Accidentally got a kosher “soaked and salted” brisket – what now?
What do I do to prep it?

Pepper, garlic powder, paprika. Send it at 225.

Cook like normal, just go a little lighter on salt. All kosher meat has to go through a salting process because of Jewish law. I think the “soaked and salted” statement is just showing that they’ve done the process. I cook kosher briskets all the time, just go a tad bit lighter on salt and it’ll be perfectly fine.

The sodium is low still, I’d treat it as normal. Maybe a little less salt.

Make some Rubens

Cook like normal, reduce the salt in the rub.

Kosher meat tends to run a little salty, but it’s otherwise the same as any other similar cut. We usually just use less salt when we cook it,

I think you’ll be ok. It’s just pre seasoned

I believe the next step is cook it and then

Normal prep, normal cook. I’ve got some buddies who are Jewish and I cook these when we hang.

“Kosher” is a termed used to describe something that has been koshered. Koshering meat is a process of soaking and salting to remove blood. It’s an otherwise perfectly normal (likely higher quality) brisket. That particular one is “glatt” kosher, which means the animal so had perfect lungs

Ship it to me, I cant get kosher meat where I am at and would love to smoke some brisket for my jewish family

It’s just brined. Season it up and cook it.

The best brisket you’ll ever make. It’s already brined for you. I smoke tons of these a year and they are always amazing

Just watch the salt. If you typically use a rub with a decent amount of salt, you should probably cut back on that a little bit.

Don’t add salt lol

Just be glad it’s kosher soaked and not Mormon soaked

All other comments aside, y’all need to try smoking a corned beef brisket next time you see them.

Next time around, a little brine and smoke and you have yourself Pastrami!

It’s basically lightly cured. Use less than normal salt

Mustard and Adobo and that’s it. Throw it in smoker low slow under 250 till internals get to 165 degrees. Rest in cooler for several hours.
Edit: left important piece out. Wrap in foil or butcher wrap @ 165 until 203 degrees then Texas rest. Special credit goes to “Spiders_13_spaghetti”for pointing out this lack of proof reading.

Nothing lost. Coat it in pepper corns, coriander and mustard seeds… turn that bad boy into pastrami.
