Got med egg going at 200 dome put on 13 pound brisket.
Brisket rubbed with slather and DP coarse grind sitting out for 2 hours to get to room temp. This brisket had a lil more fat than normal I think that may have contributed to the longer cook. After a few hour ramped it up to 235. At 17 hours got it up to 250 dome temp for the rest of the cook. A few times dome temp went down abnout 20 -30 degrees but came back up after a lil coxing. At 16 hours brisket was at 260 internal. next it went down to about 255 internal for a long while then started to climb again. pulled at about 190 ineternal after 26 hours. Every few hours I would spray with miture of cider vinergar and apple juice.. turned out great. had to cut slices a lil thicker because it was so tender. All guests loved it. Chopped a bunch of it along with the burnt ends and served that also on buns. chopped was very good also tsome like it better han the sliced pieces.IMG_4427.jpgGETTIN READY RUBBED AND SITTIN OUT TO ROOM TEMPIMG_4430.jpgCOOKIN ON THE MED ABOUT 16 HOURSIMG_4432.jpgON THE COUNTERIMG_4433.jpgON THE PLATE WITH POTATOE PANACKES AND VEGETABLES.

    The bark looks great. I'm sure that it was tasty.

    I couldn't help but notice in your last picture that your gas grill looked kinda lonely. Not getting much use since you bought the BGE?

    Any road will take you there if you don't know where you're going.

    Whew 26hrs! You have more patience than I do. The longest I've ever done one was 14hrs. I pull them when they reach 190 (the first time).
  • Nice looking brisket but "ouch" at 26 hours. My last brisket was 13 pounds and cooked at 350-375 for 4.5 hours. According to 14 guests, it was the best brisket they had ever eaten.
