Big brisket smoke this weekend

[jspryor]

I picked up a case of packer briskets (6 of them) from Sam's Club tonight and also mixed up a 3x batch of Jeff's rub.  Smoking all the meet on Saturday for my uncle's fly-tying expo next weekend. 

Planning to smoke until ~150 and then foil and cook until 200-205.

This is the first time I have done pulled brisket.  I have done more than this in pork but never brisket so kind of nervous!!!

I will try to provide Q-view along the way.  Any advice would be appreciated.

Good luck with the brisket. I personally would take it to 160 - 165 before foiling

I agree with scar, foil at 165. I also prefer my brisket sliced across the grain instead of pulled, since they are packers you could pull the point & slice the flat, that way people would have a choice.
