Alohapiggy Posted June 21, 2019 Report Posted June 21, 2019 (edited) Cooking my first brisket on my KK. I’m gonna try Kosmo Q brisket mop when I wrap. Edited June 21, 2019 by Alohapiggy 2
Pequod Posted June 21, 2019 Report Posted June 21, 2019 Nice! Doing a brisket on Sunday with my sister and niece and her kids in town. Have never mopped a brisket. What’s in the mop?
Alohapiggy Posted June 21, 2019 Author Report Posted June 21, 2019 (edited) I’m going to wrap it in foil and pour the mop/liquid inside the foil. I’ll it let finish off and use the residual juices as a sauce. Edited June 21, 2019 by Alohapiggy 1
Alohapiggy Posted June 21, 2019 Author Report Posted June 21, 2019 It’s wrapped and back on the grill
tony b Posted June 21, 2019 Report Posted June 21, 2019 Would like to see pics and hear about how it worked out for you when it's done?
Alohapiggy Posted June 21, 2019 Author Report Posted June 21, 2019 I’m not great at slicing a brisket but with it being steamed in foil I know will be tender. I’ve read so many good reviews about this brisket mop I had to try it. I’ll keep y’all posted. 1
tony b Posted June 21, 2019 Report Posted June 21, 2019 If it's a full packer cut, with both the point and the flat, then each part is sliced differently, as their grains aren't aligned. After the brisket has rested for at least 30 minutes (hold in a cooler), then separate the point and flat to slice. Cut off a corner and look at the direction of the fibers in the cut piece. If they look more like circles than lines, you're on the right track. If not, turn the meat 90 degrees and slice in the other direction and check again.
Alohapiggy Posted June 22, 2019 Author Report Posted June 22, 2019 Thanks for slicing tip. The brisket is cooking a lot faster than I expected. I’m normally drunk by the time the brisket is done. Drunk me just cuts away. So I’m sober now hopefully I’ll be sober by the time I cut the brisket. If I’m sober the slicing should be a little nicer. 4
Alohapiggy Posted June 22, 2019 Author Report Posted June 22, 2019 It’s done and it’s probing like butter. I opened up the foil to let the steam out so it doesn’t over cook. It’s re-wrapped and I’m gonna let it rest for an hour
Alohapiggy Posted June 22, 2019 Author Report Posted June 22, 2019 Brisket is tasty. The mop made it super tender I had a hard time slicing. The mop gave the brisket a really beefy flavor. 2
BonFire Posted June 22, 2019 Report Posted June 22, 2019 Used exact some mop a couple of days ago, mixed mine 50/50 with coke....came out a treat, gotta luv those burnt ends
Alohapiggy Posted June 22, 2019 Author Report Posted June 22, 2019 Next time I’ll use more mop and a little less liquid/broth. I was expecting to have left over for chili but there’s nothing left. 2
Alohapiggy Posted June 22, 2019 Author Report Posted June 22, 2019 @tony b thanks. I really like brisket in my chili. So with no left overs I’m definitely cooking another brisket very soon.
