(If you can find a way to save the brick dust when you drill the holes in your fireplace even better) Mix up a bit of mortar and fill the hole almost flush. Then mix the brick dust with a very small amount of mortar and fill the rest of the hole up flush.
Seriously that works? Well that changes everything. Though I still worry about chipping off huge chunks or something when drilling. The TV weighs 110lbs.
