The ChefSeps Smokerless Smoked Brisket recipe looks interesting
but to be honest when I eventually manage to get hold of a packer brisket, it's going straight in the smoker!
Doh! I only just realised you are in the States. I was waxing lyrical because this is incredibly cheap for the UK, where most items are a lot more expensive than the US.
You should check out the Anova, the Sansaire and the Nomiku immersion circulators which aren't readily available in the UK...
Once I'd let it have the extra 24 hours he texture was fine, like roast beef. It was a completely different beast from smoked brisket. I wasn't a very good piece of meat tbh, just a cheap rolled brisket joint made almost entirely from the flat, that I unrolled. There was almost no fat at all on...
Pulled one of the brisket pieces out of the water bath on Saturday evening after 72 hours.
Took it out of vacpac and dried it off, and seared it on the kamado at about 450ºC for a couple of minutes.
Unfortunately for me it was a bit tough and chewy, the collogen still hadn't broken down...

The kamado is fantastic, I use it at least once a week. It's fantastic for searing steaks at about 500ºC. I've owned various bbq's and smokers over the years and this is the one I use with any regularity.
I bought some beef short ribs at Makro the other day at about £4.50/kg. I bought a couple of racks that weighed 2.2kg in all. I decided to cook them yesterday
After a bit of searching around the internet for ways to cook them came across these
Aaron Franklin's video about beef ribs
