Temperature of smoker, the thickness of the meat, and fat content all play a part in cooking time. On average, you can plan on a cooking time of 1 hour per pound at 250° F.
Cook the brisket for 1 to 1.5 hours per pound, at a temperature between 200 and 250 degrees, adding both dry and soaked wood chips as necessary to keep the temperature consistent.
In a spray bottle, combine apple juice and apple cider vinegar. The acidity of the spary helps tendernerize the meat and adds to the flavor. Spray the brisket each time you refresh the wood.

Mishima Reserve’s herds consist of Japanese-heritage, 100% Kuroge Washu bulls bred with American cows, all born and raised in the U.S. They cross these breeds to take advantage of their individual characteristics: the classic beefiness of American cows, and the tender, rich, and healthier qualities of the Wagyu.
Through a partnership with Eden Reforestation Projects, Mishima Reserve offsets their animals’ carbon emissions by planting millions of mangrove trees in Madagascar and Haiti. Mangrove trees sequester up to three times more carbon than most other trees. Over the lifetime of the mangrove trees' lifetime, they will sequester significantly more carbon than Mishima Reserve is producing. To date, Mishima Reserve has planted more than 3 million trees.
Mishima Reserve cattle are long-fed a carefully managed diet of grasses and grains and raised up to a year longer than the American standard. By allowing the animals to gain weight slowly, Mishima Reserve maximizes development of the superior characteristics of the prized wagyu breed. In fact, it's during that extended year that some of the most important qualities of wagyu begin to develop, including the marbling. This last stage is also when nature works its magic, transforming the composition of the fats themselves by increasing the ratio of unsaturated fats and the omega-3 and omega-6 linoleic acids present in the meat.
Mishima Reserve controls every aspect of their cattle’s development to ensure that their customers get the best beef possible. Mishima Reserve’s ranching partners work with a set of strict protocols to protect the health and wellbeing of the animals. They also take the time in transitioning the calves from newborn to independence, minimizing stress and directly effecting the cattle’s health, and quality of beef. In addition, Mishima Reserve has a zero-tolerance policy for added hormones, and guarantees the beef is 100% clear of any trace of antibiotics.
