Brisket number 2

[oddegan]

Trying brisket number 2 in the mes30. Just a liberal coating of Cavenders Greek seasoning.

I want to see how this ends!

1st time around I went for an IT of 190 today I'll start checking with a skewer for tenderness at 200.

Just slid a pan of baked beans onto the rack underneath to catch some of the drippings. A chunk of fat from the meat fell off so that got added to it.

These ought to go well with the brisket. My IT is up to 195. Starting to get close.

Cool. Good luck. 

FWIW, I often have to take briskets well over 200 to get the desired tenderness. 207* or more in some cases. Depends on the brisket. Don't be afraid to ignore the thermometer and cook it until a skinny probe or toothpick slides in the flat with ease.

The temp is just going to be a starting point. I'll probe. I cooked to temp last time and it was just a little tough.
