Quicker Smoked Brisket

"This is more of a method than a recipe.You can use your favorite rub and sauce and make it your own. America's Test Kitchen devised this method to shorten the usual 12 hour slow smoking process. You use the grill for 2 hours and finish in the oven. The results were impressive. My family loved it."
