I had just finished the table for the egg and decided to test if for our July 4th cookout. I finished cooking 30lbs. of butts on the Oklahoma Joe and finally got the fire started at 09:00PM and put a 18lb. brisket on about 09:30PM. got the temp steady @ 250 about 12:00PM. The lid of the egg was not opened from 09:30 until 06:30 the next morning. The Internal temp of the brisket was just over 200 and looked like this:
Wrapped it in foil and left in on for 2 more hrs. and stored until served. After the constant attention the offset needs this was the easiest and probably the best brisket I have smoked, and the 2lbs of lump it used is a lot better than the 40lbs used in the offset. I think the egg will take the place of the offset unless space is an issue.
