So you are recommending the BGE for the brisket then?
Not necessarily making a recommendation per se, just letting you know that you can't go wrong with the BGE. The only one I'd actually recommend against is the electric smoker. It's my feeling that meat just has a better flavor if cooked with a real fire, whether it be charcoal or wood. I've only used the electric smoker for sausage and cold smoking cheese. Never used it for anything else. The Egg truly is a great piece of equipment though. I did the brisket and butt on it for the Cen Tex event and it was an all night cook. Gerald had to make one quick adjustment to the vents but from there, it remained perfect all night. Doesn't matter if it's -20 or 110 degrees, once you get it dialed in, it won't waver and it'll run for hours and hours. We have time to figure it out though. Still thinking I may go ahead and order the Rec Tec 700 though.
Tough call....
