Shitty trim (deckled fat basically ran through my entire point). SPG with a layer of pepper first. Better knives coming for Christmas from the missus but overall I can't complain when dealing with a 10.5 lber. Will definitely find something 14 lbs + for the next one. Alarm set for 4am with plenty of whiskey to drink.

    Doing a brisket for the first time sucks. I’ve only done 2 and I stress most about the trimming. I’m no expert but the fat has rendered down great on both briskets so I would stress too much about it. Good luck! Post the results!

    Look for 18+ lb.. the bigger brisket smoke better
