    Here's another shot. Thanks again all who commented today, I've learned a lot. Next time the only thing I might change: the inclusion of the water pan. image

    Yeah man...the reason why I suggested the water pan is cause I hear flats cooked by themselves are pretty difficult to cook.  That's why I think travis's boil method is great for flats.

    The only thing I would suggest is to start at 225 on your next flat so you can develop a good bark.

    That looks great man...great color and a you got a kickass smoke ring on that sucker.  Still chasing that myself.
    Just a hack that makes some $hitty BBQ....

    @cazzy My theory on the smoke ring is it all has to do with ambient humidity. Which explains here in PA I can create a killer smoke ring with mediocre results.

    Next time put a pot of beans under to catch the drippings, it really adds to the flavor. I have also cut up some of the brisket into it. Looks good.
