Sliced Beef Brisket: How to Cook, Serve, and Keep It Tender


  • Author: Mery
  • Total Time: 25-35 minutes
  • Yield: 1 lb reheated brisket

Description

Revive your sliced beef brisket with the smoky, juicy flavor of a grill! This method ensures your brisket stays tender and moist while adding an extra layer of smokiness. Perfect for BBQ lovers who want to enjoy their brisket as fresh as the first cook.


Ingredients

  • 1 lb sliced beef brisket (pre-cooked)
  • 2 tablespoons beef broth or BBQ sauce
  • Aluminum foil
  • 1 small chunk of hickory or oak wood (optional, for extra smoke flavor)

Instructions

  • Preheat the Grill – Set your grill to 225°F (107°C) using indirect heat. If using a smoker attachment, add a small wood chunk near the heat source for extra smokiness.
  • Prepare the Brisket – Lay out the brisket slices on a large sheet of aluminum foil. Drizzle 2 tablespoons of beef broth or BBQ sauce over the slices to keep them moist.
  • Wrap Tightly – Fold the foil over the brisket slices, sealing the edges to create a packet. This traps steam and prevents drying.
  • Reheat on Indirect Heat – Place the foil-wrapped brisket on the grill grates, away from direct flames. Close the lid and heat for 20-30 minutes, flipping once halfway through.
  • Check for Doneness – Carefully open the foil (watch out for steam) and check if the brisket is heated through. If needed, leave it for an additional 5 minutes.
  • Serve and Enjoy – Remove from the grill, unwrap, and serve immediately with your favorite BBQ sides!

Notes

  • For an extra crispy bark, open the foil for the last 5 minutes of reheating.
  • If using a charcoal grill, place the brisket on the cooler side to prevent burning.
  • Best served with grilled cornbread, coleslaw, or baked beans!
