Getting ready to do brisket #3 this weekend, and I'm a little worried. #1 was fantastic, melt in your mouth awesomeness, but #2 was dry and a little tough. The only thing that saved it was the pot of homemade beans my wife made (because of all the bean juice). #1 was 6.3 lb flat, 7 hours cook time and I pulled it off at a temp of 215 (never pulled one off that high before). #2 was 7.3lb flat, 5.5 hours cooking pulled with a temp of 207. At first I thought I somehow overcooked #2, but looking back (cook was 10 Oct) it didn't pass the "knife in hot butter" test, so now I'm thinking it just wasn't done and I should've let it go higher like #1. Which seems wierd to me because the dozen brisket flat's I've done on my weber kettle were all falling apart at 205.

Just thinking out loud here. Hope everyone has a good weekend!
