Title: Kanye West not allowed to cut in line at Franklins
Post by: rollntider on January 27, 2016, 06:19:57 PM
QuoteToday, Manny Fernandez filed a New York Times story tracking a day in the life of Austin's most committed brisket enthusiasts, checking in with the international lineup of BBQ hunters who start queuing as early as 7:43am for the 11am opening.

One of the best tidbits in the piece, however, is when GM Benjamin Jacob reveals just how serious the barbecue's joint's no-cutting policy is.

I plan on it one day. We have pork here which I love, but I do love some brisket.

pork as in roast? I have a great pork rub mixture, but can never get it done just right, thus far anyway.

pork shoulder / Boston Butt yeah I guess some call it roast? The key to a good pork butt if you are having trouble is try this... I bet you would like it. It has worked for me.

I put it on my grill indirect heat and cook it about 3 to 4 hours 250-275  degrees. (this gets the smoke flavor)

Then I put it in the oven for another 5 hours at 275 (you can do it lower for longer)

then wrap in aluminum foil and wrap with towels and put it in a cooler and let "rest" for an hour or 2.

Pull it out put in a pan and the bone should pull out with no issue and you can tear apart with a fork.

Its some good eating.

Yea bone in pork shoulder.
I'm almost with you there except I go longer on the grill. Mine usually ends up a touch dry.
