Brisket Again-Getting better each time (Pic Heavy)

12lb packer trimmed down to about 10. Salt and pepper rub. Oak for smoke. 225 with my Smobot holding it steady overnight. On at 10:30pm and wrapped in foil with some beef broth at 6:30. Probed rough until 205, at which point I pulled and separated the point and flat. The flat was FTC'd and the point cubed for burnt ends. The point was at least half the total weight so I couldn't resist. I had the burnt ends on for another 3 hrs total. I just keep them going until they looked good. I've included a jiggle video as well as just one slice pic showing how tender it was. A little dry, but I think I was still my best yet. I may have tried to FTC a little long also, as dinner was punched back a little for other reasons.

Next time I'm gonna keep all the same but leave out the broth in the foil, as there was easily another 1-2 cups of juice that rendered out. I'll try to aim done time just a little better as well.
