Lean and Mean Barbecued Brisket

Brisket, slow cooked over wood takes 15-20 hours. There are grillmasters who pride themselves on how they make brisket. We wanted a version we could make at home, on our Weber, that would come close to the flavor of oak wood, with those beautiful red smoke rings. We adapted this recipe from Steve Raichlen's "How to Grill" book which has become our grilling bible. I also made a beer-based mopping sauce and BBQ sauce that has a nice balance of savory and sweet. This took about three hours to make, but it sure was good!
