We went to the lake and made a terrible attempt at smoking. I haven't done a brisket or butt in so long I almost forgot how. I put the brisket in with the fat cap down (wrong), left the good seasoning at home in BA, didn't have the right wood, (I used hickory, however have begun to prefer pecan). Brisket was not bad, we ate the left overs Sunday, so I would say it could have been worse. Pork I had for lunch Sunday, a little Head Country will fix just about any bland piece of meat.

I guess the moral to the story is use a cook log and review it when you are in doubt. (And dont just put it on your computer and not use it like I did)
