     We first enjoyed smoked brisket when we lived 
    in Houston, Texas.  Since then, it has become a favorite for large 
    gatherings.   |

    Preparation Notes | 
	 
  
	| 1 - 3  | 
	Large whole 
    Beef Briskets | 
	
    -   Freeze briskets solid
 
    -   The night before using, rub frozen briskets 
    generously with lemon pepper
 
    -   Place in trash bags inside a cooler. (trash bags 
    keep the cooler cleaner and keep the marinade with the meat.
 
    -   Poor more lemon pepper on top and tie bag shut. 
    Meat will remain frozen in cooler with only the edges defrosting
 
    -   Six hours (time may vary with outside temperature 
    and type of smoker) before you want to serve the meat, sear the frozen meat 
    on the outside on a very hot grill for a few minutes so that the outside is 
    black but not long enough to cook the meat inside.
 
    -  Place in smoker grill with charcoal and wood chips 
    (hickory, mesquite or other favorite mix) maintaining heat around 200 - 225 
    degrees.  Some smokers have water pans which will keep the meat more 
    moist and help regulate the heat.  Too hot of a heat will dry out the 
    meat.
 
    -  Meat thermometer should read beef rare to medium 
    when it is finished.
 
    -  Slice thin, use in sandwiches or simply on the 
    plate.  Serve with your favorite barbeque sauce heated.  Great for 
    left-overs too.
