Brisket cooking question...

[jt2134]

Brisket cookers I have a question. You do prefer to cook your brisket hanging for the whole time, or do you hang/wrap/place on grill like the PBC video? I am cooking one tomorrow haven't decided which way to try. Thanks!

My first brisket I followed the PBC video. It turned out really good. The only thing I didnt like was the bark. It was to moist for my liking. Since then I have been using the grate and cooking fat side down and no wrap. I also do a 24 hour dry brine doing it this way. Both ways taste good. I just prefer the bark of the unwraped one. Around here Ive only found the flat. Some one may suggest something different for a whole packer.

I go fat cap down and on the grate the entire time.............
