4lb flat brisket

[joep1999]

Just curious how long I should smoke this, I know most say 2 hours per pond @225. I'm using a smoke hollow propane dual burner smoker. I'm also using a homemade dry rub.

You mean how long to apply smoke? Or how many hours to keep it at 225?

How long at 225, I'll smoke till I wrap it

Oh.. lol when center inside is at 160 to 170 ..then to 200 to 205 degrees internal temp. with foil, and poke through it in a few places with a small skewer or meat thermometer probe and see if it goes in real easy and no give hardly. Then it's done and can rest a half hour or more

I use these .. one or the other to check temps and probe the softness of the meat

Don't worry about time per lb on that brisket. It's gonna be faster because it's not that thick like a whole one. And it may cook in one hour per pound.

In the past I have waited till 180 to pull it then foil wrap it till 205 then rest for an hour. I have an Oregon probe I use with the display mounted outside the smoker.

Cool..well the flat is more delicate and may dry out a bit if cooked alone to that temp.. maybe not.. You could try 165 and wrap it.. put some beef broth in there.. a ,Table spoon or 3.. freeze extra beef broth in the ice cube tray and have beef cubes for whatever you want later.

Normally I do fattys.. everyone loves them, Lol. I do a diced check breast with cheese, onions, peppers. That's the favorite around here.

Nice. I never did a fatty. Will try it sometime soon.

I did a 3 lb flat a few weeks ago. It was done in about 2 hours. I pulled it at 200 and let it rest for a couple hours. Great flavour on it, but it was fairly dry. I didn't wrap it though, which is realize now was my downfall.
