So the finished results on the brisket are in ... Total cook time 11hrs,45 min.... Cooked at an avg temp of about 240-245... So I tried Aaron Franklins butcher wrap method I have to say its pretty good !! I do want to use a heaveyier smoke next time - mabe a hicory-pecan mix ... So here is the money shot
