I think this is my 4th brisket. Might be sacrilegious to some but opted to break the packer down into hunks. I can still see the fat and collagen pouring out while I sliced it. First time that ever happened to me. Be nice if it happens again.

Mmmm looks good! I can see you have some point muscle in there. The point is magic and I think that is where a lot of your gooey goodness is coming from :D
Just keep an eye out for any hunks that are 100% flat muscle. You may want to switch techniques so it doesn't dry out since the Flat is the problem child.

I'm with you. I cooked the world's best brisket... once. I'm not exactly a quitter, but I've moved on the less expensive cuts to ruin.
I recall when brisket use to be $0.79lb.

I would do back flips if I could find it under $3lb these days.
