But have no fear: The art of smoking a brisket is as easy as painting by the numbers if you follow our simple steps using KingsfordÂ® Charcoal. 1  1. Prepping the brisket. Start with a brisket in the 10- to 12-pound range, which is just the right size to fit on the grill. 2  2. Prepping your cooker for smoking.
Cook the brisket with the grill covered, adding a few coals every hour if you are using a charcoal grill. Maintain the grill temperature at between 225 and 250 F. Check the temperature of the brisket after it has cooked for at least an hour per pound. For example, cook an 8-pound brisket for at least eight hours.
