Let a prime brisket get a little too done last night and it fell apart like a pot roast. Went to 204, cooled to 150 and then held at 150 for 8 hrs. Prime briskets often get probe tender at just under 200 for me.
Tender, juicy, and delicious so I'm not complaining. It was just a bit of a challenge to slice. Might have been easier if I had let it cool more but we were in a hurry.
BTW, prime brisket trimmings make really good chili!
