Brisket has a special place in my cooking — it was the first meat I smoked years ago. Whether I inject it or simply use a dry rub, the results are consistently rewarding.

For the past year I’ve been using a Pit Boss Pro 1100, and cooking low and slow is my preferred method. I picked mine up at Lowe’s, and other Pit Boss models are available at major retailers and marketplaces. I appreciate the value they offer compared with other pellet grills.
