Monday - immerse brisket in a brine of water, sugar, kosher salt, pink salt, chopped garlic and home made pickling spice. Remove on Saturday, discard brine, rinse brisket and boil for 3 hours in a pot with fresh water and more pickling spice.
During cooking process, remove lid from simmering pot and hold camera directly over the top because what can possibly go wrong? Maybe steam will cover the lens before you can snap a picture?
Having learned your lesson, wipe condensation from camera lens and take picture from an angle.
After about 3 hours of simmering, remove brisket and let rest for a few minutes before carving. Hey, it really did turn pink!
