From the files of I could fuck up Christmas: I grabbed a brisket yesterday to smoke overnight and take to a gathering at a friend's house this evening. I put the brisket on at about 10:30 p.m., set the BBQ Guru for 265F, and went to bed. Naturally, I forgot to shut down the other two vents I had open to get it up to temp. My probe alarm went off at 4:30 a.m. telling me the meat was at 180. I ran out to the WSM, realized my mistake when I saw the pit temp sitting at 305F. I wrapped the brisket with hot tallow drizzled all over it, and set the controller to 250F. Alarm went off again at 6:30 a.m. Internal was at 203, and it probed perfect. So I took it off and let it rest for a couple of hours. I put it in the oven on low/warm (145F) for a couple of hours, then moved it to a cooler while I cooked sausage. I've never cooked a brisket in 8 hours before. Bark wasn't superb, but it wasn't bad either. I assume it will be delicious, but I feel like such a dumb ass.
