Did a nice 11 pound Brisket this weekend

[scottsdalesmoke]

I tend to read much more than i post on here but this was too good to keep to myself.  We had a party for my grandfather's 85th birthday this weekend and i decided to do a brisket because everyone always loves it.  I started my fire at around 2am with a planned finish around 3-4pm, with about an hour added in for resting in the cooler.  I ended up finishing early and just held it in the cooler for a few extra hours (a tip i picked up from here) and when it came time to slice it up it ended up being perfect.  Enjoy

yo smoke , what did it weigh , what was the smoker temp , what was the internal temp when you pulled it and what was the total cook time ?  thanks

It weighed about 11.5 Lbs when it went in (i don't know the ending weight), the smoker temp was between 225-240, i used natural lump charcoal and Jack Daniels wood chips.  The Internal temp when i pulled it was right at 195.  Now here is where it gets weird the total cook time was only about 8 hours which surprised the hell out of me but it was done when it was done so i did not argue with it and it turned out perfect.
