I've heard of people going as long as 3 weeks wet aging a brisket in the cryovac. I personally prefer dry aging.

Yes, cryovac. I did some online searching and it seems you can go really long if left in the cryovac and don't get a leak. I was surprised by the 90 days statement from a study done. :shock:[/quote:15cz21on]

I've aged steaks for about a week by vacumn sealing them but NINETY DAYS??? :shock:
 
If you cut it open and it smelled ok, you should be fine. You will know if it has gone bad. If the cryovac was still intact 50+ days is fine. I don't know if I would go much further than 50 days though. I will also say I have tried 40 day aged brisket cooked side by side with a fresh brisket by 2 of the top comp cooks in KCBS and actually thought the fresh one would have faired better in a competition.
