    smoking without wood

    my landlord has complained about my smoker, i was wondering if i would still get somewhat of a smoky flavour just using lump charcoal and no wood at all in attempt to keep the smoke down. and lets say if i minion method lump will it still generate a lot of smoke?

    Brisket rubbery at 200

    I just smoked a brisket till internal temp of 200 took the temp in a bunch of place so it was for sure 200 let it rest for an hour and bit into it and it was impossible to eat. I checked with 2 thermometers my maverick and my thermapop. Both read 200 so it's not a faulty thermometer

    Brisket to serve at 6:00pm

    I just took my brisket off the smoker at 11:30am foiled it and put in my cooler. To serve people at 6 what's the best tact? Should I just leave it in the cooler till 6?
