    My first Brisket, and it sure won't be my last

    Nicely done, and great thread with pics! The trimming can be a hard lesson learned, when in doubt, leave extra on it, especially the softer fat. The harder suet looking stuff can get trimmed of pretty close to the meat! Now that ya done one, I bet its not as hard as ya thought was it? looks...

    She said yes

    That may be a stretch, but I am sure you could do 75 lbs. 120 lbs is about max for my 60, or 14 butts. Happy for you about your new arrival. I doubt you will regret getting it!

    Food Safety concern: Is My Brisket ruined?

    Good job Eric, if your nose says "no", then pitch it. Why invest all the time and fuel for something you will be wondering about for 2 days after you serve it. Not worth it. Better to be remembered for not having any brisket than for folks to remeber you by having a crappy one that made em sick!

    Cooking BB's for next day?

    we reheat ribs all the time, I think they are better the next day, pulled pork too! Wrap em in foil and reheat at a low temp 200-250 for 30-45 minutes. If you are reheating a whole pan, it will take an hr. You can spray them down with a mixture of 2 parts apple juice and 1 part BBQ sauce...

    shoulder clod

    Shoulder clods are wonderful smoked as are chuck rolls. They range from 14-28 lbs where I get them. I like the Excel cyrovacked ones the best.

    How to Give points

    Why bother, some of us lost hundreds, and even over a thousand of them just 6 months ago with the crash. Got mine back about 3 times, over 900 of them, but as you can see, they are gone again. There are other veterans of the site who lost twice as many as I did and still have 1 green square...

    RE: USDA Response on cooking chicken

    very good advice! Its the byproduct of these lil germs that cannot be cooked out of foods that will make you sick. Some people are giving out some very questionable advice on a site geared to helping newbies. Not cool at all.

    RE: USDA Response on cooking chicken

    You know what they say rich.............something about leading horses to water. You made your case, the majority of us also know better, yet some will push the envelope...............for what? I f anyone ever seen how chickens and turkeys were processed, you might not ever eat one. Why...

    Got some red oak

    Nice deal, the ash won't impart much flavor, but it makes a great heat source.

    Pulled pork method

    Umm, thats not correct. Celophane or saran wrap will start to melt around 265-270. PVC might make it to 375, but we aint talkin bout that are we. There are about 6 different kinds of plastics used in cooking. The highest melting point are the utensils like spatulas and pan handles, the least is...

    pig roast

    Smoking or cooking. 2 different things. Most folks cook them, if you try to actually smoke one, you may end up sick. I have heard some horrific stories about idiots who actually spend 20+ hrs trying to smoke a hog. Most pigs are cooked at over 300 degrees! I would be safe and shoot for the...
