Beef Brisket, Has Anybody Tried This

A friend of mine told me the best way he has ever cooked a brisket is to smoke it at 275 or so until internal temp reaches 180 or so. Then he wraps it tight in foil, let's it cool a bit then freezes it solid. Then he thaws it, puts it back in a roaster oven and warms it back up to 180'. According to him the freezing process breaks down the tissue so it slices with ease and can be eaten with a fork. I am afraid to try it. Has anyone out there done this?

Travis is an award winning egger. The best I've ever had was at Salado... Centex. 14lbs gone in 10 min. Don't think he froze it.Green egg, dead animal and alcohol. The "Boro".. TN

Yeah, the freezing is kind of weird.
Centex sold his brisket recipe to Aaron Franklin for a million dollars. I would like to see what he says. I'm going to tape a packer to a spot light and call him right now. Stand by.Just a hack that makes some $hitty BBQ.... -

I thought freezing it sounded weird. Thanks for the feedback.

That one was good and I've made some not so good but I can tell you this....that is weird. don't freeze and don't put in a roaster oven. You can eat all brisket with a fork, unless you do it wrong. Smoke, rub, time is all you need.Keepin' It Weird in The ATX FBTX

Maybe skip the freezer and marinate in meat tenderizer? (j.k.!!)
