I bought a half brisket at Giant and want to smoke it for around a 1 pm dinner time tomorrow. I’ve done whole briskets of varying weights, but never bought one or done one like this. I have a camp chef 24 se pellet grill that I’d like to do it on. It’s 19 degrees right now with a high of 24 degrees by 11 am. I’m not experienced smoking in the winter. I do not have a grill insulation cover. Does anyone have any advice on what time to put this thing on??

Weber Genesis, WSM... I will grill about anything.
Also I know I cannot spell
Its 3:30AM where I am so I am not going to text. It all depends on thickness, I have found the cooking in the winter only changes the cooking time a bit, you just need to refuel more. I would suggest making sure you have 12 hours, if you need to use a faux cambro its fine.
How do caterers hold cooked meats safely for so long? It's called a hotbox or Cambro and you can make a faux Cambro with a simple beer cooler. It's the secret to resting large cuts of BBQ like brisket, pork butts, and whole turkeys while keeping them warm and transporting them. Here's how to set up a faux Cambo.
