THE INCREDIBLE SHRINKING BRISKET — Ever see brisket at the supermarket and wonder why the price of smoked brisket from a good barbecue joint is so different? Well, aside from starting with a higher grade of brisket and the long smoking process, which averages around 12-16 hours, brisket loses a lot of weight along the way. Here’s an example from our brisket cook this week. (1) We start with a full, untrimmed packer-cut Certified Angus brisket at 18.2 lbs…Then (2) we trim that monster down, removing excess exterior fat and extraneous meat that won’t smoke well, ending up with a balanced, aerodynamic brisket ready for the smoker at 11.5 lbs… Finally, as the brisket smokes gently for hours and hours, it slowly shrinks as the fat renders, the connective tissues break down into delicious collagen, and the flavors concentrate into the rich, smokey, beefy end result we all look forward to…with a final weight of just 6.7lbs. That’s 37% of its starting weight!

Taking care of business down in Austin TX this week and got to spend a day with Sausage Sensei Bill Dumas at Brotherton's Black Iron Barbecue learning the art of Texas sausage-making from the master himself. Bill is a true artist, historian and gentleman, and I can't recommend his class enough for those that want to get started the right way with artisan sausage production.

Good morning, barbecue family! Daybreak here on the Beasty farm, and nine hours into a low, slow cook... 409 pounds of beautiful pork shoulder slowly transforming into succulent pulled pork for our sold-out preorders. This is my favorite part.. Feet up, cigar and coffee in hand, listening to all the little critters waking up across the quiet countryside...
