Select a well-marbled cut of meat from the menu. The fat will keep the brisket moist and add flavor to the final product, keeping the brisket moist and adding a touch of flavor. Season it well and give it a deep sear.. This will lock in the juices. Cook it slow and cook it long. Cook it slow and cook it long.
It can be cooked in the oven or over indirect heat over charcoal or wood. To enhance the flavor, oak, pecan, hickory, or mesquite is often added to other hardwoods. Brisket will be fork tender when it is fully cooked and is then served with or without a sauce.
If you have the grill on the grill, make sure you have some sweet corn and cauliflower as well. Both love the grill and they also do a good job with brisket. There are several recipes on the internet that will please all sorts of tastes. Coleslaw and pasta salad also go well with brisket. This holiday, try fresh fruit. Watermelon will be available in season depending on where you live, but a fresh Waldorf salad would be perfect, too.
