Hi all,
I was hopin' to get oppinions about cooking time for a 6.5 ibs brisket flat. The brisket will probably fit on one tray. I was thinking about baby back for the other 3 trays.
For the baby backs I fugure 3 hours hickory and 5 hours 220f.
I'm guessin' the brisket 10 hours with two additional hours of pecan.
What does the gang say?
I would say you have a plan and likely pretty close. ;) Temps will tell. ;D What is your plan on sequence of the cook with two different smoke flavors ???
Thinking your going to have a good day!
I'm going to start out with the Brisket. Get the Pecan smoke done. After five hours add the ribs and the hickory smoke. I'm hopin that the pecan and hickory will complement each other.
Just my imho, I do not think pecan will mix with hickory. You have two opposing flavours. Hickory is very distinct and can be quite sharp! The pecan would be more soft and sweet.

Sounds like an adventure to me. Go ahead - live on the wild side - you may like it - if not then you know what not to do. :D
Don't forget a pre-warmed cooler will keep a foil wrapped rack for hours. Pulled 3 boats of ribs at around 2 PM. Place them in a pre-warmed cooler. Headed to my friends 60th anniversary. At 8:30 PM the 3rd boat rack was still at an I.T. of 120 Deg.
11:00 The brisket has finished faster than I thought with a IT of 190. So, I will FTC the brisket then put the ribs in. IT looks like I don't have to worry about mixing the smoke. Baby back should take less than 5 hours.
