Hi,
I've got a WSM 22 and was planning on doing a point end brisket and ribs for a BBQ on Sunday. I've done brisket once before and started it at 0700 on the Sunday and had to take it out at 86c as I ran out of time, it wasn't terrible but was a little tough.
So this time rather than start at 0400 in order for it to have 10-12 hours I'm wondering if I can part cook it on the Saturday, say from 1400 to 2200 and then finish it for 2 hours on the Sunday? I'm a bit concerned that part cooking may dry it out too much and I won't be able to get that juiciness back in the following day.
It's a 6.5 lbs point end brisket and was planning on smoking it at 110c for 10-12 hours and then using half for burnt ends and half just sliced and served.
I'm ok with the ribs as I've been doing those for a while on the WSM but not sure on the best path for the brisket?
