What is corned beef?
Corned Beef is a type of meat that is cured in a salt brine or mixture of spices.
It’s actually referred to as a corned brisket. This is because it is a beef brisket; however, then it goes through the brining process and is then called corned beef.
The corn is actually not corn in the meat, it’s simply the grains of salt that are used are called “corn”.

Tips for Making Pellet Grill Smoked Corned Beef:
This meat is best cooked low and slow, remember that with this recipe you will first let it sit in the fridge to rest. Make sure to account for this step in calculating your time.
Once you are done letting it soak, the beef will be combined with broth and smoked for about 4 hours.
It’s very important that after it smokes, the meat rest for about 30 minutes before serving. This allows for all the juices to fully flow throughout the cut of meat so that it’s very juicy and tender.
It’s also a good idea to either have a probe that is attached to your smoker or a meat thermometer to be sure the internal temperature comes to about 210*F before serving.

It’s good but instead of covering it in the smoker cover and put in the oven. Why waste pellets.
