Brisket Question
Comments (5)Don't need to raise the temperature and probably won't take any longer than my two 6-pound briskets cooked at the same time in one pot. I might cut it in half to facilitate browning and cook according to recipe. A touch more liquid would be in order as mentioned. Brisket will dry out if the connective tissue is over-cooked too long or too high a temperature. If fork-tender, it is done. I cook mine at 300...See MoreHow high is too high for a built-in microwave?
Comments (6)Thanks for the advice everyone! I'm needing to fit these into the existing cabinet space, so I don't have the option of placing the microwave in a different spot elsewhere in the kitchen.

Comments (10)desertsteph - yes, ideally I would prefer the MW to be lower. But I REALLY want my double ovens too! If I could just find a way to get both... ;-) momof3kids_pa - Thanks for the picture.

I don't want to have to open a cabinet every time it's used nor did I want it taking up valuable pantry space. It's so limited already. Anybody have some alternative ideas?...See Morelaxsupermom
