    Puyazo????

    Thanks Richie.  These are common here and I smoke them ever once in awhile.  Usually keep it low and slow til an IT of about 125ish* and it turns out fine.  This time I trimmed a lot of the fat off (it was over 1/2" thick) and put it in the freezer. The brisket here (when I can find it) has...

    Puyazo????

    I have been trying to figure out what this cut of meat is. Here in Honduras it labeled as puyazo which I thought was Tri-tip. I think I now have found out it is actually Top Siroin Cap or Rump Steak.(all these cut names get somewhat confusing as many of the same cuts are called different names)...

    Building a Mini Weber Smokey Mountain in Texas (Mini WSM)

    Jaez...I have used a can with holes to keep chips from catching on fire, as well as a a chip smoke box on top of the charcoal.  Either works great for me.

    16.3 lb chunk of brisket - HELP!

    Thanks Cody.  That is a great idea.  Someone just sent me a Weber Kettle Premium.  So I think with it I can make this fit fine.  I am still on a learning curve with the Mini I made and now I will be on one with the Kettle.  It is the same diameter as a 55 gal drum so I have thoughts of modifying...

    16.3 lb chunk of brisket - HELP!

    The picture does not do this brisket justice.  Whatever I do it is gonna take 2 days just to thaw out so I can cut it.

    16.3 lb chunk of brisket - HELP!

    This sort of thing has been very hard to come by.  Here where I live I can only find grass feed beef with very little fat and even then brisket is far and few between.  My wife was able to find this 16.3 pound chunk-a-love in San Pedro Sula through a good friend and it looks like I have a great...

    third brisket smoke on my mini

    Thanks Justin.  I did the yellow mustard on my very first brisket but have not done it since.  I willl do it on the next one.  I thought I was always supposed to put the fat side down, although it makes sense to let the fat juices soak down into the meat.   I did put the fattiest one on top this...
