I may have missed it, but what was the temp you cooked at?  I really want to give that a try one day when I have plenty of time.  

Edit, nevermind.  I just did not read far enough down on your initial post.   My bad.

This Brisket was really good!

It took about 10 hours to get an IT of 205 with the smoker heat going between approx 215 - 230

I did about 4 probes at the end and all reads were a little different +\- 5 or so degrees between probes, DONT let that bother you.

As long as you are close take it off foil and wrap in towels and sit somewhere warm for att least an hour. I put mine in a cooler.

I have new found Brisket confidence after this smoke.
 
Looks good I did my first brisket a few weeks ago and foiled it a Little to soon. my next one will be done without the foil like you did here.

Good job

Thanks Lenny,

Let me know how it goes and post some pics.

I know a lot of us (including myself until recently) get nervous doing Briskets. But the more we all share and troubleshoot , the more Briskets there will be to keep the world a happy place.
 
Not as "crackly" as I like, it was more like Jerky consistency.

I am going to try to open it up on the temp at the end of the smoke next time.

My best guess would be to move into a 300 -350 range when IT is approx. 190 and carry that temp to you hit a IT of 205, that should dry the bark and get it nice and thick.

Does anyone have a good way to create a healthy bark on a Brisket over a 10 -12 hr low and slow smoke?
 
Looks great! You may want to invest in a good knife for slicing it will be much easier. If you rest your brisket in foil it basically steams your bark, try using something like worchestshire to help the rub hold on better and let it cool a bit before wrapping 5-10 min is what I do.I use a little turbinado sugar in the rub as well which I think helps.
 
Sugar is a good idea for creating a crispy bark I will try it.

I will also wait to wrap at the end to avoid the possibility of ""steaming" the bark.

Thanks for the good ideas.
