Grabbed a corned brisket left over from St Patricks day, reduced to $2.99/lb. Turned out to be two pieces in the package which was kind of annoying.

Coated with cracked pepper and coriander, hot smoked until it reached 150 F. Then cooked sous vide at 79º C (175 F) for about 16 hours.

Chilled, sliced and heated for a few seconds in the nuke. The other chunk went (with a loaf of nice fresh european style sandwich bread to the neighbour who poked his nose out last night to find out what I was cooking. Nothing like the smell of stuff smoking to attract the neighbours.

    Good question - temp got a bit low so took probably 5 hours or so. Suspect it would have been shorter had I waited to be sure the temp was stabilized before I wandered away.
