Adding pics: I had a couple of prep pictures and a friend over for dinner took the one where I've cut into the brisket and am holding it.
I purchased a couple of whole brisket from porter road a few weeks ago during their sale and I smoked a 10.5 pound one yesterday. Sorry, no pictures. A nine hour cook in my PBC using A DigiQ from BBQ Guru's ti keep temps at 275. I wrapped in pink butcher paper with some beef tallow spread on it (ala Jeremy Yoder from Mad Scientist Barbecue) when temps reached 170-185. This was after about 7 hours of cook time. Pulled at 9 hours exactly, temps from 203-212 (Accidentally let it go a little longer than I wanted to).I rewrapped with butcher paper and tallow as before, wrapped in foil, a towel, and then into my faux camber. Rested for four hours. Serving temp was 155. The point was incredibly moist and melted in your mouth like butter. The flat was a little dry in a couple of spots, but family thought it was great. I have another Porter Road brisket in the freezer. Am experimenting with ordering brisket on-line to see how they compare with the prime briskets I can get at Costco. Creekstone Farms in in the list. I may be able to get some through a friend 'wholesale'. Will keep you posted.
