FAQs
While you do need to follow each recipe, in general, reheating brisket should be done slowly. Warming it slowly will ensure it stays juicy and moist.
Begin by heating your oven to 325 degrees and place it in a casserole dish. Heat for 30-40 minutes or until it’s hot. I recommend adding any leftover juices you have or adding a little bit of broth to keep it moist.
Yep, it’s a great way to save leftovers and have them on hand whenever you need them. If you have a vacuum sealer, I recommend using it for the brisket. If not, you can place the leftovers in a freezer bag and remove any extra air. Then place the bags inside of another larger container. The meat will last in the freezer 3-4 months.
