I will tell you when someone told me to bring a brisket to a pot-luck BBQ when I moved here, I was stumped. I thought—why would anyone bring a brisket to a BBQ? So one day, about 7 years ago I stopped at this barn building that advertised awesome BBQ in rural agricultural Florida. There it was on the menu at a BBQ place—brisket. So I got it and it was "meh!" It was a texture thing more than anything. I couldn't understand what all the commotion was about. That was the first and last time I ever had it. I see now, or perhaps I just notice it now, when I work out of state in places like NC, Texas, MO, Iowa. |

I really hate that brisket got so expensive, what I used to buy for $15 to $20 is now easily $40 plus. I guess that can be said for all beef, at least chicken and pork haven't doubled or tripled in price. I'm just not into pork other than bacon and maybe country style ribs in the crockpot.
Edit: I do like pork ribs but smoked, cooking in the oven doesn't do it for me. Last edited by Buzz; 06-09-2015 at 05:42 PM.. |

Only try BBQ brisket in Texas or KC. Memphis and the Carolinas (and God for it Alabama or ***Florida) know nothing about beef; get pork.

It was actually a gal from Texas who asked me to bring that brisket to a BBQ—now that I think of it. |

Well, just remember, most people here aren't from Florida. I've yet to meet a single person from KC—let alone Kansas or even MO. A few from Texas and Cali, but not many. It's mostly N'oreasters and Northern MidWesters, even Pennsylvania.

I'm surprised chicken hasn't gone nuts. The bird flu has murdered a ****TON of birds. I mean millions. |

$40??? Brisket is $10/lb in Chicago. Thats easily a $100+ brisket before you have to spend 10+ hours getting it tender enough to eat.

Let's get this thread back to pictures, recipes and meals! Too much jibberish!
Sunday night I broke open a value pack of 3.7 pounds of Chicken Breasts with Rib Meat. It was only $9.70 for the whole pack. I spent about 1/2 hour trimming them all up to remove any fat, cartilage fragments, and silver skin. There was 5 in the pack. I then cut into cubes about the size of a golf ball. I pulled out the wok and only added canola oil to the hot wok and salt and pepper to the cubed breasts. As I stirred fried them in small batches, I also started two Indian simmer sauces in separate pots from Harris Teeter, a Korma sauce that was Coconut Curry flavored and a Tikka Masala sauce that was tomato and chili powder based. I also cooked a box of Zatarain's Caribbean Rice. Once the chicken was 90% cooked, I added most of the meat to the two sauces split 50/50 to simmer and finish cooking. I put the last 10-15% of the chicken in tupperware with a little sesame oil for leftovers. In the wok I then added 1 1/2 white onion sliced and sliced strips of one red pepper, one yellow pepper and one orange pepper to saute with canola oil, salt, pepper, and garlic powder, adding water from time to time. It took about 15 minutes to cook down. I also took a can of Margaret Holmes Triple Succotash and added it to the Tikka Masala mix. Lastly in my toaster oven I took 3 flour tortillas and toasted them until they puffed up and got color. It was an incredibly flavorful meal and I really impressed myself. The photo is the leftovers. http://grocery.harristeeter.com/pd/H.../072036706614/ https://shop.harristeeter.com/store/...8-AF62E970711D |

I think it's coming, I used to buy chicken at 99 cents a pound on sale, up to $1.49. Eggs have gone up the same. |

It's one reason I eat Vegan or Vegetarian a couple nights a week—at least.
