Going to do my first brisket on the Mak 2* this weekend, planning to cook it tomorrow then eat it on Sunday. Don't have a whole lot of experience with pellet cookers, so I'm crowd sourcing the cook. I'm thinking about doing a couple hours or so on the "smoke" setting which is about 180*ish, then bump it up to 250* til it probes like buttah....not sure if I'd wrap yet, and maybe I'd set it more like 225* and run it til it's done, though that's lower than I've cooked on anything in quite a while. I don't necessarily care how long it takes to finish since I can be off doing other things while it's doing its thing.
Brisket is a Creekstone Farms "choice" grade. 11.2lbs starting weight, trimmed 2.7lbs off to get it where it's at, 8.5lbs raw cooking weight. Injected it with Minor's Beef Base+ Au Jus, basically the Myron Mixon injection. Will probably do a SPOG based rub but I'm not set on that.
