+1 to what chadrog just said.
Properly SMOKED Brisket is a culinary masterpiece.
'corning' it just RUINS a perfectly good brisket.

That DOES sound better! I wish I had the time and the equipment for smoking meats at home.

I think I'm gonna pick up a rack of wet-style baby-back ribs and a pound of brisket from my favorite local BBQ joint for dinner.
My girlfriend enjoys that almost as much as I do.
Corn Bread, Potato Salad, Baked Beans, and Smoked Ham Mac-n-Cheez will be the side dishes.

Yep, you're doing it WRONG...

Shouldn't have blood, I agree, but a properly done MEDIUM steak, while pink, should have the juices run clear... that's what you want.

The more you overdo the steak past medium, the more flavor and texture you lose... took me years to learn that after the faulty upbringing I got from my uncultured parents...

Time is the biggest thing, it's an all day event - and that's not counting the several days of rubbing/marinating prior. After all, it's by no means a great cut. On the plus side, you get this - yeahhhhhhh.

Ditto for boiling it. :-( A late friend of mine, whose mother's side of the family was Russian, had an aunt who boiled everything; as Gary once said, "I swear she boiled her toast!" On one occasion his family had dinner at her home, and he was dismayed that she had boiled a fine cut of beef brisket, which "shimmied back and forth on its serving plate" whenever anyone just moved the plate to cut a slice for himself or herself. (Some years earlier when he had visited her for a few days, he cooked a baked potato there because her boiled ones just couldn't compare, and he said that to her, being from "the old country," it was a complete novelty!)
