So I start it at 1030pm last night.  I saw the temperature rising fast once again like it did last time.

Once again to my understanding it was a poor probe placement into the flat.  I went to bed anyhow but I strategically set the internal temp to turn off at 200 degrees instead of 190 so that if the placement was wrong it would not have been off for that long by 9 am.

So the temp obviously went off shutting off the machine, my girl checked it at like 730 and it was still on at that point so not terrible for just an hour.

I wake up go outside at 9am to it beeping, I was trying two things this round, fat side up and wrap in foil with some apple juice inside at around hopefully 165 degrees, but its 170 no big deal.   My last brisket was very dry.

So I just replaced the probe and it was what I thought, internal meet temp is 170 degrees.  I wrapped it in foil and put apple juice inside.  I will keep you guys posted how it comes along.

So everything came out amazing LOL........seriously.........here was me making burnt ends, I didn't get a photo of the burnt ends cooked though :( too busy eating lol

The flat was moist with juicy meat.  The burnt ends I made out of the point were tremendous.  Next time I will be wrapping sooner.

I caught the meat around 180 degrees.  I cooked it wrapped up to 200 degrees internally.  My friend who does tournaments told me to cook it higher and it came out sooooo much better.
