Just bought a beautiful 17 lb. choice brisket from Restaurant Depot to smoke for Sunday dinner.
I know that smoking time is just a guide as to when to start checking for tenderness but figuring on
trimming 2 lbs. of fat that leaves me with a 15 lb. brisket and @ 90 min/lb. we're talking
21 hours. Yikes! It is a choice cut and it's really nicely marbled from what I can see.
Just trying to figure out when to start smoking. Dinner's at 5:00 p.m. Sunday so "ideally" I'd like to take
it off the smoker by 1:00 p.m Sunday so what do you think, put it on at 7:00 Saturday night?
Thanks.
