I'm gonna smoke my first brisket this weekend. Wanna start out low risk with a 4lbs flat.
Some questions though:

How would you cook this? Wrap or not and how long would it take?

The thickest part is about 2 inches and the thinnest part is 1 inch, fat cap included. Will this cause problems with drying out?

Lastly: how much of this fat cap do I need to trim beforehand

Thanks in advance, any other advice is welcome!
