Well, it really depends on the weight of the beef brisket in question and also how thick the brisket is. For instance, a thinner brisket will cook more quickly than a thicker brisket of equal weight as it will take the heat longer to penetrate into the center of the brisket.

However, as a general rule, it will take 1 hour of cooking time for every lb of weight of the brisket. Therefore, to point out the obvious, a 10 lb brisket will take roughly 10 hours.

Though you should never cook to time, when it comes to good BBQ you always want to be cooking to the correct internal temperature. With brisket, for instance, you'll typically want to take it off the pellet smoker with an internal temperature of just under 200 degrees, and it will be over 200 degrees once rested.
