Recipe Notes

In general, all braised and slow cooker recipes will need to cook this brisket for an addition 1-2 hours to achieve the desired results. The other thing you can do is cut their brisket in half before cooking it. As for smoking, follow the same general guidelines, but cook the brisket 5-6 hours longer to achieve the desired doneness.
