💥 Battle of the Briskets 💥
But... Beware the Butcher 🧟‍♂️

Choosing a good cut of meat 🥇for your off-set smoker is vital. It needs ample marbling and a healthy fat layer to keep the meat moist while being subdued during the long periods of dry heat cooking.

Beef Brisket is unmistakably the number one cut to consider amongst hefty contenders like beef chuck, beef ribs, pork shoulder and -ribs.
But....beware the BUTCHER...selling you the flat ❌...

Remember Brisket is a primal cut, but it is located further down on the animal, (near the ribcage).

It is now divided into two sub-primals which are called the point/second cut ❗and the flat/first cut❗ It is not easy to find the point end of a brisket sold seperately from the entire cut, however, it can be done. 👌👍

The Point or second cut ✅ is a premier cut 🥇for smoking and a pre-requisite for a mouth-watering result.

The muscles from the Brisket get a lot of exercise. Resulting in tough meat. When you cook brisket low and slow the collagen breaks down and the tough fibers relax; creating a finished product that’s tender and moist. Pay close attention 👀 to your holding time after the initial 4-6 hour smoking process. 👀This is where the magic will happen. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Cheers 🔥🔪 on smashing my 1 TON BENCHMARK on smoking meat over the past 4 years. This year alone I've smoked 200kg Brisket at the Restaurant for three (3) Atlantic Rail events. Thank you for the privilege! 💙

Hot Smoking meat is an intricate and very complex process, it's a delicate art that takes dedication and a deep understanding of the craft and also the cut of meat, from managing airflow and maintaining thin blue smoke, to monitoring internal temperatures and perfecting the bark, to achieve a flawless end result.
