Vent: My brisket flat went from 160 to 190 in like 20 minutes and then just stopped

I was cooking a 14 pound packer on my offset and hit the stall around 160 degrees, so I wrapped it in butcher paper. It shot up to 190 super fast, which felt wrong, and then it just sat there for over four hours refusing to budge. I checked my probe placement and fire management a dozen times. Has anyone else had a brisket just decide to take a nap right at the end?

Yeah, that "just stopped" feeling is everywhere lately.

It's like the whole world is buffering. You see it in traffic, in line at the store, even trying to load a simple webpage. Everything just hits this weird pause where nothing moves forward. Makes you want to shake something just to get the gears turning again.

Ever get that feeling gray_morgan mentioned while waiting for a stubborn burger to cook?
