These homeowners spent about $24,000 on standard cabinets. They turned a few of them sideways and added shelving to get a custom look. Instead of expensive tile or granite, they bought wire safety glass at a hardware store for $11 a sq. ft., had a glass shop cut it to size and then installed it as a backsplash.
1 Fresh brisket can be frozen for up to 12 months at best quality. 2  Be sure to allow plenty of time to thaw a frozen brisket. 3  Thawing in the refrigerator can take about 24 hours for a trimmed, first-cut brisket.
When the brisket reaches an internal temperature of 200 degrees, remove it from the smoker and immediately wrap it it a couple of clean towels. Leave the brisket wrapped up for at least an hour, preferably 2 hours. This allows the juices to soak back into the meat. This is referred to as resting the brisket. For most cuts of smoked meat the resting period is 15-30 minutes. Beef brisket is a much denser meat and requires more rest time.
