Or we could just call it corned beef haha. Anyways, i put on in a wet brine 5 days ago thinking it would be great to do it up on the weekend when i have time. Well i own a road construction company and when it rains, we get days off and when its sunny we work 12 hrs a day till it starts to rain. Long story short is its been raining for 5 weeks here and just stopped so we are working. I need to get up at 6am and i just recently received a WICKED cold from my 6 year old(thanks for sharing) that is knocking the crap out of me. I put the brisket in at 7pm thinking we wouldn't be working tomorrow but we got the go ahead about an hour after. So i guess what i am getting at is hopefully my wife will be nice enough to stay up till we see about 160 on the probe cause after all my cold meds, i won't make it haha. Keeping my fingers crossed that she can do it. On a side note she has been doing ribs for supper lately since i leave at 6am and get home at about 7:30 pm and i don't want to admit it but i think her last batch were the best we have had here...but lets keep that a secret ;)
Hopefully have something yummy to report in the near future.
Geez, working while you are sick is the pitts!
But the "BOSS" always has to work!
Hope you feel better and corned beef is mastered by the wife!
i got my fingers crossed on both of those. If the temp would stay a little cooler, i would leave it in the bradley overnight haha...same things as a fridge i bet
