I eat so little brisket that when I do it's a real treat. Your brisket looks far better than just good.

There is a small hole in the wall BBQ joint in St Louis named Bogards. Opens at 11:00 and burnt ends run out quick. I could live on their baked beans.
My wife is not a big meat eater either. That means more for me.

We also smoke ribs and pork here at home, but never tried smoking brisket. Around here beef brisket costs as much as, or more, per pound them some of the best steaks.
I know what you're thinking, You just spent $50 on brisket and you don't want to screw it up. Instead, try smoking a small flat that hasn't been completely trimmed of fat. My grocery store butcher is pretty accommodating. Ask your butcher.
