Cooking time for multiple small-ish briskets?

Hey all,
First time poster on the forum. Wife surprised me with a LG G.E. for my 30th birthday. She also surprised me by letting me know I was cooking for my surprise 30th birthday party tomorrow. She picked up three 5lb briskets to make. I know the general rule of thumb is 1.5-2hrs/lbs of meat, but what if they are all separate pieces? I assume I should be looking for a 195-205 internal temp on all three.

Any idea?
Thanks in advance.

Sounds like the brisket is 3 trimmed brisket flats judging from the size. If you keep them separated the total cook should only take 6-8 hours at 235-250 dome temp. 195 internal temp and your probe should slip into the meat easily. Good luck and welcome!
Any road will take you there if you don't know where you're going.

Sidenote, do you normally inject the brisket with any fluids (apple juice)? -
