What happens after the stall? I was hoping for a Qview for breakfast!
I'm just hoping for breakfast!

189*F IT. I went ahead and foiled it @ 175 and bumped up my temp to 265.

Sat at 147-149 for 4 hours!

-Qview to come when finished. Don't want to mess around here

Doh, fwiw, foil and crank up the temp when it hits the stall, it helps to power through it.  
 
Successful first packer under the belt! Got a total of about 2 hours of sleep and was woken up twice by my Maverick 733 when a good blizzard rolled in at 4am, but it was all worth it. Cut it a little close on time, but it all worked out in the end.

Foiling hurt my bark a bit, but was needed in order to finish on time.

9:30am: Final IT was 203*F when toothpick test passed to the best of my knowledge. Nice smoke ring on the point, but not much on the flat.

Great learning experience this was.

QView!

Removed from foil, separated point from flat. While flat was laid to rest back in foil in the cooler, I cubed up the point.


Placed drippings from foil in the freezer for a bit to harden the fat. Skimmed it out and added to a fresh pot of Jeff's sauce.


Tossed cubes in a 50/50ish mix of Jeff's sauce and Sweet Baby Rays. Then sprinked with Jeff's rub. Added some lump and a hickory chunk to the WSM and dialed in to 250*F and dumped these bad boys in there for 1.5 hours (these were AWESOME

).


12:30 arrival: Removed flat from cooler after a 3 hour rest. (still nice and hot). Damn near fell apart when removing from foil.


Sliced up (CAREFULLY), served with the option of Jeff's sauce w/ foil drippings for dipping. (Made this in case it turned out dry. It did not.

That is pretty much it. I will be sleeping well tonight.

Thanks folks!

DukeBurger, where do I begin? You have done an awesome job with this brisket. I have thoroughly enjoyed watching its creation from start to finish. You have definitely earned yourself some points and a well deserved sleep. Happy Easter my friend.
