6 year user of Model 3 but 1st Brisket ever.

I have had my #3 for years and use it a lot, but, I have never done a brisket and tomorrow I will change that! My plan is to get a full packer at Costco, Prime if they have it, if not then choice. I will use pecan or pecan cherry mix. I have read a lot on here and other forums. Some trim cap others don't, some use a concoction for a rub others use SPOG which I will probably do. I have a Auber with WI-FI so cooking to temp will be easy but what temp? And flat and point different temp? Remove point and save for burnt ends or let it ride with the flat.
Any comments would be appreciated.

I do fat side down; trimmed fat I lay across the top. 225 till the meat hits 190ish. Wrap and into a cooler till eating time. I use Costco prime, never separate and leave the packer whole. I start my briskets and butts around midnight then off to sleep. No worry.
