Have a brisket with a "sell by date" of 2/14/20. It has been in the fridge since then in cryo and was purchased from Kroger. Planning to smoke today, should it still be safe? Smelled fine and wasnt slimey.

I purchased a cryo'd brisket about a week or so ago and froze it, and have since thawed it and it is in the fridge. I bought it with the intention to make dry cured pastrami (want to cure for 7 days) but failed to thoroughly read the recipe that says to only use the flat of the brisket. I do not...

So I screwed up. Bought brisket rubbed it down and had everything set up for my first overnight smoke. I forgot to check the weather and right after I put the brisket on my wife runs out and tells me its supposed to pour over night and I have no protection for wind and rain for the smoker. Long...

Should the membrane always be removed? If so, is it easiest to remove at room temp or when the ribs are still cold. Shooting to do my first smoke Monday. Went to Costco and bought 2 packs (6 slabs) today , fingers crossed 😎
