Brisket Remains

[trolly]

Today gave me a chance to see how my modifications worked (gaskets around the smoker and firebox doors and a deflector plate); seemed to hold temperature better but I don't think I used less fuel...I did use a previously untried lump. Would you all let me know if you think there is too much bark on the brisket.

Agree.......can't get too much bark. Some kcbs judges love bark. In TX, I'm not sure how much weight it pulls if you are talking comps. But then again, we use the Texas crutch.:)
