A breast is known to be the toughest piece of meat from the cow, even if
properly prepared and cooked meat can be better tasting and more tender
to eat ever. In this section I will show you how to choose, prepare and
Grilling a sternum, Texas-style, to get the best results. Please note
recipes for smoking the index on the right side of the page.
The choice of a good breast To Smoke
A chest is made up of twoParts, the flat and point. The flat section usually
has less fat, while the point should be significantly longer. The fat on top
the breast is called "fat cap" and should be white. The thickness of the fat
on top must be at least 1 / 4 of an inch thick and thicker is ok. When buying a
Chest, make sure that meat is a deep red color, representing the freshness and
ensure that it contains a lot of fat in the flesh, not onlyhigher.
The combination of deep red and the white fat of a breast is like
Marbling, and is the key to a good choice breast bbq. Since the chest is
thick as a piece of meat, the fat in the meat helps keep the
Wet-feeding while smoking.
Make sure that the chest has not been frozen. A frozen thorax is not shown, a deep
red, may obscure the fat instead of white, and the chest is not as
Notice andjuicy as a fresh after smoking.
If I choose a breast, I lift your chest to see half as flexible. I
sternum as stiff as a board, and some that are on each side of my curve
hand. The more rigid than likely have been frozen, and I noticed that
may not always be as tender as a rib cage that is more elastic. Some people do not agree
with this test, but I am firmly convinced, based on the results I get.
The weight of theChest was 8-11 kg. A bigger chest
takes longer to cook and the house can become more difficult or stringy because of the
longer cooking time.
Preparation of the breast
After selecting the perfect chest, I start my preparation process the night before I
Breast want to smoke. First make sure you have enough work space and a
prepare clean area on the chest. The chest has fat on them no more than
1 / 4 inch thick. Most often the fatnot allow the smoke to penetrate into the flesh
located under the fat. If the grease is too thick, cut 1/4- to reach the
Cm thick.
After cutting the chest, rubbing my chest down with mustard. Mustard
creates a sticky substance on the meat for the rub to stay, and also adds a
great flavor when combined with the problem. Rub the mustard all over the
meat, including fat, in order to cover the breast well. Theirdo not want the
Mustard layer is too thick, you should create just enough to make a paste for the rub
to maintain order.
I choose a rub on my chest instead of a marinade because I have found
Marinades that only about 1 / 2 inch deep into the flesh. We recommend
whichever method you like best, but I describe the method of rubbing.
Marinade and rub recipes can by clicking on the links.
After the completion of the rib cageApply mustard to rub on his chest. When you're done
properly, the hook should be evenly distributed layer of seasoning
Sternum.
Wrap the prepared breasts in plastic wrap or a similar material to seal, then
Refrigerator overnight.
BBQ Time
Remove the breasts from the refrigerator 1 hour before you want to put on
Smoke. Put the chest fat up to the smoker. Fat is the oil in the press
Their chestmoist during cooking.
I use a wood smoker with a firebox to provide indirect heat for outdoor cooking. I
I found this method to be the best, but there are many smokers no longer available
to choose from, such as water smokers, propane smokers, smoking, and coal.
I use mesquite breast smoking, because it provides a delicious smoky flavor,
burns hotter than wood is used less, and that's how we do it in Texas. Many people
Do not use mesquite, which is fine, and Ihave included a section for the selection of the wood
to give information about the different types of wood that are too good
Used for purposes of smoking.
For best results, cook the breast at 225 degrees for about 1 hour and
15 minutes per pound. Many variables also affect cooking time and temperature
such as how often the smoker is opened, as close to the chest, around the fire
Box, etc., but adherence to 225 degrees mn / 1 15 hr work. ManyPeople believe
that if the temperature inside the chest cavity has reached 180 degrees, it is made.
This is true and false. When the internal temperature is around your chest
180, the fat in my chest really starts marbleize. The chest is still
Temperature for a while ', and this increases the sensitivity of the breast.
I always use a mop sauce to adhere to the chest while she is smoking. This keeps the
outside the chest, juicy and tender.It 'important that the lid closed while
Breast smoking to reduce heat loss, so I baste the breast with the mop sauce
approximately every 45 minutes to 1 hour.
A great way to breast moist while smoking them is a rag, made use
Apple juice mixed with olive oil. There was a great flavor in the chest;
overwhelming, while the breast moist from the oil. An easy way to apply,
This broom is to put in a spray bottle and simply squirtthe sternum.
After 7 hours of smoke in the chest usually do not absorb much more. One possibility for
The completion is a case of wrap it in aluminum foil and place in oven at 225
Degrees for the remaining cooking time. I rarely use this method because I like
Smoking the chest for the full-time, but I used it and it works.
CUTTING Chest
ALWAYS slice the breast against the grain. This will make cuts
very tender. To do this,Remove the fat from the upper chest, the look
Grain in the meat and slice it.
I separate the point home, before I got my chest, because it cut the wheat
usually in the same direction in the apartment, and it is easier to see if
separately. The cut point is a bit 'more difficult to correct, because the grain runs in a
different directions. After some practice at carving the breast, you know what
DirectionGrain runs, and you will find it much easier.
Add your favorite barbecue sauce.
Perfect your techniques with smoke, and you win a contest at any BBQ
Time!
HAVE A GREAT BBQ!
