Does the meat fall off the hooks?


I have been interested in that since you showed pics, how does hanging 14-15 lbs of meat work out after 12 hours of smoking?

The PBC cooks around 300, so you're actually only smoking about 6. I hang for 3-4 and then wrap and lie flat.

You don't get the smoke ring pronounced, but my results have been very tasty. I'm willing to sacrifice a smoke ring to cut the cook time in half.

Fat side down works better in that circumstance. So ****ing good.

The fat cap in that case serves as insulation.

I never had the inclination to subject $125-$150 piece of meat to that type of punishment. Is this method a acquired skill or one out of necessity?

I bet the fat dripping into a camp fire for hours mean't you ate with a sidearm ready?

There hasn't been one subject you aren't an industry leading expert on. Quite an impressive range.from Automotive to restuarant. Literally 99 percent of topics brought up. You intimately know almost every restuarant anyone has eaten at no matter how small or large or time been in business.

There's just no way you could be telling the truth. And that's just silly.

Yep, I haven’t messed with it for a while. Too expensive for a cut that takes so much to make edible.

Used to be that down here in the South at the megamarts, but Costco usually has the whole packer briskets for $3-$4. No ****ing way I'd spend $7/pound.

Yep USDA Prime, local butcher, local product with frequent offender:D discount. The excessive fat is removed.

I quit doing choice brisket. too many mixed results.

I can get a whole Prime brisket at Costco for $40. No ****ing way I'm spending that coin on brisket.

Packer USDA Choice? I have seen Costco having some great prices(<$3) in the past but I'm not near one. I learned my lesson on Sam's Brisket. Their supplier seems to get a one up on grading. They say it's angus but not Certified Angus.

I've learned that the side is graded at the ribeye and the processor separates the prime grades and Sam's is more like top choice.
