    Brisket over open fire

    Yes, there are other ways of cooking brisket besides smokin' them. Here I'm grilling a small Dexter brisket (about 3 lbs) on a santa maria open fire pit. I used mostly oak wood with a couple of logs of mesquite for that Texas flavor. Cooked about 4 hours at 8-11 hand seconds (maybe 225-250F)...

    Reverse Seared Hanger Steak

    Look really great. The hanger is one of my favorite cuts. And yes, you won't find it at your grocery. I raise a cow for beef every year so I always get one. But there is only one per cow, although there is a membrane that runs down the length of the muscle that divides it into 2 similar long...

    Another Grilled Prime Chuck Roast by RS

    Looks great! I also like to grill chucks similarly. But I tried to grill a 3" thick arm roast last week and it turned out tough and chewy. Good flavor but was not fun to eat. So I threw it in a pot and braised with broth for another hour or two and it turned out great; very tender and much...

    Smoked Beef Shoulder

    Still looks good even if a little dry. You think a dry brine would have helped? And what is the difference between shoulder roast and chuck?

    Thor's Hammer (Beef Shank) On Sale!!!!

    I've cooked beef cross-cut shanks but never a whole shank (leg) bone. I smoke the cross cuts for about 2 hours, then braise for another 3 hours. You need to remove from smoker before it dries out, which would be considerably before 190F. Here is one of my music videos on this, with a Reverend...

    Technical question about wrapping

    You're wrapping in pink butcher paper, right? Wrap tightly and place on rack with fat side down. Usually the paper will absorb most of the liquid. If you have pooling on top of the brisket, slant it so that it runs off. Then unwrap towards end as others suggest.

    Looks good. I like the way you overcame the "pretty small" steak issue; just cook another one.

    Top Sirloin Cap Steaks (Picanha)

    Thanks. I'm not sure what kind of algorithm they use for choosing featured content. I haven't posted in a while; been busy working in the garden, mending fences, and a vacation in paradise (Tahiti).

    Top Sirloin Cap Steaks (Picanha)

    If you see one in the grocery, give it a try. Won't disappoint. I did both wrapped in foil and without wrapping. Wrapped were softer, unwrapped were more fluffy. Yea, potatoes were great. Thanks Yes they are lean. And the meat is quite tender too. A win win. Thanks.

    Top Sirloin Cap Steaks (Picanha)

    Running low on my homegrown beef and saw a sign at Publix for "top sirloin cap steaks" at $8.50 / lb. None on the shelves so asked the butcher. He got out a cryovac and started to slice up some steaks. "Hey, can I get a whole one?" I ask. He replies, "you mean a picanha." Yea of course I do. He...

    Chuck Roast smoking temp

    Sounds like a plan, Stan. But you may want to wrap a little sooner, when the bark looks the way you want it. You don't want it drying out.

    3rd Cook On The Hy-Fyre: Brisket Perfection....Finally (Q-View)

    Fantastic looking Q. And great engineering. I wouldn’t have thought you could dial in a smoke ring like that. If only manufacturers took as much care as you.

    Using Pan and Juices

    Good explanation by noboundries. When smoking with Weber kettle and SnS, drip pan placed on charcoal grate does not get as hot and less juices evaporate. Another reason for using the old kettle.
