Next day service question

Well, normally I would reheat my brisket in a freezer bag in boiling water. This works well for leftovers. But I had to cook my meat today for tomorrow. I have 12 guests and I don't want to screw up all of my hard work. So any recommendations for reheating 20lbs of brisket without over cooking it would be helpful. Thanks

Are we talking about reheating the whole packer or is it already sliced?

Not sliced, I figured that leaving them whole would keep them from drying out.

wrap in foil and add about 1/2 cup of water or applejuice and reheat in the oven @ about 250 for a couple of hours....until it reaches 140 degrees. Remove, let rest about 5 min and slice.....enjoy

Can anyone tell me how the bark holds up with this method?

The reason I ask is I just happen to have a whole brisket that needs to be reheated BUT it has a great bark to it.

Just don't want the bark to go mushy on me.

I prefer to use beef broth instead of apple juice when reheating brisket.
