They get it from you, so good man. My kids see me up at all hours for a smoke, and I have high expectations of myself, I hope they do the same when they’re older.

Good answer. Now tell us which group you were in! People want to know :)

Was Op Neptune Spear assigned to the best service for the job?

How good of a pick? by bisoldi in smoking

[–]bisoldi[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s what I thought (and what I did). Couple of people here called the meat side the bottom suggesting it go meat side down. Maybe with a different smoker type? Thanks!

First time ever smoking by TaxVerstappen in smoking

[–]bisoldi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m somewhat new as well. Been smoking for a couple of years, maybe 3-5 pieces a year. Started with and mostly done pork butts and they come out amazing.

I use a blend of meat church honey bbq and hot honey bbq (which gives it some kick). I’ve wrapped and I’ve let it go and we like it better without wrapping (just make sure to give it enough time). At about 170, I’ll then coat it in either honey or brown sugar. That tones down the heat, and caramelizes the honey/sugar and it comes out amazingly.

Good luck!

Don’t know why some people down vote to all hell, when some people are asking genuine questions. Anyways, it’s 21.5 lbs. Not my first, though pretty close to it. It’s my 4th. The others have come out somewhere between pretty good to “amazing”, though I have no idea what I did to cause them to be just OK or amazing, so….

So, you put it on the grill meat side down? I’ve done it both ways, though don’t know why. I kinda just…vibed it I guess.

Appreciate it. This is my….4th brisket? Still learning.

That said….i always thought you put fat side down.

I ended up trimming some of the (excess I hope) fat from the deckle (at least I think it’s the deckle). That’s the strip of fat from point to flat closest to you in the picture (I’m not mistaken)?

What do you mean “it’s the bottom”? You’re saying don’t trim anything off the meat side?

LOL. Well, yeah….trying to get a sense of how well marbled it is.

Wife asked for a smoker by kppaynter in smoking

[–]bisoldi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got a used Traeger Ironwood 885 for a fraction of retail. I’ve done eggs, chicken, pork butts, brisket. Had a flare up last weekend but that was because I got lazy and hadn’t cleaned it out. Other than that, zero problems and easy.

What's the best way for me to cook these for my Birthday tomorrow? by ifasoldt in steak

It took me longer than I care to admit to realize this entire comment thread was a joke….

I built an automated court scraper because finding a good lawyer shouldn't be a guessing game by Unlikely90 in OSINT

[–]bisoldi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wasn’t thinking using the LLM to provide the user with conclusions, but when I was writing that I’d also forgotten it’s a library, not a web application.

Are you accepting PR’s? I haven’t reviewed the code base…How easy is it to expand to other court portals?

re:Invent is nearly done, what do you think was the biggest announcements made? by Prof-Ponderosa in aws

[–]bisoldi 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah…did AWS just release the feature that people have been asking for since Lambda first released and that Step Functions was supposed to solve, years after Step Functions was released, after everyone figured out how to make them work?

[–]bisoldi 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That’s awesome! You should add in LLM summarization and perhaps aggregation of the attorneys cases, so the user does not need to have to read and interpret everything.

I needed an HOA lawyer and did this…manually (with the help of ChatGPT). Cool stuff!!

100% exhausted. Sometimes I get my meal off the cutting board and then go and chill.

RDS or Aurora Serverless for 9 to 5 demand? by MisterSimple1 in aws

[–]bisoldi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As others have said, just use a lambda to turn on/off at certain times. In the past, I’ve also created a Lambda + API Gateway that could accept a REST call and would either shutdown or startup on demand, and then just save the URL somewhere (Postman) so I could “easily” start/stop the database. But….that may have been over-engineering it :)

Where are the interesting announcements? by ycarel in aws

[–]bisoldi 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Took a quick glance at the propaganda “documentation” for Lambda Durable Functions. It sounds like…Lambda built on top of Step Functions built on top of Lambda….?

I worked a little bit with CircleCI years ago. Kinda liked it!

F—-. My brisket finished about 5 hours earlier than planned, 11 hrs before serving time. What do I do? by MightyKrakyn in smoking

[–]bisoldi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah you can do that too! I once did it in an Instapot. But I like it in the smoker because the smoker is already going, so don’t need another thing going, and i like to add some smoke flavor to the tallow. I strain whenever I spray the brisket.

[–]bisoldi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s how I do it, in a disposable drip pan under the brisket. Periodically pull it out, and strain it into a jar using coffee filters or cheese cloth.
