Ok, , after I don't know how long bailing ship, - o-god-im-sorry, yes, it's a "thing" with me - I need you. Please? I bought a cow. Well not really, but I bought an 18 pound brisket, because my family of friends doesn't like turkey.
My turn on meat station. Turns out a bunch of "family" isn't coming. Sort of like real family, huh? So I've got this thing the size of a toddler and the shape of a semi-colon, with one end about 5" thick tapering down to 2" in my fridge, and it turns out I'm cooking for six, so I'll have to cook one end and freeze the rest.
I intend to use this recipe: http://tiphero.com/oven-barbecued-beef-brisket/
So, 1. do you approve of the recipe or do you have something even more awesome to recommend, and
2. Should I cook the thick "potroast" shaped end, or the 2" flat end? I think I have enough time to do either, but which end will make a better dish?
