Be carefully on Prime they are easy to over cook. If it is your first brisket 195 is a good time to take it off if you are not sure about probing. If you over cook it it will crumble when sliced.

After reading this and commenting, I think I am going to have to pick up a brisket to do this week. Got me hungry.

Is that the same as Meathead's Mop Sauce? I don't mop my briskets, but the mop sauce is the bomb on the brisket on the plate or on bread and, also, put some in when you seal up leftovers for freezing. It's similar (spot on!) to the thin flavorful spicy sauce favored by many Texas BBQ joints.

ddmcwhirter it USED to be their secret when the fries were good! they were done in beef tallow. now they use a mix of vegetable oils and they suck. I think they changed around 1990 when the saturated fat craziness was at its peak.

Looks great.
Ironic - I had purchased a Costco Prime Packer a month and a half ago in Austin. Smoked it 2 weeks ago. My wife and I had some but my brother in law loves my smoked brisket for Thanksgiving. So, I cut 3/4 of the brisket, the point side, and did a vacuum seal - into the freezer.
We had an early Thanksgiving yesterday - nice brined turkey (it was quite moist) a bunch of delicious sides and my brisket. I reheated the sealed brisket in a pot of just under boiling water.
I also made up a batch of barbecue-juice for dipping.
There was 25 people at this dinner - the brisket won out over the turkey! Lots of left over bird, but no beefy brisket ;-)

I've gone back on forth on what I'm going to do. With a controller, it's easy enough to go low and slow overnight but I think the timing would be off if I did that. So I think I'll cook it whole, hot and fast, wrap at 165, pull it at probe tender, stick it in cambro until it's time to eat. Since it's already been dry brined I think I'll just hit it with coarse pepper before it goes on the kamado.
A couple of things I'm not sure about. Should I inject? Should I use a water pan? Should I start at 250 to get some smoke on it? Do I spritz? What temp do I settle at... 325?

Doing my first brisket today too. Was given a 12#. Not sure if the grade but it looks nice. Dry brined overnight (~24 hours), trimmed, dubbed with BBBR, 225 indirect in the large BGE. Got 155 at 6.5 hours, wrapped, added beef broth and whosyersister sauce, put back on. In the mean time made wifey and I (and the furry smoking buddies) bacon, eggs, and homemade hashbrowns. Then i set my scale back 10 pounds and took a break.

Well I thought it came out great. It was a very easy cook, other than the trimming it was as easy as a pork shoulder. Definitely a big step up from the chuck roasts I've been cooking often. Wont be my last that's for sure. I didn't get any good shots when it was done done or after I sliced it this time.
