How long can you hold brisket?
Chef's answer
You can hold all day even as low as 145 degrees if you well wrap and don't pre-slice the brisket into serving trays. If the temp is right and if you super wrap, everything should stay hot and moist. Your bark will become soft but it's flavor will remain. The moisture will remain in the package.
