3-15-15 very good but too salty, put in in the sous vide bag for a week, flipped it a couple of times, drained it and put it back in to same bag (make it a little big to start) and cooked it at 178 for 12 hours,,, let it sit over night and then saved the juices for vegs and heated on top of the veggies, sort of a neat way to cook it..

(about 2 teaspoons) saltpeter
30 grams/1 ounce (about 2 tablespoons) packed brown sugar
2 tablespoons whole black peppercorns
2 tablespoons yellow mustard seeds

small bowl and whisk until homogenous. Rub evenly over every surface of brisket.
Combine peppercorns, mustard, coriander, allspice, cloves, ginger, and bay
leaves and sprinkle evenly over both sides of beef, pressing spices gently into the
meat until they stick. Seal the beef in a vacuum sealed bag or a zipper-lock bag

for 7 days, flipping once a day.

and carefully rinse off all spices under cold running water. Pat dry with paper
towels. Preheat oven to 200°F. Place brisket in large Durch oven, cover with water
