If you make the chili (or whatever) now, then you can see if it's worth freezing. I'd hate to need to make a pot of chili for anyone sometime down the road and not have it work because the meat wasn't salvageable.

Yeah, that makes sense.  I may be able to vacuum seal the chili.

What I've done is freeze the chili (or marinara sauce, etc.), in a shallow plastic container.  Then, after it's hard a rock, pop it out and vac seal the block.  That way you get your container back and you simply drop the vac bag in a pot of warm water to start the thawing process.

Sloppy Joes and beer?

Of course, that's a good idea, too ! ! !

Chili appeals to me but this doesn't seem like chili weather.  Will freezing it make it dryer?  (I have a vacuum sealer.)

I like the idea of chopping or shredding the brisket and making a large batch of chili.

This way no BBQ sauce is involved..............and nobody gets hurt   :D

A good large baked potato is a meal on its own.

Yeah, maybe, but I'd rather see it sitting beside a nicely grilled 12 oz. Filet and 6 or 8 (16-20 count) shrimp.

But that's just me . . .

I had this happen before and ended up chopping it up, cook with bbq sauce and call it pulled beef.
Brisket chili is good also.

Both are good options, although I hate to see a brisket or pulled pork defiled with BBQ sauce. That, of course, is my less than humble opinion. I rarely use BBQ sauce on anything other than burnt ends (or ribs - and that's mostly because SWMBO insists). It can, however, draw attention away from something that might otherwise be inedible.

Jus' sayin'...
