SRF Black Brisket

Doing a 14# SRF Black brisket for my nieces birthday party tomorrow, I’ve read somewhere on here that they tend to cook a bit faster than your standard prime or choice, anyone with SRF experience have a roundabout time range cooking at 275?

    I’ve had a couple that I  felt cooked a little fast and others that didn’t. I would say 1 hr per lb at 250-260 will get you close.

    They have all cooked really fast for me.  Less than an hour a pound at less temp than that.

    It’ll cook faster than any prime. When it probes like butter in the thick part of the flat, and everywhere else, FTC it. 1/2-3/4 hours per pound at that temp.

    Work with an hour/lb at that dome temp and have a solid FTC plan ready to go.  With that, start checking at around 190*F in the thick part of the flat (only had one finish in the low 190's though) but for the past few years they have all declared victory in the low 200's-with one friggin cow that didn't play til around 209*F.  Trust the feel for the win and go with your normal brisket cook process. 
    Make sure to have a good sized air-gapped drip pan for the renderings-there will be a lot.  FWIW-
    Enjoy the cook and follow-on eats.  A true banquet awaits.
