I was able to start the brisket at 10pm as expected Friday night. My previous 14lb brisket took nearly 7.5 hours to hit the 170F mark.

Oddly enough I did everything exactly the same, but my 167F temp alarm went off at 3AM. So I got up, wrapped it and put it back on.

It took right at 3 hours to hit the 205 mark and I dropped it in the cooler at 6AM.

I left it cooler'd until 11 and had fantastic results. It was moist and tender all the way through. The point was nicely rendered and difficult to slice without wanting to come apart. The flat was juicy and even.

No telling why, but it took several hours less this time than the first time. I'm not complaining, and with 2 perfect attempts I'd call the "recipe" ready for prime time family get togethers. I've never been confident enough with my brisket results to do it for company.

Not all animals are the same.

if I hit stall temp around 3am I'd be inclined to skip wrapping, go back to sleep and let it roll through.
