Put two briskets on Saturday night, 11:00pm. One prime one choice. Put prime on top the choice below, both about 10lbs. Used dannys rub, full load of Kingsford, two handfulls of mesquite chunks. Two vents just cracked, one open about a third. Checked about 6:30am, brinkman water pan about half empty, 200 degrees on upper lid. Put in polder in top brisket, hit 171 degrees. Added water and charcoal, srayed with apple juice, opened vents a little, temp worked its ways on upper lid to close to 240-250. Pulled both about 1:15pm when temp was running 185-189 depending on where you tested. Wrapped in foil and insulating material and let sit for a couple of hours. Removed point and refrigerated until dinner. Sliced a bunch and nuked it a little to warm and served. Our friends are now going to buy a WSM. Best Brisket I have ever tasted. Wish I could have turned it in next week at Winthrop!
ps-Ryan put on two at 7:00pm, didn't watch temp close, did not refill water pan before hitting rack. In the morning the WSM was 70 degrees. Must have burned out the charcoal. Threw both away. Old age and treachery will win every time.
