Default My first Brisket on the WSM

This morning I picked up a 16 pound Brisket for $2.27 a pound at a local cash and carry store.
I mixed some Plum wood from a tree I have with the Kingsford briquets.
Now I just have to wait

Looks like a tight fit. Did you just kind of tuck it in there or trim it up a little more?

That is why I got the 22.5". I wanted my briskies and ribs to lay flat without issue.

Great looking brisket - can't wait to see the finished images.

Looks great, but after 6 hours, I'd think the bark would be a little more set. Might want to check those cooking temps, seems low to me.
