so my Brisket was done by 2:30pm, I pulled it with an IT of 202 on the point, but my probe and tooth pick tests weren't really to my liking, not smooth like butter, but decided to just pull it and let it rest for a couple of hours. My pork butt was done by 3:45, pulled it off with an IT of 196.
The brisket was meh, it was decent but my previous low and slows were better..may try another hot and fast but if it turns out meh again i'll just stick to the over night smokes. The pulled pork was great, couldn't even tell that it was hot and fast cept for the bark formation wasn't as pronounced.
and the brisket, with a hot and fast not much bark forms
I think i'll be smoking less this year..i really hate the clean up part heh
