Sometimes being well stocked is good for a buddy!

[Timothy F. Lewis]

Just had a call from a fellow Weber aficionado, family visiting from out of town and wanted a brisket, arrival was after Costco was closed! The phone rings...”Hey, you wouldn’t happen to have a “spare” brisket in your freezer, would you?”
I told him I certainly did and he was more than welcome to replace it next week!
He’s a good guy,and I’m happy to help him out!
Being well stocked can be valuable!

Really…….

Yup. we always keep several slabs of pork ribs, 2 or more butts and some whole chickens in one of the freezers. Beyond that, assorted sausages,, ground meat, a ham, several pounds of bacon and various other proteins, depending on the sales we find. I hate paying full price for meat, so usually stock up when the price is right.

Wouldn't the brisket still be frozen in the morning as opposed to going to the store.

Fast defrost via sous vide?

Exactly!

I have been debating a sous vide machine for a while now. I wasn't aware that you can defrost (and quickly) in it. Am I understanding that correctly?

I’ve only used a sous vide unit a couple of times but, I liked the results with tri tip, both times.
I might borrow my brothers again for a standing rib roast for my birthday but, I don’t know...yet.

You could definitely use an infinitely large circulating water bath at 40F. Would be very fast.
