Wouldn't know my meat if I held it in...

[16Adams]

.....my own hand. Grabbed and ran with what I thought was a tri tip. Turned out it is a sirloin tip. Googled WTF to do with this 2.75# hunk of no fat meat. Decided on the Texas Go-To- chili. So seasoned it up good and have it in the smoker for a few hours being bathed in a mix of hickory and mesquite. Then I will cube or send thru the grinder- probably grind. I like playing with the machine.

See you in a couple hours

That isn't bad at all. More than a few years ago, I picked up a bag of frozen chicken breasts on the cheap among other items a butcher wanted to clear out. After the invites were sent and plans made, I defrosted them to discover that they were actually sheep brains. This was a few years before Google was even founded so alternative recipes were not as easy to find.

Couple hours in the smoke 280-325

Oh thank the Lord, I thought this was one of those TMI threads. :shocked:

 

[16Adams]

Goodness at 129 this was extremely tender and juicy. Cubed with my BA Knife (thanks ssv). Garlic onion Sucklebusters tomato sauce and chick stock.

 

[16Adams]

Cubed and everybody in the pot. You too Green Chile.

 

[16Adams]

Pretty colors

And the simmer. Quit looking Texans there's no beans.

 

[EdF]

Nice!

Should have left the filter off that one unless you are a UT fan :wink:

I like where this is going :grin:

Looks good Adams! I get sirloin tip from the cow I have butchered and find it a bit on the tough side. Going to give your idea a try when I get home.

 

[BillN]

Looks great, not sure I could have brought myself to cube up the hunk of deliciousness.

 

[bigdog10]

Wow gotta agree with BillN . that looks awesome!!!

 

[16Adams]

Agree with comments above. Think toughest sirloin you ever ate, but ate it anyway. The beef smoke flavor is spot on. Bride took half and ran thru food processor and returned to chili pot. So chunks in chili meat gravy. Really. Good. I'll do this again. A nice mistake.

 

[BillN]

Can't wait to see that on some dogs, burgers and chili cheese fries. Nice job.

 

[16Adams]

How about a cracker shot??

 

[BillN]

^^^^ Oh Yeah^^^^ The consistency looks perfect.

 

[PatAttack]

Adams, that would make some BA nachos, man!!

Too bad you're on a chip edict.:tape:

 

[16Adams]

I didn't even get to eat the cracker. Bride took it and handed me a pork skin :-(
