re: Just finished my first sous vide brisket - I need some advice

No way people are consistently sous vide-ing briskets.

The sous vide fans will try any and everything in them. I'm not gonna begrudge any of them either. Do your thing man if that's what makes you happy. I just fail to see the net positive of it. Especially when I know that the product I can turn out in less time will probably be better. But to each his own.

Trolling is an art.

Maybe with some more practice you can catch someone on your hook.
I believe in you.

Not trolling at all.

I’m just a simple man that believes in simple cooking.

I still believe you need very few tools and methods to create some of the finest food on the planet

If you want to use slow cookers, micro waves, air fryers, sous vids or anything else you like

Have at it and have fun doing it.

When you create a dish that is better than the tried and true traditional methods

Please let me know.

I come from a background of traditional French cuisine and New Orleans cooking (includes countless varieties)

I do a lot of grilling

Not BBQ or smoking

But have watched so many shows that I know I don’t want to sous vide or reverse sear any meat.

There are many ways to slow cook that just can’t be beat by cooking meat in a plastic bag in water.


That’s my honest opinion

Not a troll.

But thank you for the compliment

P.S.

I’m going to take a piss outside in my backyard

Sous vide steak is the real deal and about the same time as a reverse sear.

So far everyone posting about SV briskets has said they're just ok. I'll take my hot and fast smoked brisket over nay sous vide.

Do not like hot and fast at all.

also hot n fast pork butt is super legit.

Have not tried it yet, but had a recent butt disaster. Wanted to cook one, but knew I did not have the time. Came up with a plan to slowly increase temps by the hour. Never got to my pull temp, but was edible.

Took the left over butt which was most of it and put it in the slow cooker with a bunch of stock all day. Damn that was good.

This is one cut of meat that is almost impossible to screw up.
