First Brisket

[chrisjl3]

I'm doing my first brisket today. I really appreciate all of the great advice found here! I'm using yellow mustard and Jeff's rub with some hickory and apple wood. Got the 9 and a half pounder(that's more then one of our dogs weighs) on at 5:45 AM.

Thanks again to all for sharing

At first I thought the temp was rising to quickly then it slowed down, nine hours into it and the brisket is at 168, almost time to foil.
