My brisket stall lasted 8 hours yesterday and I'm not mad about it

Everyone says a long stall is a problem, but mine hit 165 and just sat there, letting the fat render perfectly. Anyone else find a long stall actually helps sometimes?

My last stall went 9 hours and the bark was unreal, like beef jerky but better.

A nine hour stall like @dylan413 mentioned really lets the smoke penetrate. That deep bark you get isn't just surface flavor, it's a full ring of smoky goodness. The key is keeping that thin blue smoke rolling the whole time, not just at the start. That patience turns a good piece of meat into something special.

Long stalls give the fat time to get so good.
