Full brisket 2.99/lb @ Kroger

[GAnewbie]

Dropped by the Kroger in my area (south of Atlanta), and they had full briskets for 2.99. Thought it was a good enough price to mention here.

I wish I we had a Kroger in NH

I picked up a 14lb brisket, and it will be my first ever. I know to cook by temp and feel, but should I expect a 14 hour cook if I am at 250 degrees? Anyone have thoughts on seasoning just SPG?

I would plan on at least 14 hours could be more. My advice would be to start it early and let it rest longer if it's done sooner. Rest in a cooler with a towel or in your oven set to its lowest temp. I rest mine at 170 in my oven and it works great.

That is a great price compared to what was out there.

You'll always remember your first.
