There recipe had no crutch or mid cook prep of any kind. Just get to temp at 203.

Does this work?

Yes it does work, it will make a great bark but it also takes longer to cook.

Thanks Thor8594! How long (guestimate)?

I'm in TEXAS, but I don't use the crutch. I just let it cook thru to 203. From my experience, it's about a 1 1/2 hours per pound give or take. Depends on how bad the stall is.

Thanks again - you are the man!

I did a 15lb Brisket last weekend and did not use the Texas crutch, just cooked through to 203. Turned out good and the Point (Burnt Ends) were great. It took almost 18 hours.

I am sure the recipe is great, but honestly, in Texas, most briskets are rubbed with nothing more than salt and pepper and cooked over fence post Oak.

Grew up in San Antonio, but lived in Austin during college....Used to hit Lockhart, Texas quite frequently....Blacks was my favorite over Smitty's and Kruez. Haven't been back that way in long time, but a lot of folks like Franklin's BBQ. I have his book.....it has recipes, but it's mostly about smoking. I've done briskets the way he does it, and honestly.....it's a very very good recipe.
