Did a big bike ride on Sunday and was very tired. It was a bank holiday this Monday and good weather so despite tiredness I was determined to bbq.
Smoked a small piece of brisket and just gave it a quick rub with a spice blend from a previous cook (can't remember what was in it). Fired up the WSM and ran it quite hot about 150c. Used heat beads for this cook and was impressed. I have a thread on UK charcoal so will update that.
Made up a chilli sauce of morito, ancho and guajilo. Some fresh sage and oregano from the garden plus bay. Pork stock as I had some in the freezer. A good splash of Henderson's Relish which is made in Sheffield and way better than Worcestershire Sauce (fighting talk I know but fierce hometown loyalty!).
After 2 hours of smoke I threw the beef into the pot. Gave it three more hours (only a small piece). Was nice and tender with some bite but not pulling territory so sliced and added back to the pot.
Made some corn tortillas and a simple salsa. Was good eating! Could definitely refine the recipe but suited me to just throw some stuff in a pot and leave it!
