Picked up a 12 lb. brisket this morning. Trimmed some of the excess fat and seasoned with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder and some smoked paprika.

Seasoned and waiting to go on the WSM.

About an hour and a half in to the cook. Had to put some foil on the ends cuz the ends were getting done too quick.

Turned out nice and tender. Used a mix of mostly lump and some Kingsford blue. 4 small chunks of oak mixed in the coals.

Thanks for looking!

That looks absolutely beautiful. I recently cooked a brisket, and it ended up looking nothing like that (I had to hold it for 6 hours due to miscalculating how long it would cook, so there was no bark by the time I sliced it). How did it taste?
 
Really good looking brisket !!
Knife skills are right up there also.

Only things missing is the parsley & turn-in box.
Bet the 'judges' enjoyed it.

Thanks Jim. I ran the WSM at around 300 (give or take) for the cook. But this is the reading from the factory top mounted therm. Not sure how accurate that is.
