Thinking about experimenting with Corn on the Cob. Haven't tried it before.

I've done thousands of corn on the cob. Used to be on the BBQ circuit a few years ago, and peoples choice was always tough, but the corn usually worked out pretty well.

We soaked it in water for 30 mins, using only corn that still had a tight husk.
Put it in lots of smoke at 250 degrees for 45 minutes.
When its taken out, the husks and silks just fall off. The subtle smoke flavor after dipping in melted butter was awesome. :thumb:
We would cut it into 2" lengths and keep it in hot butter. When the people would come for a sample, they would just walk off, and in about 10 feet they would turn around and ask how in the heck we made that.

Love that smoked flavor,never had much luck in getting a tender brisket.Any secrets.

The longer I cook it sealed in foil, the more tender is becomes.

This particular batch smoked for 5 hours at 220, then 2 hours in foil. It probably would have been even better if i would have cooked it sealed for another hour or two.


Cook it too long and it will fall apart. Still good tasting, but not as desirable.

Around 1.5 hrs per lb while keeping the temp between 225 and 235 works for me. I don't like wrapping mine simply because the bark is my favorite part. Impossible to have a firm bark if you wrap it while still on the smoker.

I get mine to an internal temp of 185-190, take it off the smoker and wrap in in Saran wrap and put it in a cooler for 2-3 hours.

Always juicy, always tender and the bark is just right.

I learned this method from one of the cooks at Coopers, in Llano TX. They cook them at more of a high heat, but this guy used to hunt with me and this is how he always did it at the lease.
