FAQ – Arby’s Smokehouse Brisket
How long does it take to smoke a brisket?
Smoking a brisket typically takes 1 to 1.5 hours per pound at 225°F (107°C). For a 12-pound brisket, expect 12-18 hours of cooking time.
What’s the best wood for smoking brisket?
Oak is the most popular choice, but hickory, mesquite, and fruit woods like apple or cherry are also excellent options. Each imparts a different flavor profile.
How do I know when my brisket is done?
The internal temperature should reach 195-205°F (90-96°C). The meat should also feel tender when probed with a thermometer, offering little resistance.
Should I wrap my brisket during smoking?
Many pitmasters wrap their brisket in butcher paper or foil when it reaches an internal temperature of 165-170°F (74-77°C). This technique, known as the “Texas Crutch,” can help push through the stall and retain moisture.
How long should I let the brisket rest after smoking?
Allow the brisket to rest for at least 1 hour, but preferably 2-4 hours. This lets the juices redistribute throughout the meat, ensuring a moist and flavorful result.
