    225-235F. Cook it to about 195-200 in the thickest part of the flat. When you can insert a fork against the grain and pull it out with no resistence, it's done. It should take you 8-10 hours to get 'er done.

    PIG PEN,
    I find that 250F to 300F dome temp works well. I cooked a 7 lb brisket in about 13 hours recently, with dome temps mostly around 270F.[p]You can reduce your time considerably by wrapping in foil when the brisket hits an internal temp of 160F.[p]Brisket is done between 190F and 200F, followed by at least a half hour rest. You can hold the brisket wrapped in foil, then towels, inside a warmed cooler for hours if you have to.[p]Check out Dr. BBQ's book for great brisket recipes. He has long cooking recipes, and the shortcut one that I'm trying today.[p]Good luck!
