Brisket / Ribs at the Same time

[Brian B.]

I'm rethinking my decision to try brisket and ribs at the same time tonight. I want to eat at around 7pm and know the ribs will need to go on at roughly 3 to make that happen. Their temp will need to range from 225-275 to get the job done.

If it is 10:30 right now, do I have time to make a 5 lb brisket?

Brian, how many cookers are you planning on? Why the change of heart? Seems to me like you have plenty of time for both if you cook the brisket HH.

Won't going HH with the brisket mess the ribs up? I only have 1 cooker to run.

Brian, i cook pork spare's,bb , beef spares, beef short ribs, english ribs all at 275-300 range come out excellent. Just have little room for error that's the only draw back.

I think with a 5lb brisket you will not have a problem. I find that flats cook pretty quick and if you foil it around 160* or less it should be done early. If anything hold the brisket in a cooler while the ribs finish up. IMO your just fine. Roll with it! Vince
