    I'm grinding Thursday. Beef not me.

    Got this today a 6+# Chuck Roast. We do P/U from local store. Advertised at 3-5#. This is a bit larger. So, the idea is/was to do 3 2# portions. Grind 2# and do Burnt Ends #2 maybe for SB and my wife gets the last 2# for whatever. My wife says, why don't you get another one next week for the B.E's. She wants to make a roast (slow cooker) to get my daughter to come over this weekend. I have no leverage on this so, I'm grindin' Thursday.

      That's a good looking roast. We also use food to get the kids to come over more often. We have a standing Sunday evening dinner but sometimes do Saturday brunch, usually balina (German pancakes), to get another day out of them.

              I would love to find a 6 pound chuck roast for that price. That would make a mountain of smoked shredded beef. I can just imagine all of the Birria Tacos I could make with it.

              I can only find 3 pound ones or smaller. and I seem to pay around $20 for them.

                Today, the new grinder arrived today. Thanks again Attjack. So I was going to get some chuck cuz I thought I only had one 4 oz. left. Tonight went into basement freezer. Well found 5 6 oz.'s. So chuck is out. I found a small brisket flat, 2# and short ribs 1.5# with bone. I thought with some reading that these could be a match. Brisket lean, short ribs fatty. Thoughts please.

                  We had burgers from chuck that I ground a couple of days ago. Seriously good. For the burgers I had a bit more fat than the usual 80/20. That left a pound of more lean chuck which I vac-sealed and it will be used probably next week for weeknight tacos.

                    I always try to do a 70/30 mix of chuck to brisket (or short rib). Gets nice and juicy yet gets that extra beefy flavor.

                      I highly recommend a chuck/brisket/short rib blend. Very tasty. Try for 30% fat (or more).

                    Grilla Pellet Smoker proves good things come in small packages

                    We always liked Grilla. The small 31.5″ x 29.5″ footprint makes it ideal for use where BBQ space is limited, as on a condo patio.

                    The Good-One Is A Superb Grill And A Superb Smoker All In One


                    The Good-One Open Range is dramatically different from a traditional offset smoker. By placing the heat source behind and under the smokebox instead of off to the side, Open Range produces even temperature from left to right, something almost impossible to achieve with a standard barrel shaped offset.

Broil King’s proprietary, dual-tube burners get hot fast and are able to achieve high, searing temps that rival most comparatively priced gas grills. The quality cast aluminum housing carries a Limited Lifetime Warranty.
