How is the bourbon soaked chuck?

It turned out quite tasty. I wish I could have soaked it longer but life happened. Wife asked what I put in it as she could smell the booze. I should have told her wine or something ike that.

Man that looks good! Too many chuck posts of late to ignore the obvious signs. Damn things just aren't cheap here. I'll look at the Commissary tomorrow and see what the price is.

I've got 2 tri-tips in the cooler. One of them is getting the pulled beef day at the spa treatment. Was thinking about doing it brisket style, but the pulled kinda wins.
At $3.99 / # I've got all kinds of sacrilege planned for tri-tip.

Yeah I got these at Sam's for about $5.49/lb. More than I like to spend but cheaper than a tri tip here. Plus more fat.

A chuck has basically zero trim.
After I trim out one of the tri-tips, i'll recalculate the price per pound. Not as bad as the roughly 40% loss in a brisket, but still enough to check it out.

Around here the average for a tri-tip is about$10.00/lb. Sometimes if I am lucky I can find it for $6.99/lb but never under that.
