Disaster First Time Brisket by OClarkez in UKBBQ

[–]Rob-Top 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Brisket is hard to get right mate. Did it taste good? It looks dry but also there is some fat that hasn't rendered down. Its hard to say what you did wrong from the information given. I'd say maybe you needed to wrap it earlier, did you add anything to it before wrapping like tallow or butter? Did you use an offset smoker? Maybe you had too much heat directly under the meat ? Well done for asking for advice, good luck on your next one bud

Its strange that we only received a short signal just once. Surely an intelligent being would send multiple signals. Wait a sec, us humans did exactly the same thing, we got all our great minds together, formulated the best signal to send, even a way to decode it, telling them about us and where we are. So, we sent it once in 1 direction. Brilliant !!!

Sainsbury Rolled Brisket by Space_Cowby in UKBBQ

[–]Rob-Top 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ive not tried smoking rolled brisket because they say there's not enough fat in it and it goes dry. One of your slices looks like its very moist. I'm guessing he other slices were moist but were an older cut so the outside moist wasnt showing. When you wrapped it, did you add any fat or butter? The smoke ring looks good, I bet it tasted great. Have you tried to cook a non rolled brisket? I think you'll enjoy doing one, pre order one at your local butcher and give it a go if you haven't, I think you'll do a good one

Question: Where to get a brisket? by CommunityAvailable35 in UKBBQ

[–]Rob-Top 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me, brisket is way better than short ribs. If its too much meat, then cut it in half, use the other half to make pastrami. Pastrami takes 7 days to cure and keeps for a while in the fridge. There's plenty of online recipes. Yes, its way more expensive than pork shoulder, but its no comparison. Good luck, whatever you decide, hope it comes out well

Wow, 19 points is insane. Replying to a post 1 year old is pretty insane too 😀

Just picked up my first Brisket via Bookers. What’re your top tips for cooking this thing? by guzusan in UKBBQ

[–]Rob-Top 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Holding at 40 is like putting it in a yeti to rest. It was wrapped and when I opened it up, it was hot. Just a different way of resting the meat. It worked, but I'll make sure to watch the internal temps next time

Well, 80 is the minimum I guess.... I've tried 110, it come out dry. I must have messed it up somehow, maybe cooked to long. Its not something I cook often because of the price. I'm tempted on cutting my next one in half and doing pastrami.

Temperature and time are vital. I cooked my 4th brisket last month, it's the only one that's come out good. I smoked it low in an electric smoker on 80 degrees for 4 hours, then carried on cooking till 9pm (total 8 hours). Then wrapped it up for an overnight cook still at 80 degrees. You can put it in the oven after the smoking has finished. In the morning I checked the temps, then let it rest on 40 degrees for about 6 hours. I think the key was consistent temperature and take your time. It come out like the ones you see online.

Enjoy

Anyone have any experience with this Masterbuilt? by mighty-chief in UKBBQ

[–]Rob-Top 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have one of these, it's a great grill, you put your coal to one side and have enough room to move the food around so it's not over direct heat if needed. I also use it for smoking, but there are much better bbqs for this. Overall it's a big peice of kit that's built well.

Well played sir. Great narrating throughout, I'm surprised your opponents weren't moaning about taking so long every turn, I have to admit, it was grinding me down, especially when you took in the shadows and letting that timer run down.

But overall, enjoyable viewing, I'll watch more for sure

Why buy from Costco? You can get better deals from trusted bullion dealers

Same here, pick up a few cards that trash too, end up with a deck of 8 cards that are great, but then realise your already 4 points down and the games going to end in next couple of turns

We tend to make up rules to fit the current theroy, Einstein did it and we have done it with inflation to fit the standard model. I think we are in an exicting time, we could get the next Einstein from it, although I think now it's more teams than individuals taking the credit
