Need help

[jrneal]

First brisket cook coming up and trying to trim. I have trimmed the fat but there is a large ridge in the meat. Do I cut that ridge out or cook it as is

That's normal.  Leave it.  I just trim the fat down on the outside.  See below for a diagram of the brisket.

Correction:  NOW I see what you are talking about.  Trim the fat beneath it so it can lay flatter, then tie it down.
