Title: What flavor for brisket?
Post by: jbuzzerd on October 11, 2012, 10:57:55 AM

I was surfing the net this morning and saw several recipe places suggest to not use mesquite for brisket. Not sure why. I've only done two briskets before and I'm pretty sure I used mesquite both times and was happy with the result, but I'm open for other ideas.

Thoughts?

Suggestions?

Probably not mesquite fans. I say use what you like or in my case, whatever I have on hand ;D

I use mesquite sometimes or like Mike whatever I have on hand, hickory is pretty popular with brisket. Mixing up wood flavours is fine also, just experiment.

Yeah, in my limited smoking career I've done a chicken, several butts, a couple briskets and some ribs. So far I'm not sure if my pallet can tell the difference in what kind of smoke I use.
