Hi everyone. I am new to this forum just wanted to say hello. I am fairly new to the Green Egg world, just got my first (a large) a few weeks ago. Been cooking on it like crazy, but still working out some kinks. I come from an old school, upright charcoal type smoker, so having the egg is awesome!
Anyway, I work in the beef business so if anyone has any beef related questions feel free to ask me and I will answer the best I can.

Useless knowledge, but the brisket muscle supports a large portion of the animals walking/standing weight as they don't have collar bones. That benig said, you can pretty much do anything you want to a brisket during prep....it is already tough as it is. The key to any good brisket is to take your time and not get in a hurry. 190* is a good temp to reach. Similar to a pork butt in that you want to cross that temperature threshold where the internal fat fully breaks down.

I'll suggest that you should forget methods you developed w. other kinds of cookers. For instance, ceramic cookers really do reduce moisture loss from meats, so having a pan w. water is pretty much a waste of heat energy.
Happy cooking!
