Have a small brisket on smoker. Has been on 6 hrs @ 250. Temp is right but seems a little tough. Have read that this is just a stall and that I should leave it on as it will tender up.

Should I be patient or take it off?

internal temp is what you need to monitor.

Cook to internal temp of 195 then pull it to let it settle.

The stall is when the internal temp hit about 160 and just stays there, at that point either leave it there and keep smoking or wrap in foil and continue cooking in smoker or even oven, wrapping in foil will ruin any bark you have but will yield a very juicy brisket

Always cut against the grain

Internal temp is only 160.... It is a thinner cut and a smaller one. Just seems like it is over cooking but I will trust the process

Wrapping in butcher paper works too

Wrap it tight in foil and put in oven till it hits 200

Be patient. That internal needs to be 200.
