You want to use what is called a "faux" cambro - wrap the brisket in foil, then in a couple of towels, and put it in a cooler to keep it warm. I've gone straight from the smoker to a cooler in this manner with 16 pound brisket at 205F, and it was only down to 160F 4 or 5 hours later. A smaller one with less thermal mass probably would have cooled a little faster.
If you need to hold it longer than 4 hours or so, I would suggest a warm oven - mine has a low temp fo 170F, which is fine for holding butts, briskets or ribs wrapped in foil.Last edited by jfmorris; March 12, 2020, 10:06 AM.

You cook brisket to probe tender - I monitor the temperature in the thickest part of the flat, avoiding the deckle (fat layer between flat and point). You may get a few degrees of carry over cooking, but I don't pull from the pit until probe tender, which varies by the hunk of beef - sometimes its 195, I had one hit 208 before pulling it. I've yet to have a dry brisket. I do crutch (wrap in foil) AFTER getting through the first stall - usually I wrap around 170F or so.
