The long hold at a low temp completes the rendering process; results> pure butter texture,moist, jiggly brisket. I let mine drop to 180 then hold at 180 for 3 hrs and let it cool to 150. The lowest setting on My oven is 170 I chose 180. 30 deg hotter for a little less time IMO is a good approximation. Letting is rest to 150 allows it to relax and keeps it juicy.
so the warmer is set at 150? For some reason I was thinking they rested @ 200.

Most commercial warmers are set about 150. So it is an assumption on my part I have no specific knowledge of his exact procedures. hence the statement in my post

I figure the longer your needing to hold in order to maintain freshness the lower the temp you would want.

I cook brisket fat side down since I use vertical cookers, I also rest fat side down, but I'm wondering if there is any benefit to resting fat side up? Will the juices from the inner fat cap melt into the leaner meat? Heat rises so maybe this will help this along? Hmm..

FC up is something I've never tried, I may have to try it out - at least part of the cook. Got a comp. next week, so may not be the right time to experiment.. however, last minute changes have worked for me in the past. Do you go direct heat or use a heat shield?

Direct the whole cook,The fat cap is the heat shield in the beginning after wrapping the Butcher Paper takes it's place, When wrapped right there is two layers on the bottom & 1 on top.
