SRF Brisket

Options
I bite the bullet and bought a SRF Gold Brisket to feed my coworkers tomorrow. Going to season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
14.4 lbs before trimming, going to be cooking at temperature of 250 degrees. Using oak for smoke.
Question, fat side up or down and how long to expect till done?
Thanks, for inputs!

    Fat side down and it will cook a lot faster and be done at a lower temperature than you expect.

    That is biting a healthy bullet right there.  PM sent that may be of value for this and follow-on brisket cooks.
