What is the caveat about not using a choice grade brisket in a high heat cook? What can happen? I'm a little short of time and so I thought I'd do the high heat. This will be my first brisket on the WSM.
 
They work. Choice is what I get from BJ's all the time. Never heard of not cooking a brisket high heat just because it was choice.
 
Some people think the relatively poor fat distribution in a select grade brisket makes a high-heat cook particularly attractive. But just because you COULD do your choice cut low and slow doesn't mean you have to.

Personally, I don't see so much difference between the two grades that one warrants different treatment than the other. High heat seems to work well on either.
