Did my first brisket in the 020 yesterday.
-9.8# packer from HEB (on sale $1/lb) cryovac
-Rub applied 2hrs before cook
-In the smoker 225* at 9:00pm
-out of smoker at 9:00am next day at temp of 193*
-double wrapped in foil and into cooler for 3hrs
-Great results for lunch with parents while dad and I did a plumbing job on the shower.
-Reheated today in microwave with a touch of water and covered for 45sec..great leftovers.
Thought about using the recipe everyone raves about in the brisket forum but decided to keep it simple--glad I did. Great meal for $10.00.
