Default 18 pound brisket

Picked up an 18 pound brisket today. Had them seperate the point from the flat - flat weighs in at 12 pounds. Looking to serve it for supper tomorrow night - what time you guys figure I should put it on - I would like it to have some cooler time.

Thanks! L-M

That's huge! My local Sam's Club (where I buy most brisket) only carries flats.

The biggest one I've ever seen there was about 6.5 pounds.

That's not a brisket, that's a whole cow.

I'd vote for the 18 hour time frame.

Just cook it a little hotter. It will be done in time. If them Texans can do a 9# briskets at 450 degrees in 4-5 hours, I'm not beyond cooking mine at 300-350.
