Here's a great link to an article back in March 2015 discussing brisket cooking

Or maybe wagyu.


If you have the cash, go for it! Many of the big competition cooks use it these days. I'll stick with prime as I would melt my grill down into a yard gnome and take up origami if I screwed up a wagyu brisket.

Thanks for that. Got some awesome advice in there. I thought this was interesting:

quote:

At one, campers blind-taste slices of brisket from different aluminum pans and score them as a test of different grades: Select, Certified Angus Beef, Choice, Prime and Wagyu. Not surprisingly, Prime and Wagyu tie for first, while Select places last. But in something of a stunner, the difference is minuscule, only a half-point separating the top score (6) from the bottom (5.5).



And I learned why Aaron likes butcher paper over aluminum foil:

quote:

Wrap your brisket in foil after about four hours. Even better: butcher paper, because, unlike foil, it breathes.


Makes sense.

No kidding. I think I'll stick with prime too. Same reason.
