Have a look at the link:

... The following website says 167* ( http://wyntk.us/smoking-times-and-temperatures )
A HUGE pet peeve for me is posting temps like this. Why? Because no one publishes the same information and there are always mistakes and doneness goes along with tenderness and it's not a temp based answer.
I've been asked a lot for lists like this and I try to avoid them.
Q isn't an "exact" temp.
For me, he said slicing is 180 for brisket.
REALLY? It would be shoe leather for me at that temp. I'd say more like 190 to 195, but then I'd have to say it depends on the cow, the smoker, the size/shape of the brisket, etc, etc.
Sliced PB at 175, more like 185.
Chicken Thighs or quarters, I would say 175 to 180 for tenderness reasons.
Ribs at 172. Are you kidding?
See why I can't list one temp.
