When Abdur-Rahim returned to Wilmington from Chicago in 1977, one of the first things she wanted to do was visit Garrettâs home at 227 Shipley Street. She was too late. âI went to that spot and it wasnât there,â she said.
To achieve the best results, I cook the beef brisket at 225 degrees for about 1 hour and 15 minutes per pound. The time per pound is strictly a guide and cooking times wil actually vary.
Once your smoker is maintaining 200 degrees, you are ready to place the brisket in the smoker. Smoke the Brisket. Place the brisket directly on the smoker grate with the fat side down. Maintain 200 degrees F throughout and keep the smoke going for at least 6 hours if you are not using a stick burner.nce your smoker is maintaining 200 degrees, you are ready to place the brisket in the smoker.
