Salt the brisket ahead of time
Made the second one with more salt and left out the paprika altogether. Much better. After slicing it I gave a small sprinkling of kosher salt. Which leads me to my original question about salt. When it comes to steak I feel fully comfortable with osmosis with salting 24 hours prior. But does... -

Salt the brisket ahead of time
It was extremely windy. So I went for the oven. All the advice really paid off. The next one will be smoked. I could tell how much better it would be with the smoke flavour, Just thinking of how I do my ribs and lamb legs. But i have to say it was still good. I tried to take some close ups so... -

Salt the brisket ahead of time
OK, maybe Ill try. You make a convincing argument, if the flame blows out ( it has happened before, even on highest temp. ), then Ill just swear inside my head ( or out loud ) and move it to the oven. As I said, Ill post pics once its done. Thanks again -

Salt the brisket ahead of time
Ya gas grill, and I have a smoke box, but it will be 46 degrees outside ( 8 celsius ), and windy, and I cant shield the grill for the wind because I have a natural gas line hooked up to the grill on the upper deck. This is why I am going to buy a dedicated smoker this spring that I can use on my... -

Salt the brisket ahead of time
Um, well I've made pot roast, but never with an actual brisket. SO to be honest, I don't know. I realize without the smoke, it wont really be a smoked brisket, but I guess I just want it to be delicious. The upside of treating it like a BBQ is that I will feel much more confident when I... -

Salt the brisket ahead of time
Noboundaries that's a pretty good idea. Especially for stew. I've never been crazy about beef stew. So this may make it much better. But this brisket is being made for guests on my wife's side of the family who I know from experience wont want a chili or a stew. Your false positive theory makes... -

Salt the brisket ahead of time
thx jbellard. I will post some pics. This meat really is the final frontier for me. If it works out I will smoke one when it gets warmer outside. If I let it sit in oven at 170, does that count as the rest ? Or would I still need to do a room temp rest ? -

Salt the brisket ahead of time
Hey Guys thanks a lot. That was pretty quick. Even though it's only 2 pounds, you are saying it will take a really really long time ? And just to be extra clear, you guys are saying I can lower oven to 170 after its really tender and it wont start becoming tough or dry ? Thanks. I think I will... -

Salt the brisket ahead of time
Hi, we have a point end cut only brisket of about 2 pounds. Its is still too cold ( and windy ) to do this outdoors, so we will be doing this in the oven. 2 or 3 more weeks from now I'd like to try and smoke the same thing. I've grilled ( and smoked ) many things before but never have I made...
