  • If it is only 1/4" thick, why even trim it ?  Most will melt away.  You don't want to remove all fat.
    I've never been concerned about weight after trimming, but If I was, I'd just weigh the fat and subtract from 15.

  • My cooks for brisket and pork shoulder last year trimmed back almost all of the exterior fat.  I wanted more rub on meat that I will actually keep which is why I trimmed aggressively.  Both cuts have a lot of fat on the interior to keep things moist.

  • Hard to know without knowing the exact trim you are going to do.  You will have almost no trim on top.  Bottom could be as much as 2-3lbs.  If you are going to take the deckle fat out, that could be another pound.  Trimming down to a 1/4 inch of fat, I could see as much as 4lbs. being removed.


    I bought a Costco Prime Brisket 15 lbs.  How much will it weigh after trimmed down to cook?  (1/4" fat on one side only)

    I know that this is unconventional, but when prepping a packer I separate the flat from the point and remove all visible fat from all sides. My thinking is that more meat is exposed to seasoning and smoke. Of course I only smoke to an IT of 120-130°, then sous vide at 132° for 48 hours. Result, Medium rare brisket.
