Directions
Preheat your Yoder Smokers YS640s Pellet Grill to 300ºF, set up for smoking/indirect cooking. Also, fill an A-MAZE-N Tube Smoker with hickory pellets and place on the main cooking grate, to the left side of the grill.
Trim excess/hard fat from the surface of the brisket flat. Leave about 1/4” layer soft fat behind. Score the fat with a sharp knife, about 1/4” deep in a crosshatch pattern.
Combine the ingredients for the injection in a marinade shaker. Shake well to combine. Reserve 1/4 cup of the injection to add to the wrap later. Working in a grid pattern, inject the remaining liquid into the brisket flat using a pistol grip injector.
- Using paper towels, remove the excess injection liquid from the surface of the brisket. Spread a thin layer of miso across the surface of the meat.
- Mix the Plowboys BBQ Bovine Bold and celery seed. Season the brisket with the mixture. Let set up until the surface appears wet.
- Transfer to the smoker. Cook until the surface is a deep mahogany brown color and the internal temperature reaches 160ºF, about 4 hours.
- Remove the flat from the grill. Place it on top of two sheets of heavy-duty foil. Turn up the edges of the foil and add the reserved injection liquid. Wrap tightly in the foil. Return to the grill.
- Continue cooking the brisket until probe tender, about 2 more hours. The internal temperature should be around 205ºF-210ºF. Remove from the grill.
- Rest the brisket for 30-45 minutes before slicing, wrapped tight in foil.
