That's right, doing my first "overnight" smoke.  I got the 22.5 WSM loaded up and will be bringing her up to temp here shortly.  Got a Brisket rubbed down in the fridge just begging to be smoked.  Wish me luck!

The WSM is a beast!  9 hrs later, after no attention overnight, she is still cruising along at 230 degrees.  I had my Maverick set up to beep if the temp got too high or low, and I didn't get any beeps, so I'd say it did pretty good.  I still haven't opened the lid; still have 14 more degrees to go.  I'll post a picture of the finished product as it comes off.
 
Just pulled the brisket off, seperated the point & flat, cut up my burnt ends, and letting the flat rest in the cooler for a bit.

I went ahead and got out the good camera for the slicing..  This turned out a lot better than I expected for my first time.

I fixed a plate for my neighbor since he had to suffer through the smell all night and all morning. :)

almost right at 12 hours total.  I put it on about 11:30 PM last night and I pulled it off at 12:20pm this afternoon.  I'm going to let it rest until about 2:00pm, then slice.  That bark was tasty!!!  I had a couple of the burnt ends while I am waiting for the flat to rest..  I tossed them in Jeff's sauce --awesome!

On this Brisket, I used a recipe I found in (Smoke & Spice, Jamison, Cheryl & Bill).  It primarily consisted of Paprika, black pepper, kosher salt, turbinado sugar, chili powder, garlic powder, onion powder, and cayenne powder.

It turned out really tasty!  There was a mop that was included in the recipe, but I didn't mop, mostly because I was asleep and didn't want to disturb the bark!
