Any Home Bakers Here?

I appreciate all that advice, but you missed what I was asking. I picked up a beef brisket at the store. I want to make something with it besides corned beef because I might get a deer this season.

Do you have a smoker Jared? If not, look online for how to smoke meat in the oven...smoked brisket is good stuff!

We smoke our beef brisket also. If you have a Weber charcoal grill, that will work nicely for a smoker.. Most grills can be used as a smoker, it just isn't as easy on some as on others.

Otherwis, give it a good dry seasoning rub, place it on a rack in a pan with water in the bottom. Seal it tightly with Aluminum foil and bake in a 300 degree oven for hours. (not sure of the time , it depends on the size of the brisket). Remove from oven and let stand for 15 minutes. remove to a cutting board and slice against the grain into thin pieces. Serve with BBQ sauce or just the pan drippings.
Some people say a 300 degree oven is not a safe temp, so you can go up to 325 if you want. But it needs to be low and slow.

I have used a Weber kettle as a smoker, for capon and venison. It took a lot of fussing around but the results were absolutely delicious. If I remember correctly the recipe I had said to cold smoke for a few hours then refrigerate for a day or two and finish roasting the day you want to serve it. It may have been a Sunset Magazine recipe. I think the process would work with brisket as well. Especially if you don’t want to spend the whole day tending coals.

I'm giving those split top buns a try this morning. The dough is rising now. I'll let you know how the recipe works out for me!

Change of plans. My mother just asked if we could have corned beef.

As long as the internal temperature goes high enough, 300F would be fine
