Told to let my brisket rest for 2 hours and it was cold by the time I served it
My buddy Dave who runs a food truck in Austin swore by that long rest, but when I tried it at a family cookout last Sunday the internal temp dropped to 140 and everyone had to nuke their slices, has anyone else had a long rest backfire like that?

Yeah, Dave's been wrong before. Two hours is too long unless you got a cambro.

Wait, did you wrap it in anything while it rested? If you just left it out on the cutting board, yeah that heat's gonna bleed off fast. Toss it in a cooler with some towels or even just foil and a blanket and it'll stay hot for hours.
