Sous Vide Brisket

The result here is tender, melt in your mouth brisket. The long cook time and the low temperate result in the juiciest brisket ever. The rub is heavy on the pepper, so it has a nice bite to it, and is totally delicious. Definitely serve this at your next get together if you want to impress! NOTE: To finish in the smoker, add 3 hours to total recipe time. 53 hours total.
