Moved the brisket from the freezer to fridge Wednesday at lunch and was planning on smoking it Saturday but something came up. Is it safe to keep it in the fridge till Friday and then smoke it or do I need to cook it immediately? I'm seeing 3-5 days...

Thanks & Gig'em!

Is it still in the cryo bag? I think it would last that long if not longer. It goes a week in the grocery bin doesn't it?

Frozen on Wednesday then 10 days in the fridge? I think you are ok. I'm surprised it was even thaw enough Saturday.

Cryovac meat can last a long time. I would be comfortable if it was two weeks.

This guy leaves it in the cryovac bag for 45 days in the fridge.

I have left them in the fridge a month with no issues.

This. You will know as soon as you cut into the bag if it's gone bad.
