Hello all
i've owned a BGE for three years and sell them at a local grill shop. i was wondering if anyone has advise on finishing off a brisket. i've been cooking it for a couple of hours, (its only a 2 pounder!!) still a little tough. any advice will be greatly appreciated. i've done bigger brisket before and have never had this problem.
Thanks

That small you might be better off to foil with a little broth. What's the meat temp now?

160, i have a foil pan and i could do some beef broth and foil it.

That will work then just cook until it passes the fork test. Probably just a couple hours but check it so it doesn't turn to mush. Also it doesn't take much broth.

Here is the recipe FlaPoolBoy provided after I had one of his great briskets. PS had some more at his superbowl party this year.
Beef, Brisket, FlaPoolMan
This recipe was given to me by my BGE salesman at Pinch-A-Penny here in Melbourne, Fl.
INGREDIENTS:
1 Whole Brisket
Mix:
1 12 Ozs Beer
12 oz Water
1/2 cup Brown sugar
10 Shakes Worcestershire Sauce
4 Cloves Garlic, Minced
1 Tbs Cayenne pepper
5 Shakes Tabasco, to taste
2 Tsp Onion powder,
2 Tsp Dry mustard.
S&P to taste
Heat and Serve:
2 Pkgs Au Jus, Mix as per package instructions.
Procedure:
1 One whole brisket with fat trimmed then cut in half (to fit in steamer trays later---8 X 10 which are 1/2 commercial tray size).
2 Rub the night before with your favorite steak rub, I use Montreal Steak Seasoning.
3 Place both pieces on the egg at 250-275 direct for 1 1/2 hrs each side.
4 Remove brisket pieces and put in steamer trays, 8 X 10 inches, dividing the liquid. mix and cover tightly with foil.
5 Return to egg at 250 indirect (they can be stacked on top of each other) and leave for 4 to 5 hours.
6 Remove and discard cooking liquid, slice against the grain and add au jus sauce (about 2 cups each container) and serve.
7 If precooking for the next day wait until you are ready to reheat to add the au jus.
8 Not the conventional way to make a brisket but it is really easy and the taste is great.!
