No brisket...

 

Savages

 

I know. This is the East and the North, so we're screwed both ways. We don't know shit about beef. They don't even use a knife to slice pit beef here. They use a meat slicer, WTF, as if it were a delicatessen.

maybe we'll all follow you to the great state of Texas!

 

Big state, with plenty of room, and tons of good food

 

No, I'm serious! I want to follow you to Texas! I had some Blacks BBQ dino ribs and homemade jalapeno sausage recently. I've never had anything so good. It was gift a sent to me from one of my Texas brothers.

I wish I knew why brisket isn't that popular here. Now that its winter and I don't have to deal with the bugs it's grilling season for me. I bought a bunch of seasoning from our guys at Pitfaced BBQ and trust me, I will be enjoying some brisket!

Have a safe trip!

 

If you ever make it to New England, there is 2 spots, that are excellent.

And thanks. My last vacation was 6 years ago

 

I respect that MD has their own style of smoking beef and I love horseradish so I’ve been on a pit beef kick. Do prefer brisket and I have to say that the best I’ve had here is Misson BBQ which isn’t best by any means.

 

I thought you were driving to Texas soon, this month?

 

Mornin' John

 

Yeah, I grew up eating Tulkoff's horseradish. It's hard to find now. The processing plant was in Canton on Highland Avenue south of O'Donnell Street. You could smell it miles away.

You'd think all horseradish was created equal but it's not.

It's a must on a pit beef sandwich!

 

Rob you need to get yourself a smoker

 

Yep. Road trip home for Xmas... Coming right back. Im up in thsi frozen wasteland for work. Hate it. But, 18 months, and I can head home.

 

Ok, I reread your post. Duh. You meant it has been 6 years since the last trip home.

Well damn then! That's a long time to be away. I'm happy for ya that you will be there for the Holidays! When I was younger was a way a lot and missed out on a lot of things. Sure, I knew what was going on but it's the same as experiencing it first hand.

Shame you have to come right back..........play a lotto ticket while you're there.

 

My buddy up on the mountain has a "Big Green Egg" smoker, that thing is bad ass. He always slow cooks us something for dinner after a day of riding the trails.

 

I personally have the Green Mountain Grills Daniel Boone Wifi model, and it has consistently put out great meat for me. I love that it regulates temperature itself without me having to worry about it since I am rarely home for 12 hours straight to tend to a pork butt or brisket.

I am constantly amazed by those ceramic smokers (like the big green egg) though. You can put some lump charcoal in with a couple pieces of wood for smoke and that thing will run for a VERY long time on just that small bit of fuel. Depending on the brand though, pricey. But they do last a long time.

 

Yea his wasn't cheap. He'll put a pork butt on in the morning and slow cook it all day while we're out riding. Its delicious, specially with a cold beer. A few of the Maryland TW guys on this thread have been over his place with me to shoot, eat & BS around the firepit. Always a great time.

 

That sounds like a great day!

 

Hahaha, sorta.
Last time I took vacation... decided to stay. Came back here, tied up loose ends, and moved back.
Work slowed way down, got an offer up here, and here I am. Been back 3.5 years. In another 1.5, I can make a change, and maybe move back.
But, also on the table is south eastern virginia, and northeast North Carolina....

And... I just realized I am in a Maryland thread.....
