What's that you're eating?

Sigh it was the worst brisket cook I've ever had

Oh well at least I had a reason to stay up and drink beer lol

Me: scrolling through all applicable threads looking for this brisket, that I’m somehow invested in now, after being out of service most of the day, only to find this. Well it’s the journey not the destination I guess. Better luck next time.

It is what it is!

I'll find uses for it!

(Has great bark and flavor just a bit dry)

The wife wanted Coq Au Vin for dinner tonight.

Had to look it up. Hundreds of ways to do it. I rendered 1/4 lb of Hempler’s applewood smoked bacon in the pot, pulled it out and then crisped the chicken skins in the bacon grease. Then I pulled the chicken out and added pearl onions, button mushrooms, and carrots to brown in the grease. Deglaze with bourbon. Added old red wine, consumé chicken bouillon, garlic cloves, fresh thyme, bay leaves, salt & pepper. Added the chicken and bacon back in and simmered for about two hours. Came out real nice. Fall-off-the-bone-tender. I thought it would taste overwhelmingly of red wine but it doesn’t. It’s just delicious.
 
It's 31° outside, but that makes the Korean BBQ short ribs even better...

Marinated overnight.
