KCAL56, Unfortunately the results were less than stellar. Here's a rundown of what I did wrong (I think).
1. My wife purchased a flat brisket- about 2 1/4 #. Bad Idea!

2.With a too small Brisket w/ hardly any fat on it - I started it smoking at around 12:30 pm - more on this later

3. Since the Brisket was so small I had a bad time with the remote thermometer - it couldn't decide if it was @ 170 or 210 five min. later - My remote just won't work well in a brisket that thin.

4. 9:00pm - my wife threatened me - either we eat now or else- I wasn't brave enough to find out what "or else" meant - so out it came at somewhere between 170 and 210 degrees - turned out it was 170 - not so good - and I should know I got it for breakfast lunch and dinner until it was gone - thank God it was only 2 1/4#.

Now the Ribs I did - those were stellar!
