Brisket + 4 hr Oak = Heaven  :D

It all works just go for it and let us know how things turn out.

I think all of the above choices on wood are good. But I do lean a bit to oak or a mix of apple and hickory. As Arnie said on time, mine to have been closer to 2 hours per pound. Good luck and keep us posted.

Can you find a small one to practice with before then?
That's what I did for my first brisket.  1/2 of a flat.   Maybe 15 bucks worth...

Then you can adjust times/temps/wood/rub/procedures for the 'real' one.

I hear that, Squirt I am only doing a 5.5 lb one so if I should screw it up no worries it was pretty cheap.... the next one will be a big fat packer for sure
