Low & slow, without the guessing

It’s hour six. The brisket is stuck at 161°F.
Is something wrong?

No — that’s the stall, and BBQAdvisor is the app that tells you so. Plan the cook before you light the smoker, check in when the probe has you second-guessing, and find out afterward why it came out the way it did.
