Hey guys. Just to clarify, I'm smoking on a pit boss 820 pellet grill. I'm planning to smoke my next brisket and could use some pointers. The first brisket I smoked was 12 lbs. untrimmed. I put the brisket in and 10PM , smoked at 250 and wrapped at about 4 AM. A mistake I made was probing the point and not the flat, which read 170. At 6 AM it was at 203 so I took it off and let it rest for 4 hours. In the end, the flat was tender, but dry, however the point had a great smokey taste and was both tender and juicy. Any pointers for my next cook so that I can keep my flat nice and moist as well? (A little side note, I kept a water pan in there.)
