Changed my mind about aging brisket after a chat with a guy in Kansas City

My cousin, who runs a small shop there, kept telling me to dry age my briskets for at least 28 days. I always thought it was a waste for a cheaper cut. Last month I tried it on one, and the flavor was so much deeper, like a different piece of meat entirely. Anyone else find a specific aging time that really works for them?

What's the extra risk though? It's just more time in a controlled fridge.

Tried 35 days once and it was way too funky for me.

Texture gets weirdly slimy past 30 days.

Ain't it just adding more risk for a cut that's already tough to get right?
