I'm just trying to keep things simple.... Millstream is the name of the business I own. I used to try and keep different names for the various forums I participate in but usually forget which one goes to what forum and try and log on the car wash forum as "IBFLYIN" and try and log on the...
I talked to the butcher again. He said it's the brisket AND the short plate. Now what would you do to that cut? Thanks for the ideas and the laughs guys! Fred Flintstone. LOL!
He halved the steer, cut (what I thought) was the brisket... I just measured it, again. The cut is 39 1/4" long. It's froze now and I didn't really look at it before I froze it. Looking at the briskets people cook on here, mine sure doesn't look similar. What the hell did he cut for me?
This is not your typical meat shop. Their butcher shop is an old dairy barn. Nothing fancy but CLEAN! You walk in, 1/2's and 1/4's are hanging in the cooler, tell 'em what ya want, they cut it and wrap in freezer paper, pay and you walk out. There are no labels on the meat. If you take a...
I wanted to smoke a brisket so I sent a friend to the butcher shop to get one. He came back with a chunk of meat that is 6" x 8" X 40" long... Seriously, this slab of meat is 40" long. It's longer than the smoker. It also doesn't look like the brisket you guys are cooking on here. Should I...
Bizarre Foods with Andrew Zimern had an episode on it. They showed the de-boning and stuffing one bird inside the other. Andrew said it was excellent, though a bit high in fat and cholesterol!
Thanks for all the information!
Porkbutt, I can see from your pics with the in hood thermo at 150 or so and the grate temp of 225.... I had my in hood reading 225 for all six hours... Prolly closer to 325 on the grills. I am expecting a different thermo in the mail any day. There is no doubt...
Thanks for all the ideas! For the next smoke I'm gonna use lump and only add enough wood for a bit of smoke. Also get my temp down at the grilling surface as well as take a temp of the meat and not go by time. It's kinda hard to get the plan down pat as there are so many ways to cook that...
I hobby farm and raise beef cattle and hogs. I just had a steer processed and 2 pigs. I currently have 2-6' chest freezers filled with meat. Even though I have lots to work with, I HATE wasting, ruining, burning anything because I can still remember a time when I didn't have plenty...
I have a Smokin' Pro Charcoal Smoker Grill by Char-Griller - 830 sq inches cooking surface. I didn't use a water pan and heated the smoker with seasoned maple split into 2" by 1" by 12" sticks. It's the same seasoned wood I heat the house with. Thanks-
Hey Geek, the thermo I checked was the stock one in the hood. I ordered a remote one like someone suggested but it hasn't arrived yet. I was scanning the exterior of the smoke hood with the IR, in the same location as the stock thermo. The hood where the stock thermo is located was reading...
Well I got my smoker... , read the e-course, bought Jeffs recipe (good), got a rack of ribs and jumped in. I used hard maple for the fuel. Here's what happened. I started the fire and after 2 hours finally got the smoker to level at 225. (That's the temp Jeffs recipe said to use for ribs)...
I hadn't thought a bit about smoking meat 'till we had a pig roast for a bunch of VIP guests at the Millstream. I guy came in, did 3/4 of a pig, one beef brisket and 10 chickens. Excellent! After eating that meat, that's all I can think of...
I'm reading Jeff's 5 day course, bought his...
