    @HofstraJet - definitely looks like a home-run.  I don't think the duration of FTC had anything to do with the cooling rate, unless it was cool at the close of the FTC.  
    If the FTC is needed for an extended duration, I would take the brisket out of the paper at the conclusion of the cook and then let it sit for about 15-20 min to stop the carryover cooking.  At that point I would do the foil, towels and pre-warmed cooler thing.  FWIW-

    Louisville; Rolling smoke in the neighbourhood. # 38 for the win.  Life is too short for light/lite beer!  Seems I'm livin in a transitional period.

    Sliced pics.... The holy grail....where are they? Brisket gods, anyone....am I the only one curious? No famous cazzy sliced on the knife shot? Looked great. But this was a gold brisket, guys not willing to pull the trigger need to see this piece of meat in its glory, and those willing to spend show it off.

    please know I'm kind of kidding.... Well done.
