Gene, yes the times are right in line with my normal. When I first joined the forum, I was one of those 275 guys as that was the temp I read in one article that A. Franklin does. Come to find out there were other articles where it said 225. I was totally happy with my track record at 275 but finally tried the 225 again and had a couple of good ones but about 15 briskets ago I upped it back to 260 and am happier there that at either of 225 or 275. Had some sliders from the flat on the smaller one I took out this morning and awesomely tender, moist with great bark. Finally found what I think will be my replacement for Tatonka Dust which I absolutely loved on top of Dalmation. Forgot the pictures again, but were just like the one I posted last Friday under the 4D section. Love my Smoking-it and my Brisket. I hope at least your -10 is a dry -10!
11 hours is pretty close average for 14-16#. Both of these probed out even though the temp on one flat was only 184! One never knows
