WOW! is right!
That brisket looks great and it's huge, too
Thanks for sharing with us...are there any leftovers?

The brisket was 10.75 lbs. I have two others in the freezer --- one is 13lbs. I got them in a US Walmart Supercentre for $1.89US/lb. (I live in Ontario and a full brisket is hard to find). They were packer cuts, and I didn't trim them or anything. Just put on the rub, let them sit for about 20 hours and in they went. I never thought it would turn out as good as it did.

Sounds like you are in brisket heaven for at least a couple of days with more in the fridge.  :)

So you left the brisket whole?
You even left the thick vein of fat that separates the point from the flat?

Yeah... I was planning to trim (and even separate) but the instructions kind of got away from me. So I left it whole. A lot of the fat rendered out.
