I didn't pull plate ribs from vacuum sealed bag from store because my vacuum sealer is basic and bags are too small to reseal. So plate ribs have no seasoning. Brisket tips I hit with coarse kosher salt, so they are bathing lightly seasoned.

Experiment Saturday. Plate ribs and the tips of the waguy brisket are going to sous vide at 155 till tomorrow and then smoked for a couple of hours. The rest of the waguy is just getting smoked. Since it's Father's day weekend and IDGAF, I also have a large hen brining in a very simple brine. Happy father's day eve to all the fellow masochists.

Can you freeze and overnight me some wagyu? Jesus Christ that's cheap.

The dino ribs are already probe tender throughout after an hour on the smoker. The sous vide bath seems to render most, if not all, the fat after 24 hours, but at a much lower temperature. The benefit is less water loss and a good window to smoke them at 225 for a while.

I'm go to look and see if there have been any tables generated about fat rendering, similar to the pasteurization table.

Do you want the fat to render?

When you trim that fat cap save the fat in the freezer. You need to step up to the next level and get a good, dedicated grinder. Nothing like making your own ground beef for burgers. A blend of brisket, brisket fat cap, short ribs, and sirloin will blow your mind.

I've got some vacuum sealed in the freezer now.
