    Easter Brisket 2025

    That looks about perfect from here, well done! The foil on the ends is something I will be sure to keep in my bag of tricks.

    Short ribs question

    When they’re cut like that, as opposed to whole dinos, I’ve found they can dry out a bit on top and the edges. I’d have a mop/spritz/baste on hand to keep them moist if needed. Normally I’d braise them in wine and beef stock the last 2 hrs or so but with that much fat to render I don’t think...

    How Do You Afford This Addiction?

    I was going to ask if that was the Cog (Smog ) on Washington. I was backpacking in from the North one time and about to cross the tracks with the train going up and the people on the train were taking pictures of me, lol!

    Tried the lollipop thing….

    I slide my thumb and forefinger down to the base (may need to make a little room with a knife) then snap it off as far down as possible. I guess a pliers would work though take care not to crush the bone. After removing I check to make sure it’s whole and feel around for splinters if I don’t...

    Be sure to take good care of the splinter bone, don’t want anyone choking on that.

    How Do You Afford This Addiction?

    Cool, I’ve never been in one of those. I’m on the discovery side, the cleanliness, or rather lack thereof, in our labs would horrify the production people 😆

    I’m in a pretty nice area around 10miles or so SW of Rutgers and a little more N of Princeton. Not how I envisioned Jersey before moving here a bit over 3yrd ago.

    Got My Mail Order of Northern Fish

    I second the pickled pike 👍. I wonder (never tried) if you could smoke it and make fish dip like people do with bluefish?
