Armed with information from this Great Forum and it's BGE Gurus, my first brisket ever (10 lb packer) just went on for tomorrow afternoon's football and fighting party. Rubbed with DP and a few additions stolen from other recipes I found here. Plan for 13-16 hours with a long cooler rest - then slices, burnt ends and chili!
Here it is waiting:
Found some use for the fat trimmings....further seasoning of the CIDO:
Will add pics of the results tomorrow.
Thanks to all of you for your valuable insight this year with my new cooking machine. Wishing you a happy, safe and prosperous New Year!

Thanks Julia! Not too nervous...I've prepared as much as possible. Worst case: it goes in the chili!!

Haha - always good to have a backup plan!

This Egg is like the Ronco oven - set it and forget it
Chugging along nicely! Looking forward to tomorrow -

Looks like you are off to a great start....I expect you will have some mighty fine brisket tomorrow afternoon!

16 hours in. Actually a bit darker than pic shows due to flash. 172* - getting close

You are in the home-stretch! Looks perfect.

Actually ended up being 18.5 hrs - off the Egg, point removed and ready to go in cooler.
Point back on for first burnt ends attempt
Which ended up like this
The sliced pics of brisket didn't come out good enough to see, but it did turn out tender and moist. I learned alot from this and will try it again -
Almost forgot -
Chili! Off the Egg and ready to go...a big hit. I keep working to perfect the recipe, and end up making it different every time. Oh well, it was good, and will be better the day after (today)
