The Masters- SRF Brisket

Got home last night a little earlier than planned from Augusta, and decided I was gonna do the brisket I had thawed out last week in the fridge.
Around a 12 pounder, SRF Black brisket.. Quick trim this morning, some fresh ground pepper, salt and a smidge of coffee. Rubbed on, and into the large Egg, with post oak, and a couple chunks pecan. I like a little pecan with my beef, we used both as a kid growin up in CenTex.
Anywho- Masters Sunday is upon us, and the leaders have just taken the course. 60-65 here in Georgia, plenty of sunshine, calm winds finally, and enjoying the company of my 3 little boys, all in our Masters gear and hats. This is holiday in our home!
Pics to come as it finishes- it's my 3rd SRF brisket I've done, hope it was as good as the last from the Superbowl.
She's wrapped up in some butcher paper for the time being, was around 170-180, and got the egg temp dropping down a bit for a slower cook, and then I'll put it in the yeti and wait until dinner time!

I did mine Friday night into yesterday evening. Really good beef flavor. Was slightly disappointed in the tenderness of the flat but oh my Lord the point was amazing. The flat probed well at about 187. Maybe I should have let it ride a bit longer.I raise my kids, cook and golf. When work gets in the way I'm pissed, I'm pissed off 48 weeks a year.Inbetween Iowa and Colorado, not close to anything remotely entertaining outside of football season.

Yeah, I've heard of SRF brisket finishing a little earlier in the 185-190 range. So I just went with it. I'm going to go get my regular brisket that I have access to every day and try to cook it this week so I'll have this cook fresh in my mind for a comparison.I raise my kids, cook and golf.

I am a firm believer in the feel in the thickest part of the flat-temperature being only a guide. That said, I have learned that the higher quality of the cut the wider the finish-line window. That said, that should not really impact the texture once you get the feel. But, I'm not from Texas so I'm just theorizing here. Regardless, any brisket cook is great fun on the BGE, the results, only a bonus. 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.
