So my brisket peaked at 194. I did the Texas crutch. Before taking it off I opened to take temp again. Dropped to 189, 181 and now it is 178. Kettle temp is probably 225. Oven? Let it ride a while longer? Get my coals and temp up??
Kettleman, by now you've gotten your Smoke flavor and 'Wrapped' (a shame ), so I'd say ... Toss her in a 225° oven with the probe - in and let it go.... You'll lose Bark, however it will be tender.
-HOWEVER-
I would think it is at a good 'sliceable; temp. now...place in some towels and in a cooler the rest. The 'Point' can be R&R / S &S (Removed & Rubbed / Sauced & Smoked) again ,
Thanks! I wrapped it again in foil (tight). Have it resting in coller with a towel. Will check in awhile and if I need to pop in oven will do it. I think I have first brisket jitters.
