I just bought a full brisket , uncooked of course to start smoking it. However I am noticing some brown patches and color in the brisket side. Is that bad ? Mist of the brisket is red and white for the fat but what are these brown colorations ? Should I trim it out ?

The brownish stuff is pretty normal. If it is in unopened cryovac, you are surely good to go.

Are you referring to the edge of the brisket? If so, the answer is here:

Chris, the article you referred to says don't bother cutting it off. Not me, I'm not eating that stuff!
