I love Costco!
Yes, I had Costco where I lived before, and the meat was good there. We don't have one yet but there are always rumors one is coming sometime. I am going to look again today at a different wholesale type place. Also, I don't know how the Sobeys guy was going to cut it. There is a thick end and flat end. To me they should be priced differently/lb however I don't know which end I'd like?
 
Happy birthday to me. Les the a while brisket cooked light the chart to eating in under 90 minutes. I smoke them at 226-250 until they hit 130. Then I pull the deflectors and get the grill hot to sear them off. They were every bit as good as filet. I had 3.

Lamb loin $8 per pound.
Happy Birthday, everything looks great.

Fired up the electric egg and did chicken. The smoking pellets in my stainless steel tube were basically on fire at the end and major smoke.
Getting hard to post and read.I have an ad taking up half my screen :(

It looks great, about how long did they take?

I plugged it in and warmed it up for about an hour. Put them on and the temperature was about 250F (the pan and chicken are cold and need to warm up). After about an hour the temperature started to creep up to 280F. I only have 1600W, so basically it was on full the entire time. I usually don't add BBQ sauce, but it makes it look better. I added that at 1.5 hours in. After 2 hours I unplugged it and coasted for 15 minutes. I was done perfectly. I had the smoking pellets in from the beginning. To my surprise they ignited in the end and I had major smoke. The beauty of the egg is that it is airtight, so you don't dry your food out. With my electric it's even better because it's totally closed up. I have to start using less pellets though or open up the top vent if they ignite or I will over smoke them. I am waiting for the right brisket to come along, but I bought a blade roast to try this weekend. The chicken was only $8.60 CAD on sale.

A new staple on the wife and I's dinner menu (featuring some nice lighting from the skylights). Ground chicken Caesar pizza. The ground chicken is the crust and a Caesar salad on top. Absolutely delicious!

Just put on a brisket that I got on sale. It's been a couple of years since I've smoked one.
On at 4pm ADT at 225F. 11.8 lb $7 per pound CAN$
Cheated on the rub. I have my own blend of 8 spices, but this rub was on sale.
As I get older, I can find all the shortcuts.
It would be too big to fit in my pan, so I made a roast.
I could have froze half, but I can freeze the cooked meat anyway, which is great to bring on trips.
I will update tomorrow after it smokes all night.
