If Pork Belly's, "until squishy" is vague
They physical qualities of brisket are:
1 Raw, cold wet and firm. About 35 deg.
2 Not done, tight and firm like an over inflated basketball, typically in the 170-195 range but it can go higher.
3. Squishy, Sags from both ends when held in the middle, you know you could shove a stiff finger through the middle. The meat is firm yet very yielding, shiny greasy bark, typically 195-205.
4. Too damn done, hard brittle edges, dry exterior very firm.
I hope this helps.
