Does Aaron Franklin's count?He's never had good brisket.
I never said it was not good, but there is pork that is every bit as good.

Sous vide makes it easy to get the perfect temp on thick steaks. It's really hard to cook a 2" steak properly without burning the outside or leaving the inside raw.Sous vide alone deletes the Maillard reaction, which is a centuries old and essential process for bringing out the full flavors of any meat and even breads. It's not the same as caramelization, but somewhat similar.
I suppose ne could sous vide, then drop it on a hot grill or pan for the MR, but what would be the point when a grilling or pan charring meat does the same thing in minutes.

That is sort of like the 4-H chicken I had as a teen. I finally chased down the recipe for the mix they sprayed on the 100's of quarters they made as it cooked over the coals. They turned it with the big wire things that they turn whole hogs with. It was the best I have ever had.Closest you will come to it is a church picnic some where.
Barely raw on the inside is different from an inch and a half of raw meat with a perfect sear on the outside.Leaving the inside just barely raw is the entire point of cooking the perfect steak.
Then the cook doesn't know what they are doing...Barely raw on the inside is different from an inch and a half of raw meat with a perfect sear on the outside.
There is nothing better than downing tasty ice cold white claw beverages whilst wearing flip flops, the kind with the strap between the big and second toe, manning the pellet grill. Best way to prepare an impossible burger, hands down. Every once in a while indulging in a Virginia slim 120 really makes it special. It's just what real men do.Breed has absolutely nothing to do with the taste of a steak. Aging, marinading, seasoning and how it is cooked is what makes a good steak. I will not use a gas grill, and pellet grills are used by dudes who drink White Claw. I always use mesquite for beef and chicken, hickory for pork. Our local Kroger has a "manager's section" in the meat department, where they have marked down items that are close to going out of date. if a steak starts turning the least brown, they put it in there and buy it. I will cook it in the next few days, and marinate it at room temperature for a few hours before I grill it. That being said, the best tasting, tenderest steak I ever had was in 1980, cooked on an open fire by a safari cook, cut from an old Cape buffalo bull I shot the day before. Leaving camp way before sun-up, and stalking maybe 10-12 hours a day, some days nearly 20 miles, in 100 degree heat for 10 days, may have had a lot do with the way that 2 lb steak tasted, though.
WTH, ketchup on a steak, that'll ruin it. I believe if a steak requires a sauce, it ain't much of a steak to start with.I have to have ketchup. Lol.
On just about everything especially steak, I can't eat it without it.
That has seemed to be the story I've heard a lot from folks that have bought the show type pigs. If I ever get the nerve up to fatten a few hogs, I'm going into the mountains here and buying pigs from folks that have been breeding their own stock, from more heritage type hogs.
The side pork is like the old Powder River saying, "too thick to drink and too thin to plow."It was someone who looked just like you who said, "This side pork was cut so THICK it's just awful" That is a stand alone declarative sentence.
Your statement implies the side pork is awful because it was cut THICK. Owing to the fact, you expressed an opinion the side pork was awful
because it was cut thick I brought up the subject of the knife. Always glad to help.. Now you raise the question, You smoke side pork before
breakfast? You are an early riser!
Definitely would enjoy that.. our steaks are cut about 3/4-1"thick which makes them easier/faster to cook.It takes some practice to get the time down but I what I do is basically smoke the steak low for around an hour, then get the fire hot and sear it.

Can't say as far as grass finished, although Holstein doesn't seem like the ideal type and kind to finish on grass to me.Has anyone tried Holstein x Wagyu ? Have a heifer on grass that spouse bought as whoops purchase.
Decent to eat?
Texas is a big state, as anyone who lives here will tell you at the least provocation. We do have good brisket here but I've had some of the worst tasting, toughest poor excuse for brisket here just the same. One place we eat regularly could easily pass their brisket for under done pot roast but their pork ribs are wonderful. I get some of the best BBQ brisket, pulled pork and ribs at little places that would go out of business pretty quick if they didn't serve good food. Still the best BBQ comes from my own Rube Goldberg contraption of a smoker.Granted, I've never had brisket in TX, but good pork bbq sliced or chopped is hard to beat.
I will say though that I was once pretty disappointed in North Carolina pulled pork. Their idea of bbq sauce was straight vinegar.
