    No big city has as big of a barbecue culture as Memphis. Austin is a latecomer to the game. There is a reason the Memphis in May barbecue contest is the Super Bowl of all bbq competitions. Most of you have no knowledge of our cultural foodways and how our traditions came to pass and recency bias is a real issue with some of you.

    Whatever, Memphzilla...

    I put my brisket on at noon on Friday and it's resting by midnight.  It's ready for lunch on Saturday.  

    Yah but most of my bbq is for Sundays, just how it lines up if we're doing something on Saturday. If I can get one on early on a Saturday I might try this out.

    Foil boat and a 12+ hour heated rest @ 155 degrees in a counter top turkey roaster.  Even better is to rest it in a sous vide.  You can do everything wrong and those two things will get that brisket to well above Rudy's quality. Get most things right and those two things turn that brisket up to 11 on par with Franklin.  I thought the foil boat was gimmicky until I tried it. 

    Check out Chud's BBQ on Youtube for details. 

    Man I'd love to do a 12 hour heated rest but ffs I'm trying to eat at some point during my weekend. It's a wonder anyone put out any good brisket at all before the youtubes (we did, but there's so much info available to us these days).

  4. Studying this thread hard AF. Cool to see KN in Cuero getting some due. Grew up on their burrito plates, fish burgers and frosty mugged root beers. Their burgers were good, but not the main attraction. 20 years ago they were using some brisket trim from one of the local BBQ places in their burgers, but that was back when my mom's cousin and his wife still owned it. Believe they've sold since then but it's still cookin'.

    For warming up, I use a little bacon grease on the bottom of the pan. 2-3 secs/side.

    Easy peasy. Do it right and a quick wipe and warm of the cast iron and you’re done.

    my wife uses the sauce to warm them up. Seems messy, but, that's what she does.

     Stick to fucking up pizza and hot dogs, you Midwest douchebags."

    What's funny about this, is that it is widely accepted that deep dish pizza was created and first sold by native Texan and all-american offensive lineman for the University of Texas Longhorns, Ike Sewell.

    Now official to Nebraska. I think the video may have all of his highlights. Hard worker, I hopes he gets the hands part down and has a good season, while NU loses most of their games (I believe they do have Oklahoma this year).

     

    Phew, had me worried for a second when this thread popped up

    Last time I was looking for turkey breasts, it was cheaper to purchase a fresh, whole turkey.  It was around the holidays, so there were fresh birds around.  I separated the breast and cooked those as I had intended.  I also smoked the wings, thighs, and drumsticks for future use.

    You can also buy the frozen bone-in and separate 'em yourselves. I wish they did more fresh, though, as thaw time blows.

  9. Normally I'll do the patty melt. Maybe the hatch green chile burger when it's that time of year. I can't tell you the last time that their fries have been good at our Whataburger. I'm talking double-digit visits over the past couple of years and the fries have not been good once. They're never fresh, and mostly it seems we're getting sharp pointy end pieces you could use for a prison shank. If it's my choice, I only choose whataburger for breakfast hours and get a ssg/egg/cheese biscuit and a taquito, as they've managed to not screw that up... yet. Buuut the kids like the chicken strips and gravy, so we do still go. 

    I'll be surprised if they even serve fancy ketchup in a few years with how many other ketchups they keep trying to shove down our faces.

    Here come the pussies crying about a perfectly reasonable post. 

    If you're so scared of everything that you were nervous that Bijan Robinson was transferring after the deadline so he'd have to sit out a season in his contract year after recently signing a huge and public NIL deal with a local Lamborghini dealership then the problem isn't a thread being posted on, the problem is that you're a giant pussy.

    1. Maybe he blew'd out his knee

    I can never find a boneless turkey breast.  I know that's what most bbq joints use, anyone know where to find them?

    Always been hard for me to find also, so I'll grab the 3lb turkey breast roasts from HEB sometimes (all white breast meat). I'll do a 5hr-ish brine on them and season and smoke them still in the net-trussing. Turn out great every time. That's what I do for Thanksgiving now, too.

    Each recruiting class is a spectrum between best case and worst case. Currently Texas is trending more towards the best case, but the coaches will need to close out Arch Manning and then win the games they’re supposed to this fall. Do that, and we’ll see some surprises that are currently hard to visualize.

    True or false, Texas will land:

    Cedric Baxter

    GH: False. Tashard Choice has Texas truly in the thick of this one. Florida and Miami close to home with new coaches and year one momentum will make it difficult.

    JW: False. Texas loves him but pulling from Florida will be tough.

    EN: False. I can see him at Texas, especially with Bijan Robinson setting a perfect example of what it’s like to be the lead back at UT. That said, it’s one thing to pull a five-star running back out of Arizona, but something entirely different to pull one out of Florida. I do like that UT doesn’t appear to be battling with Georgia or Alabama.

    Jalen Brown

    GH: False. A “must get” recruit for Miami. Doesn’t mean he’s going to Miami, but this is a big one for the Hurricanes. LSU and Texas are expected to receive OV’s, however.

    JW: False. He really likes Texas, but others appear more appealing.

    EN: False. This is another recruitment where UT has a lot in its favor, other than proximity, and should be able to make things interesting. It’s just hard to win these recruitments absent home field advantage.

    Anthony Hill

    GH: False. But this one will be close. Too much on the line. Texas vs. Texas A&M with Oklahoma and Miami strong. Alabama and USC on the peripheral, for now. Continue to hear close to home at end of the day.

    JW: False. But I’m open to switching to true under the right circumstances.

    EN: True. That isn’t to say Texas leads as of today, but I think UT’s class is going to get a big bounce and the seasons sets up pretty well, mostly thanks to the offense. Hill notices the opportunity for immediate snaps.

    Derion Gullette

    GH: True. Texas continues to be a constant in this recruitment. One person close to the recruitment believes Texas wins out over Texas A&M, Alabama, and Ohio State at the end of the day.

    JW: True. Texas is trending nicely.

    EN: True. The staff is handling this recruitment wisely and Gullette knows he has two potential paths to the field.

    David Hicks Jr

    GH: False. Texas will get the On3 Consensus 5-star on campus in June, and very likely for an official visit in December. With that said, there is a lot of work to be done with Oklahoma and Texas A&M way out in front.

    JW: False. Too many programs higher on his mind.

    EN: False. Texas is trailing too much as of now for me to make a bold prediction, but Hicks is listed because I expect this recruitment to get more interesting down the stretch.

    Malik Muhammad

    GH: True. The recent visit put this recruitment back on track. It also helps somewhat A&M has two corners committed, including Muhammad’s teammate Jayvon Thomas, and is still going after Javien Toviano.

    JW: True. But it’ll take a strong summer courtship. Fortunately it seems to be trending that way.

    EN: True. This is a kid who profiles to Texas, just like much of his family. In fact, he has multiple cousins at Texas currently. He’s viewed as both a good program and scheme fit. Sark and Chris Gilbert have assisted Terry Joseph here.

    Markis Deal

    GH: True. The competition is hammering Texas not having a player drafted on this recruitment. Close to home will win out at the end of the day. That’s good news for TCU, Texas, and maybe Oklahoma. Deal is expected back on campus this summer.

    JW: True. Texas just needs to stay the course, and remain open on DL possibilities.

    EN: True. Key here is Texas being happy to take him for his preferred position of defensive tackle.

    Let’s get seven more for tomorrow.

    Surprised how optimistic they are about Muhammad

    Same here. That is interesting. 

  13. It's interesting that him visiting USC again + reportedly a Bama visit is getting the "shit, it's over," vs. just him visiting USC again. 

    Honestly, I've never felt we'd get him, but it almost makes me feel better that he'll have more to think about with an extra visit, because USC seemed like the pretty clear destination before the Bama visit was announced. Not that I believe he'll choose Texas....
