    First Brisket on! (Its done. Pictures add.)

    Tasted great but will be making my own rub next time. It had good smoke flavor and was nice a tender. Pretty moist but could of been a little better. The only thing I didn't like was the rub. It was spicy and just a little over powering. Here are the final pictures of the brisket. Here it is...

    First Brisket on! (Its done. Pictures add.)

    It's done. 205 internal temp. Now it's wrapped up in a couple towels and in an ice chest. Going to sit for 2 hours till we are ready to eat. Pictures to come when I unwrap it.

    First Brisket on! (Its done. Pictures add.)

    So it reached the 165 internal temp. in 5hr 25min. Pulled it out and wraped it in foil. Now just going to wait till it hits 205. Looked good when I pulled it out. Didn't get a picture because I was trying to hurry. I'll take some before I cut it up and after I cut it up.

    First Brisket on! (Its done. Pictures add.)

    Well it's going on 3 hours now. The internal temp has been holding at 160 for a while mow. Should be right on target then. Once it hits 170 I'll pull it out and wrap it in foil to finish it off. Once I do that, I don't have to add wood chips anymore correct?

    First Brisket on! (Its done. Pictures add.)

    So I'm getting a little concerned. I'm 1hr 20min in and my internal temp is already at 156. Should it be going this fast? It's about a 7 pound brisket, temp set at 225.
