brisket is by far the hardest thing to smoke.

smoking meats is all about very slowly cooking meats exactly to the point that they start to break down and fall apart, but before you dry them out too much. brisket's "tender point" is the hardest to hit.

Halibut is by far the best fish to smoke. Eel is also amazing. Portabella mushrooms are great.

Oh yeah! I forgot about mushrooms. I normally throw them on top of a number of different things to act as a cover and trap moisture. There are a number of veggies that will smoke well -- I mentioned Corn and Potatoes from the clambake above, Artichokes, Onions, Jicama, Peppers of almost any kind, same with Squash.

Oh - and Pineapple is tasty as hell.
