My brisket stall lasted 7 hours and I almost gave up
I was smoking a 16 pound packer in my offset last weekend, and the temp just froze at 165 for what felt like forever (it was actually 7 hours). I was sure I messed up the fire. I kept it steady, didn't wrap, and it finally pushed through. Has anyone else had a stall go that long without wrapping?

Why would you not just wrap it?

Spot on, @miller.susan. See this everywhere. People skip the simple fix, like wrapping something, and then act shocked when it gets messy. It's a whole mindset of avoiding the tiny bit of effort now. That choice always costs more time later. Drives me nuts.
