Primals and pac-primals, which whole brisket falls into, are the best cuts to learn to smoke and to smoke IMO. Problem of course is that's always a lot of meat. OK so that's not such a huge problem.

As specific to brisket, smoking a real flat or point is no different than a whole pac brisket.

And the other brisket specific advice I can give is smoke it hot. If you are smoking brisket at under 225 you are doing it wrong IMO.

Yes, I would reiterate that smoking a whole brisket offers more forgiveness, IMHO.

As long as the heat doesn't rise beyond 200F I have not had any problems with that. These are still moist.
