Default The Return... it's Bison Brisket

School has had me very busy the past couple of months, so I've been away from the Brethren. So, here is my reboot.

A friend of mine can't eat beef anymore. But bison is on the approved list of proteins. So I decided to give bison brisket a try. It's a pricey piece, and very lean.



I gave it a quick rub with Bovine Bold and a dusting of Black Ops,



then 2 hours on the Yoder running oak at 225.





Bagged and into the sous vide bath at 135 for 70 hours. I did separate the muscles before the sous vide, so they would fit in the bags.



A quick sear on the BGE at 600 and then rested before slicing.



Turned out incredible. Tender, tasty and healthy.





Turned out incredible. Tender, tasty and healthy.

If you have a local dealer and can get it reasonably priced, I highly recommend it.

Thanx for looking...

Most times I've seen a smoker/sous vide combo it's been sous vide first, cool/shock, then reheat on the smoker to fer the flavor...did it still have a good smoker flavor doing the sous vide second? I've done neither method so have no idea either way, just curious.

It had great smoke flavor. I wanted to get the smoke in the meat before bagging it. Then let the sous vide bath do the slow tenderization. The next time, I'll plan to the smoker at a lower temp (200 instead of 230) for a bit longer.

I didn't chill it. It cooled enough for bagging when I pulled it off the cooker.

This was the first time running brisket that way, but I've done beef short ribs at that time/temp with excellent results.
