   Well I did another high-temp brisket yesterday. Came out great and the smoke flavor was more pronounced then the last one. I think I got it figured out. I rubbed it with a “sonoran” blend. I started to get the smoker going around 9am and the meat was in by 10:30. At about 160 I pulled it out and separated the point from the flat. Re-rub the parts that were bare and they went back in until about 185-190. Then I chopped up the point for burnt ends and re-rub them and put some head country on them as well. The flat got some drippings from the pan below sprinkled on it and foiled. Both back in for a spell. The flat was done by 5 and the burnt ends stay in the smoker till about 6. I used mesquite lump with some hickory chunks as well

Here are the pics:

	I was thinking of seperating them a little sooner next time. Maybe around 145-150 that way they have a longer time to produce more bark. I think before the stall would be ok. I have always hated the part of the flat that has no bark. This is my first time trying this early seperating out but it worked out pretty good.
