I have a family get together tomorrow and they requested a brisket. I went to the store and only saw one left. After some trimming it's about 18 pounds! Let the fun begin

had to put a little foil on the ends where it bumped the sides of the smoker but wanted to keep it whole

Is that a drum? Or Weber S.M 18.5? Good luck [emoji]128077[/emoji]. I would fix whatever I wanted for dinner and they eat that. [emoji]128521[/emoji]

It's a drum. I'm sure the brisket will fit in a few hours. I love a good long low and slow brisket. Think it should be done in a day or two

getting ready for the old FTC treatment it finally shrunk. It was at 190 hadn't lost an inch then went through a late stall and shrunk up like normal tender at 210.
