Only trimmed about 1 pound of fat. Amazing brisket so far.
Rookie move and missed the shot before seasoning. Sorry

yum! how many hours in are you?
do you just use a spider and a pizza stone instead of the platesetter? you know that makes a lot of sense when I say that out loud. -
You are in for a treat. Those are great briskets.Keepin' It Weird in The ATX FBTX

I just got used to Prime briskets finally being readily available at a reasonable price in GA. Now I have to be jealous of the Wagyu.
(Shakes fist at Texas).Which came first the chicken or the egg? I egged the chicken and then I ate his leg. -

Last photo was 10 hours in. Put on at midnight last night and it’s now 19:30am here. I think I hit my stall earlier than normal. Temp is now 150 and holding. I bumped the temp a little.brentm said:yum! how many hours in are you?

Basically a Woo Ring on my XL with round stone. Old platesetter with legs cut off after one broke.

oh my, that looks great.

Amazing - will you wrap in butcher paper ??Columbus, OH

I went naked the whole time but might wrap in paper for the rest, then foil til dinner at 6. It’s holding good moisture and jiggles when I open the dome. At 183 and probing almost perfect.NDG said:Amazing - will you wrap in butcher paper ??

First brisket that actually jiggles.lolThank you,DarianGalveston Texas -
You’re jiggling at 183? I know “the cow drives the cook”, but I thought that the jiggle usually starts around 200 or so. Is it jiggling earlier because it’s Wagyu? I thought I read that Wagyu typically finishes earlier because of the superior marbling. Looks excellent, by the way!!!Photo Egg said:

I started cutting it and it went so fast. No great photos.
Best one so far. Thanks for following.
Pulled at about 185.

Thank you,DarianGalveston Texas -
Oh damn! that looks like it turned out. I should have just dropped everything and made a bee line for Galveston.#1 LBGE December 2012 • #2 SBGE February 2013 • #3 Mini May 2013A happy BGE family in Houston, TX.

That last pic looks perfect- got to do another brisket soon.Greensboro, NC

Nailed it but I have never seen one release at that temp. Congrats for monitoring and bringing it home. Also congrats on recognizing that the "jiggle" is an indicator that many pitmasters use to declare victory. So, you truly moved into brisket pitmaster territory with that cook.
