    concentration of brining solutions

    hi guys long time no post for me! I have wondered for quite a while why the brining process has never been quantified properly. Frequently, the measurements are bases on cups (of a given salt: table, kosher etc) per gallon) plus a conversion factor per salt type, perhaps we should consider...

    Brisket - Primal cut

    A couple weeks ago I went wild in the butcher shop, I decided to cook a brisket and baste it with a sacrificial pork shoulder. Good idea all around. I've had problems getting a decent cut of brisket over here, they like to roll em, so they're flats. If you try to negotiate further to get a...

So I decided to fire up 1 chimney of the leftover lump leaving a scattering in the bottom, remove the water pan and...

    Larding a brisket ?

    I'm almost considering *not* cooking brisket over here (UK) anymore, I can't seem to find nicely marbled cuts of meat. I was wondering if anyone ever lards their brisket to artificially introduce fat ? I can either get tender/dry or tough-ish/moist. I've tried pulling the meat off the BBQ at...

    What is the best dual probe remote thermometer ?

    My telepathic mother has offered to purchase a dual probe remote thermometer for me for XMas. I think she must've seen the bad press surrounding the bad batch of Mavericks earlier this year (or so) Can anyone who has purchased an ET73 lately confirm that they are indeed a quality product ...

    Rolled Brisket ?

    24 hour pork butt

    Here in London meat is cut differently, and if you walk into a butcher and ask for a pork butt they won't know what you mean. It took some describing and I still don't know what they're called over here, but I managed to get one last Saturday. I had the butcher cut it in half so it weighed...

    Red Wine Marinade

    I used this marinade for a brisket last weekend, let the meat sit in a ziplock with the marinade for 24 hours. It would probably make a nice salad dressing (vinaigrette). It was very tasty. ********************************************** Red Wine Marinade...
