Re: First bash at Brisket

That looks fantastic. Well done. Thought you were going to say you had wrapped it and used Irn Bru as the wrapping juice!
Know what you mean about the pepper. I did Meathead's Big Bad Beef Rub and the pepper was verging on the too hot, especially for the nippers.

Re: First bash at Brisket

Hi

I am far from an expert in brisket but did my first one last weekend. It went down very well and I can't wait to do another one. I will give you my take on brisket from my little experience;


Evening,

I've done a few chickens now on my WSM and even a joint of beef (which came out beautiful ...

Re: Kosher Salt

It was more like 13 lbs by the time it was all trimmed up and ready to go. Did it in the PBC in only 6 hours. Wrapped it after three and a half hours. Let it sit in a cooler for two hours wrapped in towels. It was fantastic.
I used Meathead's Big Bad Beef Rub (which comes out quite peppery for young ...

Re: UDS build

That lamb looks fantastic. Good work.

UDS looks good too. My PBC runs easily at 275/285 F but the drums are quite small.

Re: Kosher Salt

Thanks everyone.

I've got some Maldon kicking around so will give that a try. Just picked up my first full brisket weighing in at 17 lbs. Looking forward to getting it prepped and rubbed. To be honest I'm a little nervous. This thing is HUGE!

PBC did a great job on a leg of lamb last weekend but I ...

Re: Hi from the Sussex Weald

Had to go through their annual TB test yesterday and there was another one which was a bit tricky to handle - she suddenly began to look rather tasty as well....
Might need to upgrade the freezer capacity.

Kosher Salt

Morning all.

Prime outdoor cooking weather out there and thinking about the weekend cook up.

Anyone got a good UK substitute for the ubiquitous Kosher Salt we see in so many US recipes?

Seems the granules are bigger than table salt but smaller than top notch sea salt.

Any advice gratefully ...

Hi from the Sussex Weald

Hi All

Became obsessed with real barbecue after a few trips to Texas over the years and good to see there are a few others who think there is more to barbecue than sausages.

Had a Cheap Offset Smoker for a while, which works ok but has to be watched. Recently upgraded to a Pit Barrel Cooker and ...
