Briskets are just ideal for smoking, as they have a bit of fat on top
and some through the middle that make it ideal for cooking for a long
period while losing the fat as it slowly melts awat and into the meat.

I've never crocked one. Thanks for sharing.

Brisket is fairly inexpensive in our area, it is around 99¢ per pound,

Brisket is fairly popular around here, these prices could be a loss
leader to get you into the store.
