First Brisket cut

So this is a post response to the first brisket post. I made a lot of people ask for the cut, and here it is. Please let me know your thoughts and opinions. I’ll also link the first post. So you guys know how I cooked it, I would appreciate some advice for future cooks as well. Also, don’t make fun of the knife. It’s the only knife I could find, and I sharpened it with a work-sharp precision adjust if you know, you know.

Update: holy hate, you guys are bunch of low levels all your doing is hating for me wanting to squeeze the juices out a bit and put a show for my family you guys really got nothing better to say or do? A simple small piece of advice without shitting on me what I use to cut or anything would be great. You guys are probably the most discouraging people I have ever come across. Im asking how it looks and if theirs any improvement and you guys are dogging on me for SQUEEZING??? for my knife, gloves and because im shirtles???? I guess i cant even be in my own home shirtless. Dont hate on the mod because you guys cant control your low T-levels, mods your doing great! I can see him deleting every single comment because no one knows how to say anything nice or give actual practical advice without sounding like a hurt soy boy.

First Brisket

I can’t tell if I did good or not. I think I was too smoke blind. I literally couldn’t tell the taste, but everyone swears it was amazing. Then I tasted it the next day, and they were right. It tasted amazing. Is smoke blindness a thing? Or am I just slow? I smoked it overnight at 200, then it hit a stall at like 150. I wrapped it in butcher paper with the rendered beef fat I got from the brisket itself and increased the temp to 250 (my smoker jumps from 200 to 250, no in between). Once it hit 201 internal, I pulled and let rest in the smoker while the smoker was off in the BLAZING SUN because I had no cooler and for some reason we got no fu**a** oven. But anyways, it came out good. I think I would appreciate advice if you guys see something I don’t.

Planning on smoking a brisket tomorrow (05/08/26) and trying to have it ready for dinner on 05/09/26. My issue is that my smoker doesn’t have 225 it only has 200°F and then jumps up to 250°F.

I’m trying to figure out the best game plan here. Should I start the cook at 200 overnight and then bump it to 250 in the morning? If so, around what internal temp or what time should I increase it?

I’m aiming for a good balance between bark, tenderness, and actually having it done on time without drying it out. Probably going to do a full packer brisket.

Would appreciate any advice from some people with experience.

What’s up, I’m 23, on EST, and I’m mainly on PC. Right now I’ve been grinding Overwatch and Dead by Daylight, but I’m really trying to find more people who are actively playing DBD. I already have a solid group for Overwatch (and I usually play that with my girlfriend), so DBD is where I’m looking to expand.

I’m in North America, so I’d prefer people around here for better ping and schedules. Age wise, I’m keeping it 18–28 just trying to stay in a similar range.

I’m chill and easy to talk to, but I’m not looking for dry, awkward, or weird interactions. If we’re gaming, I want good energy, actual conversation, and people who can match that vibe. Doesn’t mean you have to be loud or anything, just be normal and engaged.

Not gonna lie, this is probably my last attempt on here before I just go ghost, so if you’re down to run some games and actually build a solid duo or group, hit me up.
