I was working on my Brisket Saturday and I wasn't very pleased. I made a rookie mistake and pulled it just a little early (Bout 195) so it was just a tad bit tougher than normal, but I chalk it up to pulling it early plus it was a very small packer. It just took a little more tug to pull it apart than normal.

dont go by temp. go by feel

I have only done a few briskets, but this I already learned.

Yeah I normally start checkign it about 190 and check using the probe as far as tenderness. I guess I thought it was tender but definitely shoulda let it go just a little longer. Flavor was great though.
 
It looks like it was on it's way just fine. You can never get every cook perfect.
 
Thanks fellas. Got an IBCA contest this weekend. Any brisket tips?
