Ok, so the OP was on the 7th, it's the 8th. Where are the finished photos??LBGE 2015 - Atlanta

All in good time...I seasoned it up last night and I'm starting it early Saturday morning to hopefully finish for dinner Saturday night. After trimming its about 8.5 lbs so I'm shooting for 225-250 for 12 - 14 hrs. I hope that's enough time? Wisconsin weather being what it is it looks like might get a couple inches of snow during the cook. I'll try to post some pics tomorrow.MelSharples said:Ok, so the OP was on the 7th, it's the 8th.

I'm looking for something to cook this weekend. I'll cook that so you don't have to worry.Jeepster47 said:@DMW ... aha, thanks. That makes me feel better about it. I know about the safety aspect, but simply don't like the idea ... just my curmudgeon side.
Good thing I still have keys

At the 8 hour mark....first peek. Been able to keep temps between 200 and 250. Stalled for an hour and a half around 163. Up to 170 now. Do these tend to finish quickly from here?LBGE in Elm Grove, WI -
Nice looking brisket, at a nice price!
We get no whole (packer) briskets at the Chesterfield Costco.

@Wanasmoke - regarding the pace to the finish-line...the cow always wins. Don't rush it as you may see anywhere from another 2-5 hours or more til the flat probes like buttah and you are there. Enjoy the SWMBO eggscape time and that awesome aroma emanating from your BGE.Louisville; Rolling smoke in the neighbourhood. Life is too short for light/lite beer!

Yep. Prime brisket at costco is the best deal i could find. Made one a few weeks ago for packers at cards tailgae and it was MONEY

@Wanasmoke whats the word? Waiting for the finish.

All I can say is wow! A whole new world of barbecue just opened up to me after that cook. 14 hours and it was worth every minute. The fact that something can cook that long and be that moist just blows my mind. Took it up to 196...rested for a half hour. I would've gone a bit longer but kids needed to eat. So flavorful with just salt and pepper- not sure if that's just the cut or the fact that it was prime? Plenty of leftovers for chili....I am a happy man
