Another Brisket Pork Butt overnight Sous Vide Rest

[KuKuPuffs]

Hello my BBQ Family

I've been perfecting my sous vide rest technique. This time I'm going to use the sous vide overnight hold to continue to cook the meat by setting the temperature at 165F instead of 150F in the past.

Some of my past tries

This time I did the following:
1. Smoke the Brisket (11lbs) and Pork Butt (7lbs) to only 180F at 285F without wrapping. This took about 7 hours
2. Rest until 150F
3. Vacuum Seal and into the Sous Vide at 165F from roughly 4pm until 12 Noon the next day (20 hour rest)


I want to say this is the best brisket and pork butt so far. Super moist. The meat was glistening and the pork was easily shredded with one hand.

Vacuum sealed and ready to go into the sous vide bath at 165F for 20 hours




Moist, glistening, oozing juiciness.

Thanks and kudos, KuKu. These look awesome. Do you “finish” them ever post-SV back on the smoker to re-fix the bark, please?

I have not. The name of the game is for me to be able to hang out with my guests and whenever they are ready to eat, get the meat out of the sous vide, slice and eat. Not looking to get my hair and clothes smelling like Smoke again for the day.

Honestly at this rate, one day when I do make a brisket with crispy crunchy bark (foil boat method), my taste buds will be so confused
