Default Pineapple Juice / Soy / Ginger Brisket (with pr0n)

My name is Terry... and brisket ain't easy for me. But, hey, I cooked one anyway.

I tried something a little different with my brisket today. I started on Tuesday by mixing up a batch of marinade:

1/2 gal pineapple juice
15oz bottle soy sauce
1 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
1/4 cup cider vinegar
1 tablespoon garlic salt
1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated

into the fridge it went.

On Wednesday night, I picked up a 12.5 pound packer, put it in a large ziploc with the marinade, and placed it into a cooler packed with ice until this morning.

Now for the pics:

The fire:

The smoke: (there really is smoke coming out of there)

Locked on:

Refreshments:

After 6 hours:

Probed like buttah at 9.5 hours:

Sliced after resting for an hour:

It was tasty, but a little dry.

Next time, I will...

1. trim the brisket before putting into the marinade (yeah, I knew better.)

2. reserve some of the marinade

3. heat up the reserved marinade to serve with the sliced brisket.

Thanks for looking!

But, if you trim it more, won't it be drier? Did the marinade not penetrate? Maybe inject it? It does look good

That sounds like a great marinade! Did you wrap it in foil while it rested?

What grade was it? I buy mine from SAMs and they turn out great all the time. My UDS makes better brisket than anything else though.
Judging by your pics, it would not last long in my house!

I am not going to trim more, just trim before I put it in the marinade. I think the membrane kept the flavors from penetrating the meat. Injecting would probably help - but I haven't tried it yet.

The pineapple/soy/ginger flavors are great. It is not my invention; it's a pretty close copy of the Jamaican Top Sirloin marinade at HOPS restaurant.

Choice grade - that's all I can find around here.

Thanks for all the feedback!
