I plan to serve a 15 pound brisket about 1:00 on Sunday. I would like to start the brisket tonight (Friday) around 10 PM. This should finish it later afternoon or evening Saturday. Can I wrap it in many towels and place it in a well sealed cooler till Sunday? FYI, cook at 225.

I smoke till I get the color I want then wrap in butcher paper (you can use foil) till I'm 200 ish degrees internal. (once you wrap you can do that in the oven also) Then let it rest down to about 150 internal. Then I stick it in the oven (still wrapped) at lowest temp (mine is 160) the oven will go and thats where it stays until it's time to eat.

Another great method is to smoke the brisket and vacuum seal the whole packer. Once it cools down first some of course. The you can refrigerate until needed. Take out and give it a Sous Vide bath at 150 deg for 1 hour (or 2 if frozen). Once you take it out it will be just like you removed it from the smoker. ZERO loss of moisture and flavor! Make is super easy to pre-smoke and have ready at a moments notice.1 Photo

He may be a bot... His post is poorly worded, but what he (it) posted is fact. A cooled down vacuum sealed brisket whole, or cut up in chunks then warmed in hot water (you don't have to have a sous vide machine) is the best way to preserve a brisket and serve it later, a year or more later and it still tastes just like you got finished "resting" it when you take it out and slice it up.

I used to do 10 briskets at a time for our company safety lunches. After they hit 165F or so, I would wrap in foil and when they were finshed, around 9PM the night before the lunch, stacked them all in a big cooler. They would still be screaming hot at lunch time the next day. Only problem was they ended up being a little over done but there were never any left overs!
