Beef Brisket

Unknown
edited November -0001 in EggHead Forum
How long should a 10lb brisket cook and at what temperature? I am assuming you use a plate setter for indirect cooking?/
Any help would be appreciated

  • MD,[p] I really need to do a Brisket page like my pulled pork page :)[p]It will take 1-2 hours per pound at 250 degs DOME. The exact time will depend on how much fat and connective tissue is in the meat.[p]Plan on 1.5 hours per pound and go from there.[p]FYI: Get the egg stable at 250, and the smoke clear. Put the meat in, close the lid and WALK AWAY. You touch that vent in the first 30 minutes after the meat is in and you'll be chasing the temp till the end.[p][p]
  • MD, you can believe exactly what Celtic Wolf said. I know, I chased all last night.

  • Celtic Wolf,
    Keeping it stable seems to be the challenge. How much Charcoal do you use for the length of time you are cooking?
    A 10lber according to your directions would take 15 hours. Do you have success in keeping your temperature up at that level for the entire cooking time?[p]MD
