... because I just walked away from a 20 pound Angus packer for $55. Damn thing had the flat profile of a skirt steak and it was really hard to tell how much point was under all the fat cap. I settled on a couple of skirts and some more chuckies, but to be honest, the freezer is starting to fill a bit with all my chuckie experiments. I suppose this weekend I will just live vicariously through shify..

Almost didn't because it was the last packer in the cooler, but no lie, I have seen beef jerky thicker than that flat and I have trimmed enough Packers to know how much fat was gonna wind up on the board. Based on thickness, the SV bath timing was, oh, 10 minutes.
Scotch: Current favorite- The Arran (anything by them), Glenmorangie 12yr Lasanta, sherry cask finished. The Balvenie Double Wood, also like Oban 18yr, and The Glenlivet Nadurra (Oloroso sherry cask finished) among others. Neat please.

Now I have an Anova sous vide, the Dragon blower and 2 Chef alarms from Thermoworks.
Well, not to dry brine a wound, but I have a 12lb post trim CAB brisket in the smoker over mesquite and oak right now that I paid2.09 a lb for... Drinking red dog saloon...
Spoken to a man drinking Blanton's last night to kill his sorrows..😘 Ate many a worm out of Mezcal back in the day also, so I'm not skeered to run with the big Dawgs.. bring some of those beans also... They will go well with the chuckies

Just think, you would have bought it and been P.O'd. Good call. Time to start eating out of your freezer. We did that a while back and we quit after like 3 weeks.
I start Jones'n for smoke after about 48 hours.. I just lost a bet with my wife that the chuckies could wait until tomorrow.. it's been a hard week and I am strugglin right now but I couldn't shake the image of that meat in the fridge.
see you gotta get them hooked too. my wife has it bad. we grill, or smoke 5-6 nights a week. Wait that means she never cooks dinner...who is the real winner here?
