Smoked a brisket for 14 hours straight yesterday

Woke up at 4am to get the fire going and didn't wrap it til the afternoon. Held it at 225 the whole time, used hickory and oak. It came out unreal. Daughter asked for second and third helpings which never happens. The bark was perfect and it just fell apart. This is the first time I've actually nailed it after like 6 attempts.

This is the kind of weekend mission I'm here for. Bet your family was losing their minds when they smelled that coming off the grill all day.

That's dedication right there, man. 14 hours holding 225 is no joke, especially waking up at 4am to get it rolling. Hickory and oak combo sounds perfect too. Did you let it rest long enough before cutting into it?

Houston here too and I gotta say that's some serious smoke mastery. My kids are always asking why I can't make brisket like the BBQ joints, and honestly it's because I haven't committed to the full day like you did.
