Knows what a fatty is.
I've always been one to say the bad Q is better than no Q, until yesterday...
My brother in law had the entire family over for BBQ. He proudly stated the he had been cooking since 6:15am. I'm thinking "It's almost noon, what's for lunch." Since the brisket won't be ready for hours.
Lo, and behold, he pulled the brisket out -- sliced and ready to serve. It had already had time to cool, so it had been off the fire for some time. I'm guessing (cause he won't give me his secrets) that the total time on the grill was maybe 4 hours.
Needless to say the meat was horrid, tough, and flavorless. After his first bite he said, "Now, that's good BBQ, I'd put it against any restaurant's BBQ."
Not all was lost, at least his homemade sauce had good color, no flavor, but good color.
OUCH!
Thanks for letting me vent, it's no use trying to educate him, so I just choked it down and grinned. :icon_bugeyed
