PAULA’S HELPFUL HINT

When making brisket or turkey - Put it on a jelly roll pan when done and let it sit at least 1/2 hour. Slice on the pan and then you don’t have juice running all over the counter.

notes

Can be frozen. Defrost for 1 day and reheat (covered) @ 325° for 1 hour, reduce heat to 250° until ready to eat.
