What should I spritz my brisket with?
Chef's answer
Once you put the rubbed brisket on your 225F-degree smoker, spritz it with apple cider vinegar every couple hours. When it reaches about 165F degrees and has a beautiful mahogany bark, spritz it some more and wrap it tightly in two layers of foil or peach paper..

I don't always spritz but when I do it is with a Beer and Hot Sauce mixture. Not a big fan of Worchestshire or soy. A spritz flavor is more noticeable on small cuts of meat. A brisket takes on a lot of smoke.
