Hey, I am doing my first brisket. Smoked for 4.5 hours, then turned up to 225 and wrapped in foil. Started around 8:30 am. At 3:30 IT was at 180, left to feed cows and tend to new calves, came back at 5 and fire had burned out. IT was down to 135. Refilled the pellets and started the grill again, only bumped it to 250. IT is still at 135.
Should I do anything? Keep cooking till 190-200 and check for ease of penetration?
Also had a salmon on for 3 hours on smoke and turned out wonderful. Have some pics of the initial smoking, but the kids had the salmon demolished before I got back from foiling the brisket so no pics of the finished fish.
