Whats the best way to cook a Brisket on a Weber?

Ive made smoked brisket in one of those large ceramic quot;green eggquot; smokers before at a friends house, but i just bought a new Weber yesterday and thats the closest i have to a smoker, and so i was wondering if anyone knew of any good ways to cook a brisket inderectly on a Charcoal grill.i was thinking maybe cooking it in an aluminum pan for maybe 6 hours and keep basting it for the first few hours or something, but i wasnt sure if that would work well or not since a weber gets much more hotter then an offset smoker.thanx in advance

Answer:

just do it in the oven if you don't have a smokerthe direct heat of the charcoal will be too hotLay out some big wide Foil, drench the brisket in Worcestershire sauce, put the run on, wrap it up as tight as I canPlace it in a disposable or size enough broiling pan, into the fridge for 24 hours Set the oven to 225-250, ( I don't have a smoker), it cooks for 10-12 hoursnever touch it Pull it out, clip the corner off the foil, pour all those wonderful juices into a bowlSkim off the fat from the top and you have got the best drippin dipping sauce you can imagineI always have a container along side the meat, It's amazing! If you have canned gravy for taters and such, put 3-4 spoon fulls into it, wakes up pre made gravy like WOW!!! Of course you can make it from scratch and it's even better I buy as large a brisket that looks pretty good, generally around 14-15 lbs, end up trimming off 4 in fat before cooking.
