Looks great, I agree a chuck is not brisket. I went down the same rabbit hole with one. They are good smoked and I do the same you did, pull them for sandwiches,
I did, When I first dabbled in smoking I used to use wood chips and a foil pack, now I'll put a small split on the flaforizor bars. It works pretty good when I don't have time to fire up the kettle or smoker
Set up the gasser with a piece of oak and maple for indirect. Ran about 250 till IT of 120. Let it rest then ranked up the heat for a sear
Got a good sear let it rest again.
Money shot
The Brazos has a firebox with a door on top and a grate for grilling, some call it a cowboy firebox. I have a Pecos and use the firebox mainly for searing, it's not big enough for alot, you can do a couple of steaks or burgers. Like already said I wouldn't use the cook chamber for grilling.
Great writeup, You make it look easy. I've been a little hesatant to jump into a brisket. Got one in the freezer I may have to go ahead and take the plunge.
I'm with @smokerjim cook on it a couple of times and see how it goes. You don't want to waste your time or money on mods you don't know if they are affective or not. Any offset will take time to figure out.
I wouldn't pass those by, those are some good lookin ribs. I agree with spritzing that much. I have an old country pecos, it likes splits about the size of a 16oz beer can. Don't freak over the temp swings, you can get 50 degree swings in either direction with the OC.
