Best brisket to date!
Options
Started with a 14 pound prime packer from Costco. Kamado Joe lump @ about 270 degrees with Oak for smoke. Pulled @ 203 IT. This was by far the best brisket to come off my egg. I'm not sure why or just a combination of great piece of meat, or just luck.

Something to hang your hat on right there. Congrats. I can't think of a more satisfying feeling when egging.

Still not cooked brisket, despite loving it. Isn't 270f high? Always thought brisket was meant to be cooked at 230f (although with beef ribs I've smoked in past I've found are best when started 230 for 3hrs then cranked up to 270)

Grid temp is about 25 degrees less than done. The plus side is going a little higher temp is that I can put it on early in the morning and be done for dinner. At a lower temp you would have to deal with trying to push it to the finish. YMMVTheToast said:Still not cooked brisket, despite loving it. Isn't 270f high?
