Cook brisket with the fat side up, so the fat melts and basts the meat as it flows down into the pan. It is also a good idea to have some of the fat removed by the butcher before beginning to cook it.

If a cow is pregnant how fat would she be?

She would only appear fat because of the size of her belly, not from the level of fat on her body, such as over the hips, ribs, and deposits on her rump and brisket. A cow with a huge belly but with ribs and hips showing is certainly not fat.


Is a horse fat?

Not all horses are fat. Ones that have overeaten (or have been pampered and fed too much) and haven't had proper exercise to keep them trim and in shape are indeed fat. Then you get horses that haven't eaten something proper in months and are at Death's door, and those horses certainly are not fat!


Bar-B-Q Brisket?

Ingredients1 brisket nose off or flat3 to 4 pounds 1/4 cup Head Country SeasoningHead Country Bar-B-Q SauceAsk your butcher for this particular cut of meat rather than using the fattier and much bigger packer trim brisket. Generously season the brisket with the Head Country Seasoning. Leave the fat cap intact and season it as well. Let marinate a minumum of one hour or overnight. Build a fire with good quality charcoal and well seasoned pecan wood. Let burn at least 30 minutes to burn off the lighter fluid fumes and start a good bed of coals. Place brisket away from direct heat and cook 3 hours at 250 degrees. After three hours wrap brisket securely in heavy aluminum foil. Baste with Head Country Bar-B-Q Sauce. Continue cooking for an additional 3 hours at approximately 325 to 350 degrees to tenderize until thermometer registers an internal temperature of 180 degrees. To serve remove fat cap and slice across the grain for the tenderest portions. Serve with Head Country Bar-B-Q Sauce.
