    What a great forum we have here!  So glad to be a part of it! Oh, and Dirtsailor203  -  we're doing the beef plate ribs on Saturdays now instead of Fridays - they sell out so fast that most customers who work on Friday never had a chance.  Now they all have a chance! Thanks again to all - it...

    What makes a brisket taste "pot-roasty"?

    I find when a brisket taste like pot roast it's because of how the brisket is held after the smoke. Some joints place the finished smoked brisket in a roasting pan with beef broth to keep it moist and to use the broth as a "dip" when slicing for service.  All I can taste is the beef broth.  The...

    I truly apologize if my comment/question seemed harsh - it certainly wasn't intended that way. Yes, I do own and operate a BBQ joint, but I don't claim to be an expert. I do, however, have quite a bit of experience smoking briskets of all grades - select, choice, prime, wagyu, etc. I was just...

    Not trying to rain on your brisket parade, but looking closely at this pic - it appears the collagen between the muscle strands hasn't broken down and turned to gelatin.  Are you sure this is fully done?

    "Resting your brisket"

    I think I have a slightly different take on this issue. Here's what I do. Since I wrap my brisket in butcher paper after 5 hours, I test for tenderness at the end of the cook by picking it up and feeling how it moves.  When tender I take it off the pit and open the paper up and let it sit for...

    I have a supplier who has the Post Oak shipped up here for us.  I'm the only joint up here using it, I think.

    These are Plate Ribs - bones are about 11" long.  IMPS 123A (untrimmed) or 123B (trimmed).  I can get them occasionally but only in master cases - around 75# per case.  That gets me 12 racks.  Racks are 3 ribs and weigh approximately 6# ea.  Finished cooked weight on this rack was 4.7#, so one...
