going to smoke a 15lb whole brisket for the first time, the local grocery store happened to have one out today.
I usually figure about 1.5 hours per lb for a flat cut @ 225 degrees, if the same holds true this one will take almost 24 hours to smoke which means I should start it around 3-5pm today I figure. You guys agree?
How should I go about running the MES overnight? Mine seems to run a long time if I load the hopper up with chips, should I just load a couple small chunks while I'm up and then load the thing up around midnight and let her go?
What do you guys use to mop with?
I hope this one comes out, my last flat cut was really dry. This is a lot of meat for one person
