Hey guys- new to the forums. Been a lurker for some time. I’ve smoked about 10 briskets over the last couple years so still figuring out my process.
I was in a rush getting a brisket tonight at the store and when the butcher at the meat counter showed the brisket, he showed the side without fat and it looked good. A few hours later I am about to prep the meat with rub to sit overnight and smoke all day tomorrow. Go to trim the fat and see some dark spots all through the fat. Has anyone seen this? Any idea what it is? Safe to eat or throw out?
Thanks in advance!
