I'm cooking just a flat for a class party tomorrow night. It weighs in at 5.5 pounds and has the fat cap intacts. I've only cooked full briskets before and never bothered to track time much.
Can anyone give me a ballpark figure for how long this will take? I'm guessing 6-8 hours. I need to pull this off at 4pm and then leave for class. So, I'm thinking if I put it on at 8am it should be at 185 degrees between 2pm and 4pm if I cook at 225 degrees.
Am I on track? Thanks for the advice!
