I put the brisket on at 1:00 AM, woke up at 7 and it was already at 198

    Running around 250 that doesn’t really look that far off, also depends on where that temp probe was. Running around 225 will take considerably longer

    So how did it turn out? Hot n Fast can work!

    I’ve done the same and was surprised as well, but I gave it a good rest and it was amazing

  4. I had something similar happen once. I cooked at 275° by accident (I got the temperature stabilized at 225° and left the house. It rose in my absence.) I was certain it would be terrible when it hit final temperature before I even wrapped it. I took it off the BGE, wrapped in tallow brushed butcher paper and sealed in a cooler to rest for the meal that was still several hours later. It ended up being one of the best briskets I have made.

    Take the win and don’t look back.

    Did it happen to be prime? I’ve noticed that prime grade cooks much quicker than choice.

    I always cook at 275. It gets stuff done so much faster. Come to the dark side

  7. The graph temperature intervals are pissing me off😂 87-175-262-350-437.. WHY?!

    That’s about how long I go for total cook time with brisket that size or even a little bigger. I’ve never once done an overnight and I never will.

    275-300 turbo cook is my preferred method. Gets em done quick

    All my briskets cook within 4-6 hours on the Egg, I can’t explain but after just before target then wrap and it’s juicy and good. I’ve never done an overnight cook since.
