Stalled brisket

[Johnnyxray]

Hi All,
I am new to the forum and the bradley smoker.
I am doing about a 6.5 b brisket and it has stalled around 165. I knew this happened with pork butt, is this normal with a brisket? It has been about 4 hours now at 165.
Thanks,
John

Yes! Normal and also is a good thing.

Your brisket is doing some magic.

Thanks for such a quick reply. This forum has always been a great read, even better now to participate. And I will take pictures.

Yep.....All is good.  I am doing some summer sausage and it stalled at 120 for 3 hours.  Thought it would never start climbing again.

Excuse my rudeness!

Welcome!

Yes, get used to the stall...

Butts, Briskets, Chuck Roasts, sticks, sausages, etc.


It's worth it in the end!   ;)

In some cases, I consider the stall as "Happy Hour"! ;D
