Just cooked up a 12.7 lb brisket. It took a mere 11 hours. My WSM went up to 300 degrees and probably stayed there for up to six hours during the night.
I lit it via the minion method. I mixed some unlit charcoal with chunks of non-soaked hickory. Any idea why the temp would soar like that? There was water in the pan.
Anyhow I pulled it off around 190-195. Hope that's right.
Any ideas on how to regulate the temp better. Of the three bottom openings, one was closed and the other two were at 1/3 open. Top was fully open.
Thanks,
Matt
