    Butcher trimmed this wagyu brisket for me

    15 hours @ 225F with lump charcoal and hickory wood. Wrapped at 175. Point was incredibly juicy and probe tender at 203 (First time probing this brisket). Flat was juicy, but still had a tad bit of resistance with the probe at 203. Not sure why, but I wound up pulling it off. Rested 45 min on...

    It was 9.99 a pound. I definitely kept all the fat for burgers and sausage in my grinder. About 3.5lbs of fat. The flat and point are not completely separated and still attached. I watched few trimming videos but didn't see one trimmed like this. However, one mentioned being able to add your...

    Butcher trimmed this wagyu brisket for me

    Picked up a 19lb American wagyu brisket from Snake River Farms at a local butcher. I've only trimmed a handful of briskets in my time so I would never consider myself pro. But, I've never removed the entire big piece of fat between the point and flat where the two pieces can be separated like...

    Dry aging questions

    On a another note, the temperature data I was collecting became completely scewed when I turned the fan on and started monitoring again. Temps dropped another 4 degrees F overall so I have to adjust again. I am betting I will need to adjust further when the meat goes in. The one thing I dont...

    Dry aging questions

    I have started to convert a brand new blaze 4.5cu mini fridge for dry aging. I've had this fridge for a while but it was never used and not needed so it was wiped down with water/beach. Currently measuring temperature and humidity levels with a wifi thermometer/hygrometer and 2 standalone temp...

    First brisket.....fire went out :(

    The small cut hit 164 and didnt seem to have a stall.....Made a steady climb. The large cut has stalled at 151 for roughly 45 minutes now. I was tempted to spray the small cut with apple juice but I held back and let the fat drip on the meat. Seems to have worked well. Meat appeared moist when...
