Smoked Bourbon Marinated Brisket #brisket Marinating brisket is not traditional, but the result was absolutely amazing. This process works particularly well if you use a pellet smoker, as developing bark can be more difficult. The sugars and flavors on the surface start to caramelize for an incredible final product. Marinade: 1/2 cup Smoked Bourbon 1/2 cup maple syrup 1/2 cup soy sauce 1/2 cup Dijon mustard 2T Worcestershire 4 cloves chopped garlic 2 chopped chipotle peppers in adobo
