    We cooked one this weekend that was 5lbs at the GA MTN Eggfest and it's the same concept at a larger brisket.  Cooked at about 230 grid temp for 8 hours or so and I believe internal temp was 202 when we pulled it.  Time and temp isn't as important as tenderness though.  Once it gets to 195 I usually start checking to see how tender it is and once the thermometer goes in with no effort I pull and wrap.  Good Luck.

    I feel bad for people who don't drink. When they wake up in the morning, that's as good as they're going to feel all day
