smoked brisket to rest for at least 30 minutes before slicing—we know it's hard to wait, but it’s essential for the juiciness!

Tips for the Best Results

Follow these tips to ensure your hot and fast smoked beef brisket turns out spectacular:

• Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature accurately—this is your best ally in achieving the right doneness.
• Feel free to experiment with your favorite rubs and marinades—personalize it to suit your taste!

• Choose quality meat: Well-marbled brisket results in a more flavorful and juicy end product.
