Sweetness. I have one resting on the counter right now. Got held up at church and it was at 205 by the time I got home. Twas wrapped so plenty moist. Trying to fend off the humanoids a bit longer so it can get "right."
Jerod Broussard It's at 203, and tender and some spots of the flat, but not tender in other parts (yet still ~203 or more). Do I just wait until ALL parts of the flat is tender and not worry about temp?
I just call it a rest in the Cooler! lol I actually have the cooler that is pictured by the definition of Faux cambro (the Blue one with wheels!) That is the only reason I get the Sunday paper so I have layers below and above the foiled meat!
I will admit, I THOUGHT I was in the very center of the thickest part and it was reading 203-205. I then started sliding my Thermapen out of the brisket a touch and it was suddenly 200. So, I learned that you really need to "finagle" it around to ensure you really are in the "center-center". More parts of the brisket are now more tender, so I'm feeling better about myself
Jerod Broussard you are truly an expert with briskets. We can all follow Amazing Rib's recipe and article, but may I request a post from you with your "secrets"? I mean, you can cook a Select and it turns out awesome. I'm working on a Choice now, and I'm barely holding on! HAHA!

Beverages - Is there really anything other than Guinness? Oh yeah, I forgot about tequila!
Freeze your au jus in and ice cube tray and then seal in zip lock or vacuum seal bag. Next time you are making a red wine sauce or a gravy you can nuke however many cubes you want.
So, we ate it. It was pretty average. Disappointing. It was sort of tough and definitely dry. Was hoping sous vide would be the trick.
Next time, maybe I SV it longer at a lower temp? And then inject the brisket with the purge after the SV bath?
I was surprised it took it to get to 205 for me to even think about taking it off the smoker. Thought it would be much lower than that since I SV'd it.
