Brisket and beer?
I, like many of you guys seem to do, pull my brisket off at 160 or so then add 1/2 cup of beef broth (or whatever) then wrap in foil and finish cooking. My question is have you guys tried replacing broth with a dark beer?

I don't do much brisket but I do like my beer butted birds (scheduled for Tomorrow) and I've used Brew in my Finishing and Basting Sauces with decent results. Gonna be interesting to see what the Brisket Mob says about this. Good Luck and Happy Cooking

My Dad used to baste his brisket with a beer, garlic, onion, and a few other things I can't remember, basting sauce. Then he'd add some of it when he wrapped it. It was awesome!

That sounds pretty good! I usually inject mine with a little beef broth a few hours before I cook it and use Fiesta brand brisket rub with freshly chopped garlic. Tonight I injected the brisket with a scotch style ale beer. It's like a citrus style guiness, I also rubbed it with the same rub and garlic. I finished up my smoker modification a little while ago. It's pretty much a uds. Hoping things turn out good for tomorrow. Starting to cook at 3:00a.m.

No bueno for BBQ! I wrap in Butcher paper I add nothing, if I want pot roast I'd cook it in the oven and braise it in stock.
Never met a cow I didn't like with a little salt and pepper.

Ding, ding, ding, we have a winner. The taste difference is significant.
