15lb Packer Brisket
« on: July 31, 2021, 12:53:10 AM »
I am doing a 15lb packer brisket.....I got the meat at restaurant depot.....

I trimmed the brisket down a solid amount.  I am cooking at 225 degrees.  I will be pulling at 165/170 and wrapping in tinfoil and I will be adding apple juice inside of the wrap.  I also have two water trays filled with apple juice inside of the smoker.

I am using 6-7oz of Hickory wood.

I placed two probes in the thick part of the flat for temperature accuracy.

That’s a big ol brisket!

Should be good. What did you rub with?

For the wrap - just make sure your bark is set where you want it before you wrap. Foil and the juice may soften the bark up a bit. But that looks like a great plan you have!

Enjoy!

Wound up bumping the temp up to 250 degrees after I wrapped in tinfoil.  I pulled it when the flat was at 202 degrees.   Going to wait an hour before trying some.

Brisket is a labor of love! 
Smokin-it smokers make the labor about as easy as it gets. 
Love my Smokin-it smoker!
