Chuck's brisket recipe
Gary and I had dinner with Chuck and Nickie last week and Chuck described the brisket he had recently grilled. Sunday would be a good afternoon to prepare it since it takes several hours of cooking and it was too darn hot at the lake. I got a 3.6lb choice brisket but Chuck had told me to go for Prime. I didn't have the option so went with what was available. Chuck said to heat the grill to 350 degrees and brown on both sides for 10 minutes. I ground sea salt and pepper and put a little of my rub on it prior to browning. Chuck said to remove from the grill and put on the rub. It was important to wrap it tight and I put 3 layers of Heavy Duty Reynolds wrap around it, added the plate setter and put it back on the grill. First time to use the plate setter and not having used it before all I can say is it worked. I reduced the temperature to 250 and let it cook for 3 hours. It was so incredibly juicy. My dad cut it opposite of the grain and we added a bit of the juice to it. Yum! I also prepared fresh green beans with vidalia onions and vegetable broth. I cooked them on the gas range for 1 1/2 hours. We also had Near East Couscous with Basil and Herbs along with a fresh salad. Wonderful meal and successful grill.
