    Cryovac Brisket with brown patches?

    Thank you! The link was especially helpful. Why Is The Edge Of The Brisket Discolored? In this photo, you’ll notice that the edge of this brisket is discolored, sort of a brown color, while the rest of the brisket is bright red. According to Jeff Savell, Professor in the Meat Sciences...

    Cryovac Brisket with brown patches?

    I went to the Sam's Club in Freehold, NJ today to see if their meat offerings were different from my nearest Sam's Club. They had a good number of prime briskets that at first glance looked bright red and fresh. Upon closer inspection however I noticed that they all had brown patches mostly...

    My new favorite Brisket knife.

    It is. It's great for slicing thin pieces of skin off your finger tips, even if that wasn't your intent. LOL.

    FireBoard 2 Drive High Temperature Chicken

    I used a FireBoard 2 Drive, Pit Viper Fan, WSM 18.5, one Weber Chimney of Kingsford Original, hanging hooks, and a LavaLock Rib Hanger. I cooked at 350 degrees with all vents wide open and the fan. The chicken had a rub and KC Masterpiece BBQ Sauce. The smoker could not maintain 350 without the...

    Grilled another part of my father's day gift: Flanken Style Ribs

    Looks good. If you have a warehouse butcher like Western Beef near you, they always have large cryovac packages of short ribs. You can ask the butcher to cut them transverse on the band saw to make flanken .

    Sam's Club Prime Packer Brisket

    15.4 pounds. I do 225 Degrees the whole way. I wrap in foil when the internal temp in the middle of the deckle is 165 degrees and put it back on the smoker till 190 degrees Cook time was 8 +1/2 hours. (33 minutes/pound)Then it goes in the cooler for an hour.

    My Ex Mother in Law Strikes

    There are multiple grades of stainless steel. Some will rust. 304 which is common in kitchen equipment is prone to pitting. https://www.unifiedalloys.com/blog/stainless-grades-families/

    My new favorite Brisket knife.

    I used this Dexter Russell 12 inch scalloped slicer last night to slice a brisket. It's wicked sharp. It's priced well and the handle is sturdy. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004NG98RI/?tag=tvwb-20

    Saturday Tomahawk

    Beautiful looking steak. I belong to Costco and I just joined Sam's Club for the prime briskets. They are stocking the Tomahawks as well.

    Sam's Club Prime Packer Brisket

    Getting a prime packer brisket locally has become a real chore. The only place left is Sam's Club. This was my first purchase. I bought the membership just to have access to the briskets. The price at $4.79/lb is 1/2 what I'd pay online. I cooked it on a 18.5 WSM with FireBoard 2 Drive and Pit...

    Am I crazy?

    I bought a Napoleon Prestige in Stainless Steel seven years ago. It sits outside year round in the NE. It gets used almost every day unless its raining. Not a speck of rust.
