...and my wife too.
So far all of the briskets that I have cooked have been for some kind of party, get together or special occasion. The smallest brisket I usually can find at WalMart is around 12 lbs. Last week while checking out the briskets there I found a 7.5 lb brisket that was beautiful...
Oh yes I did. You must not be married. Women are a really different type of human. They defy logic and like a theoretical physicist they can make up their own logic to fit their theories.
I agree 100%. But if she has to look at the ribs, she won't eat them. To her red meat is undone meat, period. Even if she knows better, it is perception, not fact that sways her opinion.
I won't fight it. It's not worth it because it will be a losing battle. I like ribs done either way and I...
Believe me, I have tried, but perception is everything. If she perceives that they are undercooked there is no education in the world that is going to change her mind.
I just had to rant.
I love smoking meat and I love good baby back ribs. Unfortunately my wife is a little weird. The first time I smoked baby backs in my GOSM they turned out fantastic with a nice deep rich smoke color throughout. My wife said to me, "are you sure these are done? They look so...
The size for me is also related to time. The last full pork butt I smoked was a 10 pounder and it took 20 hours to get to 200. This one I started this morning and it was done in time for a delicious supper, with enough left over to give some to my mom and some for lunch tomorrow. Life is good.
I found at my local Food Lion a 1/2 pork butt. I had never seen such a thing before but it seemed like a perfect size for just me and my wife. A whole butt is great if you are having some people over, but it is overkill for just two people. I had some time today so I put it on early this morning...
I liked it too. It was a little dry, but not popcorn fart dry. Besides, I have enough point stashed away to keep me in burnt ends for a couple of days.
Yes I did. Along with some drippings I added about a cup of beef broth seasoned with Worcestershire, soy sauce, onion and garlic. But about 2 hours before I was to leave to take it over for supper I drained the liquid and put the liquid in the fridge so I could skim off the grease. I then double...
It was very tender and flavorful. It was a little drier than I like but that was probably because it got done a couple of hours sooner than I anticipated (no stall this time). I double foiled it and put it in the oven at about 185 for about 3 hours to keep it hot. That is probably why it was a...
Finally got back home. Everyone loved the brisket and I got many compliments. I have to thank this forum for all of my success in smoking brisket. All that I have learned about smoking brisket, I learned from reading and participating in this forum. Now the qview. I apologize tor the crappy pix...
