Wow, is everyone foiling these days?
Well, I just read this on the local website about our local champion
barbecue team. http://www.woai.com/entertainment/st...XVzkylL4g.cspx or http://tinyurl.com/mk95f4 I have seen them before, and they don't give away much info, just really vague information. "Yeah, you could use that if you wanted, go ahead and experiment if you like, try this and see how you like it, I don't know why that wouldn't work" kind of replies. Always vague and deferential, and NEVER any real details. But they are very well liked around here because the compete and organize events and give almost all the money to charity. Apparently, just great guys. Here are their bonafides: http://www.woai.com/content/blogs/li..._ufiBZECg.cspx or http://tinyurl.com/ma92t3 *************** My point being, they aren't pikers, beginners, or just lucky. Crap, they beat out 300 teams at the rodeo alone to get that one crown. They also have rooms full of trophies from other events as well. So in reading their blurb on cooking, I saw that they foiled a brisket. I haven't ever heard of anyone foiling <<a whole brisket>>. In Texas? Is this a trend? A winning secret? Does this reflect a change in the taste buds of judges? Do judges want the brisket to have the texture of pullable pork? And how do you get any kind of lightly crunchy bark on a brisket that you foil for 2 - 3 hours to braise in its own juices? For 35 years, I thought the only debate on a great brisket was "fat up or down" and "what temp". But foil? Anyone? Robert |

I'm thinking this is one of the events that the public chooses the winner. The winner is the one with the most sugar in the sauce. The crowd that east steamed ribs thinking theyare great because the mushy meat fall off the bone and they are covered in a sweet sauce. |

Maybe I shouldn't say surprised as much as disappointed. I'm doing ribs this weekend for about 20 people and am thinking maybe I should just get a big bottle of Kraft if that's what people like. Me, I'll have mine dry or with a chipotle salsa. Sweet sells because people like sweet. It's the lowest common denominator. Individual tastes vary but the majority rules. Cam |

Not so much that they want to turn the meat into mush, but to balance the smoke flavor; they need to to turn it off, and prevent oversmoking. It does have the effect of steaming the meat, but that is usually overcome by slicing the meat thicker to hold it together, and using it as a component in the cook to keep a balance of heat/smoke-foil so it comes out right. Not to be outdone, most of these cooks inject their briskets as well. (They use FAB.) Nothing pure about competition bbq, Robert. Pierre CBJ |

I swear if I closed my eyes and had apiece, it was like eating turkey. No foil for me either. Joseph > -- > Dave > What is best in life?

"Dave Bugg" > wrote in message ... > > I've never 'foiled', and I doubt that I ever will. I don't like the taste > or the texture of foiled meat. I have, and pretty much regretted it every time. I usually foil when I'm casually smoking, and occupied with other stuff. friends are coming for dinner and oh crap the brisket has been stuck at 170 for four hours. I have seen really great competition teams that foil as part of their process, but I always seem to overdo mine. Nothing turns a piece of BBQ from sublime to really good so quick as foiling. |
