Couple weeks ago I asked if wet aged beef cooked faster than normal beef. Today, I cooked ~2 months wet aged prime brisket. Pre-trim weight was little under 11 lbs. I didn't have to trim much. I applied the rub and injected beef broth into the meat side without thinking. But I like to cook my brisket fat cap up so flipped the brisket when I placed it on Big Kamado Joe this morning at 11:45 am. The Big Joe grate temperature was around 270 F. About an hour and half into the cook, I realized I should've have placed the brisket fat cap down since I had injected on the meat side. But I decided to let it ride. At around 2 hour mark, I placed the brisket into the foil pan and tightly covered it with foil. The grate temp was still around 280 or so and the brisket temp was around 162 F. My wife wanted some sweet potatoes so I placed some around the foil pan. The brisket cooked for another an hour and thirty minutes til 3:15 pm when it hit 205 F. It probed tender pretty much all throughout. I removed the brisket from the smoker and vented the foil pan for little over 10 minutes before wrapping the brisket and placing it in the cooler to rest. It's currently resting waiting. Total cook time for the brisket was 3 hours and 30 minutes.
10.74 pounds
Trimmed
Placed on the smoker fat side up at around 270 F
Brisket color at the 2 hour mark right before I placed it in foil pan and covered it. The brisket temp was around 162 F at this point when I checked with Thermapen. The grate temp was around 280 F. The small foil pan front of the brisket was mac & cheese. I ended up removing it after this picture because the large foil pan for the brisket wouldn't fit with the mac & cheese pan. I replaced it with bunch of sweet potatoes.
Hour and half later, the brisket was done at 205 F.
The finished brisket before I re wrapped to place in the cooler to rest. Total cook time of around 3 hours 30 minutes at around 280 F.
