Michael Symon fires up his smoker and firepit to make some of his Dad's and Pap's favorite dishes. He starts with a lesson on how to create the perfect smoked brisket with his Pastrami Rubbed Brisket. But smoking a brisket takes time, so while Michael waits, he takes care of some chores and then whips up his Pap's favorite Rye Spaetzle and his Dad's favorite Grilled Cabbage. Michael's wife, Liz, makes several rounds of her unique take on a Summer Shandy.
