Smoking at 225 compared to 180 or lower on pellet smokers

[Marknmd]

I did an experiment where most of the smoke time was at 160. I describe it on this other thread (page 3): https://www.smokingmeatforums.com/threads/brisket-how-low-can-you-go.318859/. wrapped and finished in oven at 190. After about 6 hours rest in cooler it was soft. I recorded my experience in a YouTube video, now I'm trying a different route smoking at 200 all the way through but with 14-16 hours before wrapping based on another youtube video.

Your second link doesn't work - you need to take "studio." out of the url

Thanks. I'm going to put together a video of my results from using a modification of that mojobarbeque video I linked. I started the cook yesterday and will have results tonight.

14-16 hours before wrapping came out too dry. The comparison cooking version with 8 hours unwrapped and 8 hours wrapped both at 195 did the best and it worked both times with about a 16 or 17 lb brisket, prime grade.
