re: Brisket is overrated

Good brisket isn’t hard to make, but it takes patience and practice. Thing about brisket is it intimidates a lot of backyard BBQers. Some go by time, others temp, bend, feel ect. Its a little of all those. The same for pork ribs, butt, bird and all the others. Brisket just takes longer. My biggest advice is don’t get too drunk when prepping the brisket and getting it started.
