Guy at a comp told me I was oversmoking my brisket
He said my bark looked like charcoal, not seasoning. I cut my wood chunks in half and started feeding the fire less, now I actually get a pink ring instead of a gray mess. Has anyone else had to unlearn the "more smoke = better" thing?

That charcoal bark comment hits home, I ruined my first few briskets thinking more smoke meant more flavor too.

Told that guy his brisket looked like he was trying to start a campfire. Threw half my wood chunks in the trash and never looked back. That pink ring is way more satisfying than eating charcoal with a smoke flavor.
