Brisket Temp question?

Options
I put my Brisket on at 12:15am. I've been cooking it at 250 degrees. I reached 185 degrees about an hour ago but it has dropped to 176 as of now. Am I in the stall or plateau stages. This has been my nemesis and I want to hit a home run finally with a Brisket. I decided not to foil through the cook until I pull to wrap and sit in cooler. I appreciate any help on the temp question. Happy 4th to you all....

    Welcome to the stall. Relax, grab a drink, and enjoy the ride.

    Regardless of temp, when you can probe the meat and it feels like butter it's done.
