Suggest a meat for me to test

Post by beginner »

Weathers getting better and I've acquired a mini fridge to do with as I wish, I'm thinking of running an extended marination or brining in there followed up with a slow cook and beers on a nice day. Will be cooking on mini WSM modded smokey joe. Any meat suggestions and/or preparation tips?

First of all I'd love to see some pics of your mini WSM. I love mine and take it camping all the time
It does a great pulled pork and brisket

Tripe.
Boil up some tripe then dice it up.
Then make a ragout in an open Dutch oven and smoke it away for several hours.
Something different and is on my list as I stupidly challenged myself :roll:
Did you know there is a tripe club? High falutin business men make up the members.
They take over a restaurant and get the chef to only serve tripe,,,, It's true,,, go figure

Would I lead you astray Chris ?
I want to join ,,,,Or start a chapter :lol: , Damn I'm sure after 2002 it's gone very deep underground,,, read backyard :lol:
I know if I was the chef that these lads hire I'd have a ball with it.
I also believe that the tripe club started in WA (figures) so do some more digging 8)

One of my favorite cured/brined cooks to date is a corned beef brisket. I've done it twice. Takes 5 days if I remember correctly. If you like corned beef, you'll never have better. If you want to smoke, you could make pastrami, which is fundamentally smoked corned beef.
