Re: Angus briskets at Houston Koger
Sure wished my freezer hadnt went to freezer heaven a year or two back. I would be stocking up too. I have wound up with a grand total of one thus far and it Excell select..and the warden seems to be demanding I cook it for July 4th. Tole her I might cook it on the gas grill. Save having to lug around all that wood and charcoal and stuff. Whutcha think?

It was .99 /lb with 10.00 purchase. Got a 15lb and a 12 lb that I have to cook tomorrow for the 4th. Dad bought them and cut them in 1/2. So now I have a 6 lb and a 7 1/7 that I seasoned and dad did the thick side. He wanted me to cook at 150* and do 1/2 way I told him I would do the cooking. Gonna be a long night tomorrow. I have to work the 3rd and 4th...gonna be a long day tomorrow. Thinking of tater skins..but I'll do another thread on that. Gotta have potato salad so why not. had to edit this, was a limit of 2 but thats not bad.

Well I went out there and checked out the logistics and one will fit but not two. May just hook up my Big Jim Lazy Q burner to Fred and do two. It sure do like to drink up that propane is the only problemo. Problem on the real gasser is to get enough smoke to it. I have to see whut the weather gonna do tomorrow.

The Krogers in our area had the same deal. BUT, since I am new at this I was lost, why? Well, I heard it is a good brisket if you could fold it in half. Well, the ones that were .99 cents had ALOT of fat on them. BUT, I also have heard that is full of flavor. Since they had so much fat it was hard to fold them. BUT, the briskets beside those were 1.99 but had very little fat, and were easily folded. So what is a newby to do when you have a situation like that. I was lost at the meat counter, no one to call, no one to ask.

Packers (whole brisket with the flat and point) can be a bit fatty. Some guys go for "choice" over "select". Guess'n they got a "prime" brisket too, but I don't pay too much attention to it. I've done some "select"s that tasted better than the "choice" that I've gotten from time to time. The key is low and slow, bring 'em up to at least 195 and then a long rest. Just my .02

At .99/lb I found a few good ones but you can't complain when they're that cheap and you can trim them up. I cooked them a little longer than I wanted to and they were all fall a part tender and tasted great. I still have 2 in the freezer. By the way Krogers also had NY strips on sale the other day in Kingwood for $3/pack with 2 per pack. They over stocked in case of the strike and then it didn't happen. So they sold for cheap before they went bad. I think they had ribs too. A friend told me about it but the freezer here is full right now. Wish I had room.
