Title: Brisket on the Kettle..
Post by: Sam3 on April 15, 2014, 08:47:44 AM

Smoke was the one that actually walked me through a Brisket cook on the Kettle.

I did it a little different this time.
 
6.5lb flat, untrimmed ready for the kettle. S&P, that's it.

Did a 2x2x1 ring with Kingsford Blue with a few chunks of hickory.
Put this on at 7AM. Cruised @250-265ish for most of the time.

Almost 7hrs later, IT was 164. Double wrapped in foil with 1/3cup of Hot Beef broth. Added a little more charcoal and then back on.
Probe temp tender (this was a first for me). I've always gone with IT.
It was close to 210 at the thickest part.

OK, I didn't ruin it...

Meat and taters.

You sure it ain't ruined?  Maybe you need to send it to my house so I can try it for you just to make sure  ;)

Looks perfect.  Amazing what happens when you quit relying on the temp for brisket doneness and get that butter tender probe feel.

Perfect briskie. A kettle can produce a brisket as good as any off-set can  8) 8)
