Yes, another first brisket

[SmokyMose]

I always wanted to try a whole brisket and with the new posts lately I figured now is the time!
Got an 8.5# one at GFS. I only took off about a half# of fat. Rubbed it with my own rub and a little CBP.

The 'Griller seems comfortable in the 270 range, so that's how we roll today. Nothing but Hickory...

Daum, that looks amazing, great price on that brisket. She's forming a nice bark.

You're livin large!

Stalled at 164 for an hour now. Good time to slide in some Dutch's Wickeds.

Yeah, I'm pretty tickled [emoji]9786[/emoji]

Lol. Mine hit the wall at 166 today. But I didn't make any of Dutchs beans to occupy my time. I should have thought of it!

I'd planned on getting one @ Costco, but the promised shipment didn't come in. As I was dejectedly leaving I saw a GFS sign across the street and gave it a try. They had a shelf of them from 8# to 14#. I swear I heard an Angel Choir...

I made them up yesterday because the last time I made beans while smoking I lost track of time and lost the fire!!

10-4 on that, Prankster! Like Bugs Bunny used to say,"If you take life too seriously, it'll kill you!" :beercheer:

 

[SmokyMose]

Anyway, I foiled it at 175 @ 3:00. Bumped the heat up to +-300 until the Maverick said 201 and an instant read said 106. (?)
That was at 4:15.

A lot of meat for the price. I don't think I'd care to tackle a big one, though!
