How much penetration did you get? How thick was the brisket. Picks of the brisket? How much trauma was there to the meat?

What was the temperature of the brisket, and the room temperature?

Do you condon shooting tasty meat? Did you eat it afterwards with a fine meal, followed by two fingers of scotch and a fine cigar? If not then, why not?

I didnt think to bring the camera wish I would have sorry, the brisket was about 3" thick and it was followed by 2 feet of wet phonebooks. I didnt think to measure the penetration but it went thru 2-3 very thick phonebooks. I changed some out as they got shredded and moved the brisket around as needed. The brisket when I held it up looked like swiss cheese. I also tried this into gallons of water and it mushroomed even better but I had jacket seperation 2 out of 3 times.

The brisket went bad before the ex date, the hole in the bag caused a black spot. Brisket is tasty but I didnt want to chance it. I did it outside and Id say it was ambient temp around 75 deg, I didnt break a sweat all day.
