    Holy crap!  Thanks Red!  That was a lot of good info!  You replied while I was replying to some of the other comments. That's exactly where I separated.  Should have taken a picture of both after separating but was anxious to get them back in the smoker.

    First Brisket Successful But...

    Hey Red...There were two distinct parts to it separated by a thick line of fat so I suspect the flat might have been larger if it had been left whole.  In fact, it looked exactly like the picture below (thanks jirod for the link :) ) That Malcolm Reed video was one of the best I've seen...

    First Brisket - wish me luck

    Hey Richie... Thanks!  It was about 12 hours before I got it in the cooler to rest.  I ended up panning it with some beer and took a nap fully expecting to wake up and find that it had stalled but after an hour and a half my wife woke me up in a panic saying that the IT was up to 190* (from 160*...
