The house of sausage has nothing to do with BBQ'ing.

Hijacking bullshit thread to ask a related question.
How does one smoke a brisket to be rare or medium rare? I did one the other day, it turned out well done. I've never had a problem with the "one hour per pound" rule before. I was smoking it at 215-240, depending on if it had been recently fed more fuel.

>brisket
>rare

what?

>>12199244
brisket is way too tough to be cooked rare it will just suck ass
if you're saying the meat was too tough it needed to cook far longer, brisket usually smokes for like 6+ hours at a lower temp.
if it was too dry then your temp. was too high, do lower for longer

>>12199291

also you're gonna want to brine that sucker for a few days

>>12199328

Brine.

Add aromatics of your choosing such as peppercorns, bay leaf, coriander seed, mustard seed, star anise, dried chilis, whatever complements your rub or sides youll be eating with.

Obviously scale this recipe down to at least half for all of your intents and purposes, that recipe covers 4-5 15-20lb briskets if memory serves.

>>12199291
No, it was nice and moist, I just didn't like the texture once it cooled off. Maybe brisket isn't my thing.

>>12199343

oh, and curing salt is sodium nitrite. not sodium nitrate or sodium hydrochloride.

>>12199345
It is a little uniquely grainy but it should be extremely tender also if it's cooked correctly

You should try some short ribs, though, they'll also take far less time to smoke.

>>12199369
It was definitely tender. I could pull it apart with my fingers once I sliced it up. I'm just so used to rare and medium rare beef that it threw me off, I guess. Not a fan of well done.
I've done ribs, roast beef, pulled pork, whole chickens, tri-tip, burgers, bacon wrapped sausages, and a few others. Brisket was new to me.

>>12199402
I'm really not sure what your complaint is then, that you didn't like the color? Different cuts of meat behave differently, cooking brisket correctly is totally different than correctly cooking a strip steak.

>>12199402

>i need all my meats rare!

fuck you, dude. ever had short rib? pork spare ribs? pork or beef cheek? lamb or beef tongue? pastrami? corned beef?

god damn you are one stupid motherfucker

>>12199343
why do you need ice for the brine?

>>12199402
Rare and medium rare chuck is literally the worst way to serve it. Its so tough

>>12199458

you could substitute it for water but it's simply more pragmatic to add the ice in to cool the liquid down so you can dump it right over the brisket bois

>>12199470

shit, i didn't specify that you boil all ingredients first. it's kind of implied by the inclusion of aromatics, but i apologize for not explicitly stating so.

>>12199426
There's a flavor that goes with rare meat that I like. Well done has a different taste to it. I was hoping it would be rare, after trying so many dried out hunks of crap briskets that other people have made. That's all. Thanks for the tip about brining, and the brine recipe. I just wet rubbed it, pulled it halfway, wrapped it in butcher paper with butter on top of the meat, and cooked it the rest of the way in the paper.
>>12199445
I prefer it. I don't like well done as a general rule. The brisket I cooked was good, I just would've preferred rare to medium rare.
Haven't had the cheeks or those tongues, though I've had pork tongue. It's good. Pastrami and corned beef are delicious, but it's a different texture and they have spices that make up for the loss in flavor.
So go fuck yourself with a kitchen knife, you dumb cunt.

How psychopathic does people have to be to have a debate on how best to burn the flesh of an animal?

>>12199490

>makes brisket without knowing how it's supposed to taste
>asks how to cook it rare
>complains about it not being good even though he supposedly did it right

>chickens
>sausage
Lmao almost fell for the bait.

>>12201067
To be clear, I was stating that I'd smoked those. I haven't cooked them rare. That would be stupid.

>>12200935
>use your own logic

>its not fair!!!!

My company produces certified organic and cruelty free and non gmo Cbd and deodorant. It’s all bullshit to be honest.
