    Brisket on MES 30 time

    Sorry mine is also the mes 40, but yes that is what I struggle with, the electrics seem to take so much longer than 50ish minutes per lb.....seems closer to 1.5 for me at 225....I think I just need to be of the mindset if it's done early I can always rest longer vs. Trying to rush the cook...

    Brisket on MES 30 time

    And that seems to be my experience too, I have only done a few and it always seems to take more than 1hr/lb.....was hoping someone with the same setup could give me an idea or maybe I just need to run it closer to 250 this time

    Brisket on MES 30 time

    A few questions for my 15 lb brisket on mes 30: 1. What is a general rule of thumb for per lb time if cooking at 225 unwrapped? 2. What shelf would you put it on low middle high? 3. I'd like to try a longer rest this time....6 plus hours, what temp does it need to cool to, to stop cooking?

    Meat your maker brand grinder
