Happiness is...n't!
 

The shock and awe, AND disbelief I witnessed this morning was mortifying.
After a grueling 9hr brisket(9.5lb flat) cook with all the sides, countless beers and careful dedication to keeps the temps spot on, I awoke this morning to find no one put the leftovers away...GASP!!!
I am so bummed. Was looking forward to making briskie sammys to share with my cohorts at work. Looks like its back to Raman noodle today.

How many of my fellow brethen have done this faux pas?

Guilty----not the way to start the day :cry:

Nope:doh::whistle::whistle:

Sorry for your loss, beer will do that to you

I woke to something similar today but it was a whole fridge of stuff...

Sorry for your loss!

ha! the wound is mad salty now :wink:

that sucks tho, obviously. effort and money aside...eating brisket is better than most things on a day.

Happened to me a couple weeks ago. Wife put the meat in the oven (off) so the dog would not get to it while we cleaned up everything else. Forgot about it and woke up the next morning and remembered.

I too was once bitten by the non-refridgerated leftover bug.

The trick is learning the lesson once....
Been there... left it out too.

Yep done it. :(

so wait...just cuz you left stuff out overnight u throw it out?

Guilty more than once--in my 55 years of BBQ'ing. Still hurts.

I haven't done it with BBQ, but I forgot to put away a whole pot of chili once.

Once is the key :-D

I probably have, I don't remember.

Amazingly, my dad would leave stuff out, then eat it the next day. And he never got food poisoning, it was amazing

When I could still eat pizza I would get a little ticked if you put the left overs in the fridge...makes it get stiff and funky.

It's good to be carefull but I'd be sniffing the brisket leftovers and making a call.
