Hey Hoss.....Could sworn I heard the whistle when I carved this one up. Thanks.

No problem, Kernel.......Well, prep was just rubbed with LIGHT sea salt and Bayou Barq Rub. Went on at 10:00PM Sat. nite at 250*, stayed on til I pulled it when it was reading 196* internal at 10:00AM the following morning. I wrapped it in a tightly sealed aluminum foil pan and place it in the holding oven at 170* until about 4:00PM Sunday. Let it rest still covered up til 6:00PM. Opened her up at 6:00PM, sliced and watched the juices emerge. One other thing......before placing in the holding oven, I diluted a bottle of my favorite sauce with water and placed it in the bottom of the pan before I sealed it up. That assures moisture in the holding cavity to keep it juicy. It cut with a fork. I do both briskets and butts like that and it provides plenty of flexibility for on the back end to accommodate a variety of serving times. Never a hastle. For what it's worth. It's not the only way to do it, but it's what works for me.
