We smoke our beef briskets all night long for about 14 hours until they are fork tender. Our brisket dinner platter comes with both cuts of the brisket*. The moister "point" cut which is cut into chunks and the leaner "flat" cut which is sliced then lightly sauced. *We occasionally do sell out of one or the other cuts. If so we will let you know.
