Plan to prepare and cook the brisket the day before you serve it. This way it’ll give the beef time to release its juices so you can use them to make the sauce. Also, once the juices have cooled, you can easily skim off the fat. Refrigerate the brisket overnight, then the next day, before the meal, finish it up.
