Freezer: How long is too long?

[oldschool]

I'd rather cook a year old prime brisket than a fresh select brisket.

I had frozen a second Costco prime brisket that I bought when the $/lb was good in 2021 but couldn't find time to thaw & cook, so it sat in our frost-free freezer for just about a year. Smoked it on my RT-590 last month and it was the best dang brisket I've ever cooked. I was surprised as heck, so I guess you never know until you throw it on the smoker!
