Smoking the brisket for four hours and then finishing off in the oven for eight hours will produce a smokey and tender result. The total cook time should be around 12 hours. If you desire a more smokey result keep the brisket on the smoker for a longer period of time and adjust the oven time accordingly. I used a nine-pound brisket and seasoned with five teaspoons kosher salt. Increase the salt slightly if your brisket is heavier than nine pounds. 9 to 12 lb brisket water 5 teaspoons kosher salt black pepper, to taste (be generous) Trim excess from the brisket as needed, to ensure an even layer of fat, a quarter to half-inch thick. Add a small layer of water to both sides of the brisket. The water acts as seasoning “glue,” as it will help the salt and pepper stick to the brisket. Evenly season the brisket on all sides with the salt and pepper. Prepare the grill for smoking, using your preferred smoking wood, and heat to 235 degrees Fahrenheit.  Place the brisket onto the smoker and close the lid. Smoke for 4 hours. Remove from the smoker and wrap in butcher paper. Place onto a rimmed sheet pan and place into a 235 degree oven. Cook for 8 hours or until the brisket reaches an internal temperature of 200 degrees. Unwrap the brisket, slice and serve. - [Tweet](https://twitter.com/share) Topics: [A Pleasant Little Kitchen](https://blog.unitedsupermarkets.com/tag/a-pleasant-little-kitchen) ### Recent Posts ### Main Categories - [A Pleasant Little Kitchen (155)](https://blog.unitedsupermarkets.com/tag/a-pleasant-little-kitchen) - [Happy and Nourished (102)](https://blog.unitedsupermarkets.com/tag/happy-and-nourished) - [Eat Well Live Well (26)](https://blog.unitedsupermarkets.com/tag/eat-well-live-well) - [Chef's Counter (14)](https://blog.unitedsupermarkets.com/tag/chefs-counter) - [Day of the Dead, Día de los Muertos (8)](https://blog.unitedsupermarkets.com/tag/day-of-the-dead-día-de-los-muertos) - [Easter (7)](https://blog.unitedsupermarkets.com/tag/easter) - [Hatch Chile Season (6)](https://blog.unitedsupermarkets.com/tag/hatch-chile-season) - [Valentine's Day (6)](https://blog.unitedsupermarkets.com/tag/valentines-day) - [Mothers Day (5)](https://blog.unitedsupermarkets.com/tag/mothers-day) - [Hispanic Heritage Month (4)](https://blog.unitedsupermarkets.com/tag/hispanic-heritage-month) - [Back To School (2)](https://blog.unitedsupermarkets.com/tag/back-to-school) - [Cinco De Mayo (2)](https://blog.unitedsupermarkets.com/tag/cinco-de-mayo) - [Brunch (1)](https://blog.unitedsupermarkets.com/tag/brunch) - [floral (1)](https://blog.unitedsupermarkets.com/tag/floral) - [salad (1)](https://blog.unitedsupermarkets.com/tag/salad) - [summer (1)](https://blog.unitedsupermarkets.com/tag/summer) - [vegetables (1)](https://blog.unitedsupermarkets.com/tag/vegetables) [See all](https://blog.unitedsupermarkets.com/easy-smoked-brisket#) ![United Supermarkets](https://blog.unitedsupermarkets.com/hubfs/United%20Supermarkets%20Blog%202019/USIcon.png) ### Company Information - [About The United Family](https://www.theunitedfamily.com/) - [Careers](https://www.theunitedfamily.com/careers/) - [Commitment to Community](https://www.theunitedfamily.com/donations/) - [Sustainability Promise](https://www.theunitedfamily.com/sustainability/%20target=) - [Market Street](https://www.marketstreetunited.com/) - [Amigos](https://www.amigosunited.com/) - [Albertsons Market](https://www.albertsonsmarket.com) ### Guest Services - [Shop Online](http://www.unitedsupermarkets.com/rs/shoponline/) - [Order Gift Cards](https://www.unitedsupermarkets.com/rs/giftcards) - [Order Flowers](https://www.marketstreetflowers.com/) - [Take Our Survey](https://www.unitedsupermarkets.com/survey) - [Refill/Transfer Prescriptions](https://ecom.nhin.com/nhin/servlet/EpsEntry?CHAIN_ID=UNITED&STORE_ID=ALL&INIT=YES) - [Contact Us](https://www.unitedsupermarkets.com/page/contact) ### Resources - [Nutritional Info](https://www.theunitedfamily.com/nutrition/) - [Online Shopping FAQs](https://www.theunitedfamily.com/contact-us/faqs/#shopping) - [Email Online Shopping Support](https://www.safeway.com/contactus/contact-us-form/groceryDelivery/?bannerId=unitedsupermarkets) - [Rewards Program](https://www.unitedsupermarkets.com/page/savings/rewards) - [Email Rewards Support](https://www.safeway.com/contactus/contact-us-form/commentsAndQuestions/accountUpdate?bannerId=unitedsupermarkets) - [Product Recalls](https://www.theunitedfamily.com/recalls/) - [Coupon Policy](https://www.theunitedfamily.com/coupon-policy/) - [Privacy Policy](https://www.theunitedfamily.com/privacy-policy/) - [Terms & Conditions](https://www.theunitedfamily.com/terms-conditions/) [![](https://blog.unitedsupermarkets.com/hubfs/United%20Supermarkets%20Blog%202019/Insta.png)](https://blog.unitedsupermarkets.com/easy-smoked-brisket#) [![](https://blog.unitedsupermarkets.com/hubfs/United%20Supermarkets%20Blog%202019/Facebook.png)](https://blog.unitedsupermarkets.com/easy-smoked-brisket#) [![](https://blog.unitedsupermarkets.com/hubfs/United%20Supermarkets%20Blog%202019/Twitter.png)](https://blog.unitedsupermarkets.com/easy-smoked-brisket#) [![](https://blog.unitedsupermarkets.com/hubfs/United%20Supermarkets%20Blog%202019/Pinterest.png)](https://blog.unitedsupermarkets.com/easy-smoked-brisket#) Download Our Rewards App ![](https://blog.unitedsupermarkets.com/hubfs/Market%20Street%20Blog%202019/GooglePlay.png) ![](https://blog.unitedsupermarkets.com/hubfs/Market%20Street%20Blog%202019/AppStore.png)
