Warmer for Resting

[IamMadMan]

I have a Cambro cooler that will hold about 4 briskets. Problem is if I only have one there seems to be too much air space to keep it above 140 for much more than a few hours. Pack it full and it will keep 7 hours.

I put a few foil covered fire bricks in the smoker, and transfer them to a full size hotel pan. Put the hotel pan of bricks below the single pan of meat and you are golden. The bricks will hold the heat for a long period of time. Great for portability.....

I also use a Camp Chef Smoke Vault propane smoker as a holding oven for large amounts of food until ready to serve.

When we remodeled out kitchen, we went with a Kitchenaid 36" commercial gas/electric stove. One of the many reasons for picking that particular model (besides being top-rated on Consumer Reports), is that it has a water line to it and a keep warm mode that will go as low as 140 degrees. It will keep the brisky hot and moist for quite a long time.
