Early in the cook… something looks off
Morning! First time cooking a brisket on my Kamado Joe. Got the grill up to temp ~250 and probed my brisket and put it on the smoker.
I bought a 11lb packer brisket and did a light trim as it was already well trimmed from butcher.
Usually the front of the grill runs cooler than the back so I put the point towards the back. I’ve been monitoring the temperature and the flat is cooking much faster. I always build my charcoal fire at the front and thought that maybe the front was running hot so I rotated it but it’s still climbing faster.
Im a bit concerned that this thing is cooking too unevenly. Is this normal early in the cook?
