Grilled Rbeye last night, a bit disappointing in the cut but I got the best that was left, and currently making my crappy Gumbo trying to improve it.

Cheap ass chicken thighs from Costco. Experimenting with a new injection. Pineapple juice, soy sauce, rub and butter. Turned out well. Real juicy and tender meat.
Will try it this weekend on a whole pork loin. |

No pics. I picked up a brisket flat over the weekend (brisket is bloody expensive down here; I got it on sale for $5.89/pound). I keep experimenting with the new Pit Barrel Cooker, trying to find the right mix of charcoal and wood.
Under their instructions, you use charcoal and if you must, a small handful of chips. It keeps a constant temp on that, and they say if you monkey with it it'll burn hot. Despite what the company says, it's doing great as I add more wood. This was probably the best thing I've cooked in it, and it's the first thing I've done that had a distinct "smoked" flavor vs. "grilled" flavor. I did probably 30 percent apple wood chucks in this last go, and it's the best yet. The PBC cooks hotter by design, and it stayed right around 315 for 4-5 hours before I took the brisket out. |
I feel ya. Brisket is going for $9-12/lb here which goes completely against the soul of bbq. I broke down and found a place that would sell me just a point the other weekend so I could have some decent ends. Around here, we seem to have a combo of Eastern block butchers that have 100 different kinds of sausage but look at you funny if you ask for a brisket point and these hotshot boutique butcher/craft cocktail/small plate/DJ's on the rooftop at night y'all! places that make me want to start disgorging fools with my Victorinox.
Anyway, I lean spicy with my bbq but the wife says she wants sticky sweet ribs this weekend so that's I'm going drink a bunch of pineapple juice the night before I make these spicy ribs. |

It's impossible to find a point down here at all. The place I usually special order things from won't even order me a whole brisket because they won't be able to get rid of the others in the case. |

I wish. Down here, they guy actually told me they won't order it because people down here don't know how to cook it. |

I am guessing the ad I see for brisket sold in a bag for $2.99/lb is not the quality you are looking for?

Grilling chicken breast now. Bourbon chicken seasoning, parsley , sage wrapped in foil.

That's a butcher pack? Pretty much what you'd buy anywhere. And that price matches what I saw when I was in Missouri over Christmas. |
