I found another big point side of a brisket at Costco with the main flat section removed. Works for me since I’m a fatty brisket man. Why would they remove the flat? It’s not in the factory cryo bag.
Over smoking is nasty. First rack of ribs I smoked were gross. Had cheap mesquite pellets and didn’t wrap at all. I think we ate a few and the rest were hidden in the fridge until they got thrown in the trash.
The new Riverton Costco. Only seen it a few times. Was a weird brisket, maybe too small to sell as a full packar. I’m assuming they cut off the flat and made it into street tacos or something else.
That’s wagu beef tallow which I then put over the meat if needed (or cook eggs with). The garlic gets smashed on crusty bread but unfortunately I over cooked it :(
You can cook meat too hot/quickly and not let the collagen melt into meat jello or dry the surface out. But after the wrap you can for sure crank it up a little to speed it.
