Got off work Saturday at noon and ran by the store and picked of a couple briskets. Butcher had them waiting on me a had a pair of nice ones picked out for me. When he went in the back to get them I saw those Johnsonville Brats and picked up a package of them to throw on the smoker too. Came home and started the fire on the Klose came back in the house and put mustard and then the rub on the briskets. Went out and put the briskets on and I was off to a good start. Then about a hour later the rain set in for a couple of hours. That was not the bad part. At 7 that night the interanl temp was at 165 so I wrapped the briskets in foil. Then at 8 I switch to pit over to gas and thought I was on cruise control. At 11 the internal temp was 190 but I did not like the way the thermo pen went in so I told the wife I was going to let the internal go to 195 and recheck. Well I fell a sleep and did not wake up until 1:30 and looked at the remote thermo and the pit temp was at 165 and the internal temp of the briskets was 177. I had ran out of propane and it must have been shorley after the 11 o'clock pit check. Pleas don't give me to hard of a time about the propane. By the way I forgot to take pics of the meat after I had cut it up and fixed my plate. Here here is a chart of the cook of the internal temp of the briskets and the pit.
