Here in Texas, the butcher paper wrap and then cooler hold makes it even more tender. It takes FOREVER but damn is it worth it..
Look great though! Tender enough?
ETA: I was late to the game and another already mentioned it.
This was my first brisket on this smoker. It is very tender. If I have time, I'll wrap the next one with a probe installed and put it in a cooler overnight with a low temperature alarm around 140F.
Nice - post about that one too. I need to make some brisket but my smoker got messed up in rain..
