100% (and the queen is beef ribs). If you don't think so, you have not had good brisket. Done right it's BETTER than steak. Stole and RAN with this idea from @chopsaw: cut the brisket in half, then cut those in half. You now have 4 pieces. Make corned beef with flat, pastrami from point...
Hey MHSG, how long did you rest the full packer wrapped or in the oven on warm? Time held when internal temp is above 180*F determines tenderness in a brisket. Allows all that collegen to breakdown and get ooey gooey.
I don’t have a Costco near enough to me to shop there, but I do know that brisket quality can vary from place to place!
Have you tried varying your method at all, to see if you can get different results?
Unfortunately I was too busy stuffing my face to take a picture of the slices. The meat was a bit chewy, so not sure if cooking it more like a brisket is the way to go
...this at length over dinner at Morton's or Ruth's Chris next time you're in my neighborhood. I'm buying! :D
Here in Hawaii, on my island, brisket doesn't exist, to the best of my knowledge. This is the land of pork and chicken, mostly, as they're so many of them around. Many excellent...
Plate Ribs (Short Ribs aka Dino bones) are basically brisket on a stick. I smoke them the same as brisket. 1-2 hours on low for extra smoke then bump to 275º until probe tender. To me, your 6h 15m total time is the answer on why they weren't as tender as you were hoping for. IMO they may...

For those of you with an Aldi nearby, check your ad. Around me, they have point cut corned beef brisket on sale this week for $3.49/lb. limit 2. The ones I saw were around 2½ lbs. Can't buy any beef that cheap...
For AI slop, the summary on who, what and why of Brisket ain't wrong.
Brisket is indeed a challenge and consistent success does indeed mark a master of the craft.
A well cooked brisket is appreciated by anyone in "The Know".
And a good Brisket is a delicious treat, by no means subpar to...
Well now I'm at a complete loss.
I wrapped it in butcher paper and put it in the brisket blanket and placed it in the Que Crib. The IT was 165° F.
I pulled it from the QueCrib at 12 hrs and 23 minutes. When I removed it from the brisket blanket it was stone cold. How?? 😭😔
What in the hell...
