    Best Place to get ribs?

    I got my last racks of St. Loius cut from BJ's.....big mistake.    Very thin/small and not much marbling. I've got a really good butcher about 20 minutes from me but he is super expensive.   I pay $9 per pound for Angus brisket from him. Are there any good places in between.   Big Y, Stop and...

    Rookie brisket question

    The kicker is that I have a canopy, but things looked pretty clear so I didnt put it up.  When I woke up I was able to get it up and dry things out.  The upside to this is I believe I got the approva(wife)l to set up an outdoor kitchen so I'll have a long term answer.  :)

    Rookie brisket question

    So this cook was an exercise in being flexable and keeping a smile on my face.  I woke up at 5am started the smoker trimmed the brisket and it went in at 6. Sun came up, it was a little cloudy but no signs of rain.   Watched the smoker until 7am while sipping on some coffee, rock steady at 250. ...

    Rookie brisket question

    I'll snap some pics of the process then.  :) I've never had good brisket before so I don't know what it would normally taste like.  However the beer wasn't overwhelming, I couldn't taste beer.  The meat was moist and flavorful but it could have been that way anyway. Honestly I watch too many...

    Brisket Price Variations

    Thats what I paid for my last "grass fed angus" brisket at a butcher.  I think it was $9 actually. Not that I feel I need that expensive of a cut but up in the North East I can't find anywhere else to get them.

    Rookie brisket question

    First post! Planning my second brisket smoke this Sunday. First one came out good but I never separated the point, so I didn't have burnt ends. Also didn't rest it after the cook. I'd like a critique of my plan if you all would be so kind. My plan is simple: -Start with a 12-13lbs Angus...
