egg almost up to temp.

heavy smoke. remember it is dark so not as much smoke as it looks like.


this is going to be a fast smoke. more to come.

also have a bottom round going for french dips for lunch.

it doesn't have the bark a slow cook would have. but i have to go to work in the morning. under 5 hours with a 3# brisket. from the time i lite the egg till finished resting 197 deg. and on the plate cooked . i know you would say 1.5 hours per pound which = 4.5 hours.

i am saying under 5 hours after i start to trim the brisket. lite the egg. get up to temp. wrap at 195. rest an hour. it is now ready in under 5 hours after work.. so happy

I haven't ever done just the flat (only whole packers), but I always go hot-and-fast on my briskets now. I usually start them about 250 for an hour or so, then up to 275-300+ until the bark is the way I want. Then into foil until it's super tender and ready for a rest.
