Cooked my first brisket on the KBQ recently and I am truly amazed how well it turned out! This was my first long cook and the brisket turned out better than any I have ever cooked on my PBC or pellet grill. The flat was a little dry, but the temp was around 275 for awhile which was probably the reason. I did spray it with a little beef broth/worcestershire/apple cider vinegar mix about every hour but I may try a water pan next time too. Hopefully the next one will be even better.
I wrapped at about the 9 hour mark pulled it at about 201 and let it rest about an hour and a half before slicing it. The whole process took about 12 hours. The smokey flavor was great, not bitter or over smoked at all. I ran full bottom poppet and half top poppet the whole time and used post oak.
