I started and overnight BOB cook about midnight with a 7.5 lb. butt over a 7.5 lb. brisket flat. I foiled the brisket at 3:30 am when it hit 160 and now at 6:00 am, it is done. Problem is, I have a cookout that doesn't start until 3:00 pm. Any suggestions what I should do with the brisket between now and then would be greatly appreciated. Should I slice and reheat, should I reheat it and then slice?
Help...brisket flat done way early

I prefer reheating brisket whole. Cool well if you haven't already done so; chill. I reheat on a rack in a roasting pan or on a sheetpan, brisket drizzled with saved foil juices or with a little stock mixed with a touch of butter, tightly covered, 300 oven (or cooker), till the internal is 145-155, tops. Higher than that and it starts cooking again.
