Foil Boat Brisket
Brisket is a cut of beef that requires low and slow cooking to make it tender. Traditionally, it can be slow cooked in the oven or boiled with vegetables and spices. For a classic BBQ, a simple rub of salt and pepper is enough. When smoking, it's recommended to keep the fat cap on, whether fat cap up or down depends on the smoker. The foil boat brisket method, created by Bradley Robinson, involves crumpling foil around the brisket, leaving the top side exposed. The fat renders and collects in the foil boat, keeping the bottom side moist. This method is a game-changer for achieving a juicy and succulent brisket.
