Default Re: Smoked Brisket

Almost forgot, I said I'm using a Weber Kettle, not a smoker, but it works if you're patient.

I'm intersted in getting a real smoker, but I'm leary of the cheapo models. I've read that hot fires with wood, which is what should be used in them, can burn through the thin firebox. Mesquite is one that can cause it.

Anyone have advice on a smoker? If you have one of the less expensive, Home Depot types, how's it working? Maybe I should just get one of those to work with for now and see how it goes.
