Brisket Cook Time - Guidance Needed

Hello Fellow Eggers,
We are going to be doing a relatively small 6 lb brisket this weekend.  I plan on indirectly cooking it on the BGE at 225-250F Dome.  Probably will do the "Texas Crutch".  I need recommendations on total cook time.  Thanks in advance.  Bruce Dimick

BGE Large,  Ancient Webber, Fire Pit

    Guessing it's a flat.
    Here's a link to a flat cook that has some time windows included but in the end "The cow drives the cook."

    Google brisket flat cooks on the big green egg and you will get many links. FWIW-
