I found a bunch of certified angus brisket at C&C.. just a few cents more per pound than the select bunch that were nearby.. took the smallest one.. 14.56 lbs.. prepped it and put in in the fridge for the night.

This is the next morning probably around 7 or 8 oclock after an all night temp of 225 to 240 degrees.

after 16 hours the meat was nearing completion so I prepared some potatos for the performer..

the brisket was my fourth one and best one to date.. spuds were killer and cauliflower was good. the brisket sat double wrapped in foil and juices and put in the cooler for 3 hours while I made the potatoes.. longest I ever let one sit.. hope you enjoyed the pics.. Dave
 
Great looking meal Dave. That brisket looks awesome! Tell me about your potato recipe?

John, here is the potato recipe.. I do not take credit for this recipe.. it is one I found while looking around and found it very good.. worth putting in the recipe box.

THE INGREDIENTS YOU'LL NEED:

Cheese – 4 cups Sharp Cheddar, Jack or your favorite cheese
Butter – 1 stick
Half-and-half cream – 1 Quart
Smoked Bacon – ½ lb (cooked prior on the grill)
Russet Potatoes – 3 to 4 lbs
Green Onions (Chives)
Parsley
Onion – 1 large
Salt
Ground Black Pepper
12 Inch Black Cast Iron Skillet
Tin Foil
DIRECTIONS

GETTING READY

1. Chop up your Bacon, Onions, Parsley and Chives
2. Slice your potatoes thin on a slicer or mandolin
3. Set up your grill for indirect heat (hot coals on one side of the grill and no coals on the other side of the grill) – You’re looking for a grill temperature of 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

COOKING

4. Place your skillet on the side of the grill with no coals
5. Grease the bottom and sides of the skillet with about 1 to 2 Tbs of butter
6. Build the first layer in the skillet

Place a layer of the thin sliced potatoes in the bottom of the skillet
Add Salt and pepper to the potatoes
Add about 1/3 of the onions to the skillet
Add some parsley and chives
Add smoked bacon pieces
7. Build the second layer in the skillet – just like the first layer putting down a layer of potatoes, salt, pepper, onions, chives, parsley and smoked bacon
8. Build a third layer in the skillet – just like the first 2 layers
9. Add a top layer of the sliced potatoes
10. Put 3 cups of shredded cheese on top of the potatoes
11. Pour 1 quart of Half and Half into the skillet
12. Add more smoked bacon
13. Cut up the remaining butter into pats and place over the cheese
14. Cover the skillet with foil this will allow the potatoes to cook
15. Place cover on grill – cook time will be about 1 ½ hours
16. After 45 minutes

Rotate the skillet 180 degrees so everything cooks evenly
17. After 1 hour

Remove the tin foil from the skillet – this will allow the remaining half and half to steam off
Add 1 cup of shredded cheese to the top of the potatoes
Rotate pan 180 degrees
18. At 1 ½ hours remove skillet from grill

FINALIZING

19. Cut and serve with a spatula
20. Add your favorite BBQ meat

SERVE AND ENJOY!
