Smoked a brisket for 14 hours and it was actually good

Never done it before but watched like 5 YouTube videos and bought a meat thermometer. Started at 4am because I read that somewhere online. Turned out pretty tender and juicy honestly. The bark was a little burnt on one side but nobody complained when they were eating it. Gonna do this again next month. Anyone got tips on keeping the temperature more consistent without babysitting the smoker all day?

This is the kind of mission I live for. Started at 4am, nailed it on the first try. Did your family appreciate the effort or did they just demolish it and ask what's for dessert?

14 hours! That's dedication right there. YouTube university for dad skills is real. Bet the kids went crazy when they saw how good it turned out. Nothing impresses them more than dad doing something unexpected well.

That meat thermometer investment paying dividends. There's something about mastering something totally unnecessary but excellent that just feels good as a dad. Way to go.
