Yesterday I made my best brisket so far. I started at 8 am and I ended 12 hours later with a tender and juicy part of mouthwatering meat that melted right on the tongue.
Low and slow at highest temp. of 100°C / about 215°F in the kettle grill and the last 2 hours wrapped in aluminum foil .
I had two of them ...all in all it was 4kg/ 8,8lbs...for 8 persons and that was almost just under.
This was my fourth try to challenge that kind of meat and finally I won.. :-)

Thanks folks.

I was only able to get the flat. My butcher in Germany said he can't get it with the point. Hope to find a butcher who can deliver it with flat and point.

How much in lbs do you recommend for 8 persons? I cut away a lot of fat...about 2 pounds I think. So next time better 12 pounds?

Thx

Stefan
 
Stefan, brisket looks exceptional and as far as amount per person I always try, and succeed, to cook too much. I would be horrified if there was not enough. Thats just cooks for family and friends of course, nothing commercial.
