Stillwater Ok Blazathon 4/1 - 4/2

Guess no one else is going.

I'll be there next weekend, in Stillwater Oklahoma, stop on buy if you're in Oklahoma.

After I read your post and you mentioned wet aging, I had to look it up. Yoy say your people let that brisket age like that for 30 days. How long can you or should you go? I have had my briskets sit in the fridge for 4 weeks (yes it was between 32-36) and my wife would say I better cook that or it will go bad. So if it's sealed in its cryovac bag, how long is safe?

Some folks let them go well past two months,if you can keep them cold enough.

We keep our comp briskets about 33�,for about 6 weeks.

Smell it and you can tell.

Open and rinse well.

It should be beefy.

Hey Russ I know it is early but are you planning on going to Great Bend in July? Randy ( Stone Blue Q) and I are making the Trek out there. I just sent our entry in? We planning on having a little shore lunch featuring Minnesota famous Walleye and Crappie.

Hey Ray,

How 'ya been?

Not probably going to GB. I've got a contest planned on 7/1 in Sapulpa Ok and one on 7/15 in Anthony Kansas and two that month might be it, but you never know...

Tell me about it.

How about Des Moines for the Pork BarbeQlossal? I will be down there with our Bavarian BBQ Boys team. I wish we could get down by you guys more often, but maybe next year we will plan a few down your way. Hope to meet you one of these days.

Did the BarbeQlossal last year with FE. It's a little different contest as you also have to cook a whole hog. I can handle the other categories, but I'm not wild about trying to create Candy's method of hog in a FE and don't want to have to trailer a Whole Hog cooker up there for that.

But it was a fun time, make sure you get a slot on the south side, the booths on the north are very hot that time of year.
