IIRC, about 157*. The collagen is melting at this temp. Yes the stall can seem like forever.

thanks guys. Shooting to eat around 7:30 or 8 and was thinking I should be closer to 195 at 5:00. I am going to ramp up the temp a little to help it along.

don't rush it, i've made that mistake too many time where i bump the heat up and then i lose moisture. I personally would rather eat later and have great brisket. Now my wife on the other hand....

Keri C. likes to say about the stall " that is when the magic is happening". Best to just relax.

It could stall right there for 3-4 hours sometimes.
If it is NOT going to be done in time and you have figured your time-temp calculations correctly, foil it with moisture in the foil and crank the heat.
I do my entire cook at 375 and I get the BEST most MOIST Brisket every time!
Put it in an aluminum pan and add a Beer. Then cover the pan with foil. Then you also have all of those wonderful juices, too.
That's just how I do them.
