A local chain that has a meat counter has pork briskets in their sale ad this week. I've never seen one available, but I'm always ready to smoke anything pork. Anyone have any experience? How does it...
It is basically a fatty ham. You can compare it to beef rib tips in a way. I don't think there is much of a reason to stock up unless you don't have regular access to this cut. I pay no more than about $1.79/lb at the butcher. It smokes up real nice, but is a little awkward to work with due to the strange shape. I always try to go for a better cut of meat, but if you do it right, it can come out real tasty.
