First Brisket Help/Suggestions

[mikecorn.1]

Gonna do a brisket for the first time after 3 years :o  It's from Wallyworld. Here it is. Sorry for the pics. iPhone.




It's 9.57 lbs. About hoe long do y'all think it should take. At 225' till what IT. Temp hold will be no problem, I got the dual 500's. PID, maverick, fan. Heck y'all know. Lol.

Wish I could help but I have never done one. The only thing I know is that it takes a lot of beer (for the cook).  ;D

Wow I wish I could get deals like that on brisket.

At the risk of sounding like an a$$hole, it'll take as long as it takes.  I generally plan for 1.5 hours per pound but it can go shorter or (much) longer.  Give yourself plenty of time and FTC and refrigerate/reheat if necessary.  After you trim, you'll probably have about 8-8.5 pounds so I'd start at least 15-16 hours before I wanted to serve it.  Better it's done early than late.

Using a select cut is a gamble, I use choice or CAB (Certified Angus Beef). Sometimes you can get a select that is very close to choice. If this is your first one, I would use either Brisket Pachanga or Brisket - WTS as a guideline.

It is all they carry at the Wallmart here. I did look at those threads before.
