Hi there -
I'm getting ready to try my first brisket on a my BGE. Done chicken, pulled pork & OTT chilli on it before. I've ordered a 1.5kg (about 3.3 lb) piece to feed 4 people, so it's a small piece to be ready for mid-afternoon. It's going to be a whole lot of firsts for me:
- First brisket
- First fan assisted cook (using a Fireboard Drive thermometer & fan setup)
- First overnight cook (probably)
There's a ton of advice out there, but more welcome...
For instance, does it need a crutch, would this be done in the middle of the night - and how will I know when if I'm sleeping through the night..?
How many woodchunks to use?
thanks!
marc
