Good Evening,
Planning a 15 lb brisket for the Super Bowl and I wanted to make up a batch of baked beans to put under the brisket to catch all the goodness that drips off. I'll be in an XL BGE at 225°, starting at 9pm Saturday night. I figure around the 8-9am time frame I would pull the brisket and wrap it in butchers paper to finish it up. My guess-timation is the brisket cooks for 18 hours before it goes in the cabrio, which gets me off the egg around 3pm and on the carving cutting board around 5:30 give or take.
So my question is, the baked beans probably won't benefit from being under a brisket wrapped in butchers paper, that means I need to have them under the brisket prior to wrapping it up. Would you lay out the beans under the brisket as it first goes on the egg, then pull them off 4 hours or so later? Or would you put the beans on later and let them spend the evening under the brisket until I wrap it? I guess I'm not clear on how long would be too long to have the beans in the egg at 225°. Ideally it would be convenient to put the brisket and the beans on at the same time then when I wrap the brisket 12 hours later I pull the beans off, but that might be too long.
Thanks in advance, you guys have great recommendations here.
