I have a supersmoker elite which I just got and love. I loaded it with three 10 pound briskets and expected to cook them for around 12 hours at 225. However, after 7 hours the meat probe read 185, so I took them out. I checked this with a digital thermometer and it confirmed the temp. I also checked at several places in the different briskets. The brisket was good, but not as moist or tender as I would have liked it. Any suggestions? Should I have just let it go for the full 12 hours? Should I smoke at a lower temp like 200?
