Another question, how much of the thin end of the brisket should I trim off?

There is a huge variance in thickness, how much should I take off?
So I just picked up a 13.25 pound packer that I'm going to smoke tomorrow. I've done ribs and butt but never brisket so I wanted to make sure I have my plan down solid. I also have a couple questions:
1. I was planning on smoking at 250 degrees but I've been reading that the lower and longer...
I have a 18" WSM and so far I have cooked a pork butt and 3 racks of ribs. Everything has come out delicious. I'm planning on smoking a brisket this weekend and I want to make sure I get it right.
When I cooked the pork butt, the Maverick probe at the top grate level was 25 degrees or so away...
