    Really need some Brisket HELP thoughts!

    +1 this You want the smoke to kiss the meat as much as possible until somewhere around 155-160 IT.  If you're planning to wrap it, a good foil wrap works (known commonly as the "Texas crutch") once you're above that range, and will cook it faster, and then you can finish either back on the...
