Brisket Time!
[/url]Brisket Time Again! by Jake Wilson, on Flickr[/IMG]
Picked this brisket up some weeks back while at Wal-Mart in Ocala Fla. Anyways, it was time to use it or freeze it, I chose smoke! Seasoned with black pepper and Lawry's Seasoning Salt. Label said it weighed 11.5 lbs., and I cut 1.8 lbs. of fat from it. Actually, the butcher that packed it in Cryovac, threw a few slices of fat in with the brisket...maybe the boss thought he cut too much off?<LOL>

This is the readings starting out. FWIW, I put this on at 1:30 AM this morning, July 9th 2015
At a quarter to 5 AM, I'm seeing the meat temp at 145 degrees and the smpoker is running at 232 degrees Fahrenheit. I built the coal fire using KBB and added some Apple wood chunks, Minnion Style

I forgot to take a pic when it went in so took this shot about a 1/2 hour after starting
this is a work in progress (She's still going=
I have to make a run to the airport in Gainesville (GNV) in about a half hour...I hope my temps run steady while I'm gone
