Holiday Christmas 2023 - Brisket
Couldn't load pickup availability
We use Certified Angus Beef® brisket prepared Texas style. Simply prepared by rubbing with sea salt and black pepper.
Texas style is so much more than just the simple rub, it is a process that takes mastering to produce the proper smoke ring, right level of moisture that results in that mouth watering brisket that we feel no other technique even comes close to.
We rub and let dry marinade our briskets overnight and then smoke at around 235 degrees consistently in our pit for 12-14 hours. We use post oak wood and a little bit of mesquite for extra flavor. Once the “stall” kicks in and moves a bit, we wrap them in pink butcher paper and finish them.
This is heaven sent, true Texas brisket.
Includes 2 bottles of our BBQ Sauce!
Planning your Meal
These briskets after smoking weight between 7LBs and 9LBS. We always strive to give you the best weight, the price is based on the 7LB weight.
When planning how many briskets you need, assume that each person will be 6-8 ounces with all of the other traditional fixings for the holiday. If you are planning on the brisket being a centerpiece, assume 10 ounces per person and real brisket lovers can eat a pound!
- 11-14 Servings per person as part of the whole holiday meal
- 9-10 Servings per person for a centerpiece meal.
To Prepare...
- Heat the oven to 275.
- Rip two pieces of foil that is big enough to cover the brisket.
- Put the brisket fat side up in the middle of the foil.
- Gather up the foil and pack it around brisket and leave a vertical 2" x 6" vent open on the top.
- Put on a pan that catches any fat if the foil breaks.
- It will take 1.5-2 hours or so to heat up. Use a thermometer (140-145 degrees Fahrenheit) or poke a small knife in the middle and feel the tip with your lips, if it is warm, it is ready. It is fully cooked and remember you just want to reheat!
I recommend watching the video on Masterclass's website where Aaron Franklin teachs how to slice the brisket in a video (about halfway down the page)
