I've got a 9 1/2 lb. choice packer on the Grand Slam pellet smoker and it's looking like it's going to be done way early, I just can't get the timing figured out for briskets. The last one I did I figured 90 mins./lb. at 225 which took 15 1/2 hours and even then it was slightly underdone according to the pull-test. For this one, which is about 2 lbs. bigger, I figured 2 hrs./lb. at 225. It's maybe just getting into the stall, so I dropped the pit temp to 200 hoping to slow the train down some. Should I just let it go without wrapping until I put in the faux cambro, or should I go ahead and wrap (butcher paper or foil?) after the stall? How long do you think I can hold it in the cooler, keeping it above 140?
For pellet smokers, what temp do you cook brisket at and how much time per pound of meat do you figure for your cooks?
