Brisket on now for Grad party tomorrow

I put 2 whole (not flat) briskets on my XL BGE at 10 p.m., for a graduation open house at 4 p.m., tomorrow.
Starting temp 200, up to 250 now. I'm gonna ratchet back the air vents, in an effort to maintain 225 through the night, dropping down to 210ish early in the morn.
Thoughts... Recs?

You're doing good. Thanks for not asking this at noon tomorrow. Have you done brisket before? Do you plan to foil or not? Either way, you'll be done early--wrap in foil and then towels, and store in a cooler. Good call on not doing just the flats--the point is where it's at.
You could probably get that BGE tuned in and get some sleep, but part of the fun is staying up all night and monitoring it. Hope it turns out well. We want pictures.

Yeah, lived in W Tex for 8 yrs., but only been an egghead for a year. I haven't found the sweet spot for briskets on the egg yet. I think I undercooked last time. I don't want to be pressured on time this go round.
I'm turning in, and hoping the egg does it's magic, but I do have an alarm set for 1:30 and 3:30
I haven't decided on foil, glaze, or sauce.

I think we had a solid night. Ran from about 225 at 1:30 and peaked about 250 around 3:30. Was at 210 when I got up at 6:30.
I'll start checking temps around noon. I'm not sure I'm gonna do anything with regard to foil, glaze, or sauce. I think I'm gonna let the egg drop down to like 100, and let them ride til serving.
I put a pretty heavy dry rub on them last Sunday.
What's the easiest way to get pics from phone to website.

wrap with foil and finish in the oven...theyre not going to absorb anymore smoke

Well,
We can reserve judgement for when the pics arrive.

Gus, you might consider picking up the Maverick ET 732, dual probe digital meat thermometer. The remote can be placed on the night stand and alarm if the temps get out of range. It will help you sleep easier while the meat is making.

Sounds like you're doing great but I have no clue of what you're talking about with the glaze and sauce part of your comment.

Brisket, although not the best cut of meat is the creme de la creme of the smoking world. If you can pull off a brisket you've "made it". After all my smoking ventures, I still have yet to drudge up enough confidence to try a brisket.
Good luck and godspeed!

Yeah, I know no self respectin Texan would, but I'm not a Texan, and the BGE forums are ate up w/ recipes for them.
Fear not! I'm going in dry (sauce on side)
