Brisket is a tough cut of meat to start out on. I have an electric smoker like the one you have pictured, but it is a different brand. I tried doing brisket in it for my first attempt, and let's just say yours looks like it turned out a LOT better than mine did. Brisket just required more time in the smoker at a lower temp than I was willing to give it for the first time.

Needless to say, I was discouraged, but not ready to give up, I tried some babyback ribs the next time with much better results. Chicken is also more forgiving. The ribs needed about 5-6 hrs at around 200 for my best results. Keep at it; you'll find what it takes to make it work. :nod:

My wife has done ribs, brisket, pork shoulder and brats on our Brinkman. The brats have to come out much sooner than the rest, but it's all good. Ribs are some of the best I've ever eaten.
