I've already chopped it all up against the grain, adding some bits of fat for moisture. It'll be sandwiches. Lots of sandwiches. I saw the recipe for spaghetti and I'll try that, but anybody find creative uses for slightly dry brisket?

Also, is $4.29/lb high?
 
Davis,

Some of my best brisket sammiches were the drier end pieces. Try some horseradish sauce - the kind premixed with some mayo. Maybe a slice of cheese melted on top too? Man I'm getting hungry thinking about it. I have 2 butts on today - still working through their plateu. I'm a few hours away from any delicousness!!!
