And what are you checking the temp with?

You're still at the stall, where the hemoglobin is converting to isopropyl glycol (or something like that). Stay the course until it reaches 195°, wrap it in foil and towels, put it in a cooler for a few hours, and your wife will want to renew your vows with you.__________________________________________Dripping Springs, Texas.Just west of Austintatious

Run the temp up on your Egg, go to 350 and get that thing off your Egg.

Dome temp is about 260 and I am checking my temps with a thermapen. I should mention that it has been on since 9pm and when I woke up this morning it was below 200 by just a hair and I opened vents and it came back up within minutes, meat was still very warm so I do not think it was down for too long.

I'd bump it to 275-300....
What does the meat feel like? does fork go in & out easy? if you twist the fork, does the meat start to pull apart? these are the signs your looking for...Kent Madison MS -
fork and themapen go in easily, I will twist the fork and let you know what it is like but his is my first Briskett so I don't exactly know what I am lookin for there:
let me try some pics:

MississippiCoastEgg,
Looks like it is cooked to me. If it isn't easy to twist a fork you may want to wrap it in foil with some stock or juice and crank the temp.
