a little intimidated

[Jim J.M.]

i just checked and its about 187, the probe went in a little tough but came out very easy.should I take it off and let it rest in the cooler?

Temp is immaterial. I'd say it needs more time based on how you say it feels.

Especially that advice about the beer.

Jim,

In all seriousness, I'm pretty novice, like you. My impulse always seems to pull it off a little too soon, either from anxiousness about overcooking, or concern over how it looks, or general gluttony. If you're like me, it'll probably take longer than you think.....

 

[Jim J.M.]

Yep that is making it a lot more fun!!! Just about ready to come off.Pictures to follow !!

How did it go?

After waking from our food hangover, I have to say it went very well. Im still trying to post some pictures, the brisket was very moist and tender. My neice just got braces and was able to eat for the first time since Monday. I did have a problem separating the point from the flat, but i guess it will get better over time. I did have a beer for everyone who helped me, again THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR HELP!!!
