Hardly, I'm just crazy enough to try any thing and personally don't see why people say Brisket is so challenging. I find perfect ribs to be a challenge. As long as the brisket is trimmed properly, it sure doesn't seem to difficult!
Good to know. Speaking of ribs. Just put mine in. 3 hours smoke 1 hour in foil with homemade bbq sauce? How’s that sound.

Also. Is there such a thing as overcooking your brisket? It’s been in foil for a few hours now. But it’s sitting at 190 and I’m planning on letting it rest for 2 full hours.

You'd need to really try to overcook a Brisket I'd think. As for Ribs? I just follow 3-2-1 at 240f. As long as they reach a safe temp, they're good to eat..

Brisket is full of fat and collagen, it'll be fine. Personally I only rest stuff a half hour or so. Then it's time to eat it because no one likes to wait!

I definitely appreciate all the tips! Last time I did ribs, I did 3 hours of smoke and 1 hour in sweet baby rays (cheating I know) and they were the best ribs I’ve ever had! I’ll give that a shot and next time I’ll do the 3-2-1.

I actually kept the foil juices from last time to reuse, I hope they'll be more concentrated now and have a better effect, but get them pics up when ya pull the brisket lol

Haha I will! When I wrapped it in foil it had such a beautiful crust on it. I wanted to eat it right there haha.
 
Did you drop the ball on the pics?!
I sure did lol! Turned out great! Only thing I’d change is getting a piece of meat that was consistent in its thickness. The thinner parts were a little bit dry but still delicious. The bark was beautifullll haha
