Picking up a brisket, pork ribs and turkey for Christmas eve dinner. Latest pick up time is 3:00pm. Dinner would probably be around 7:00pm. What's the best way to keep the meat moist and warm until dinner time?
If brisket is still hot when you pick it up, wrap it in tin foil, and then wrap in some old towels and store in a cooler until ready to serve. Internal temp should stay above 140 degrees.
If it needs a small adjustment and you have access to sous vide, that works well to heat without drying or giving a funky reheated flavor. I cooked a tri tip last weekend that was pulled at 5:30. Wrapped in foil, put in a cooler, then dropped in sous vide at 8 for 8:30 dinner.
