I put a 14 pound brisket in yesterday at 4 pm. I am thinking I can cook it to 190, then just open the door and let it freeze. The temperature is about 19 here on the deck of the house.That is cold for these here parts.
It isn't much fun going outside in your jammies to test for "done-ness".
I cut a pound of fat off, I think,and left it outside in a pie pan for the birds.Do you think they will eat suet without it being rolled in seeds?? LOL. If not, the possums probably will.
