i made the cranberry/portabella brisket tonight-


Its a winner :drool:

Chefs are professionals...I'm just a home cook ;)

Anyway, that recipe is pretty brainless...anyone who follows the directions should be able to cook it.

Tonight I showed up at our friends house. They were planning on roasting a whole tenderloin, straight out of the BJ's bag, not knowing the temp, a thermometer etc... :hs: :doh: :( :sick:

But even though I cooked it perfectly I did break the bernaise when I ran to the other room to make a drink :lasso:

I've only done it traditional slow cook barbeque with a JD based sauce or with a dry rub.

What's the recipe?

Brisket in all its forms is :drool:

Sounds delicious Nebe:drool:

Are a beyyyatch. They need to be between 120-165, if even a little on either side, bam!
Some warm drawn butter can fix it, though...temper the broken sauce (1/3 of it) to the butter, then back into the broken sauce.

Given the extreme health aspects of the hollandaise based sauces I probably make them once every 2-3 years!

Besides, on our friends freaking electric smoothtop stove I always manage to screw something up if I'm dinking. I hate that thing, in fact I hate all smoothtop stoves.

Thought using a double boiler with a heavy copper pan on top would help...but oh well, live and learn :cputin:

Emulsion sauces seem to smeel fear...

I can so see you walking in and getting a mortified look on your face when you saw their handling of some fine BJ's meat.. :eek:

Then putting your hands on your hips, sticking out your chest and saying... have no fear... "HOME COOK JEFF IS HERE" :bl: :bl: :bl:

I have more respect for the food than to shove an 80 dollar piece of meat into the oven completely untrimmed, silverskin and all!

And it's a setup anyway. They pretty much expect me to take over once I arrive...

E.. Leaving thursday afternoon.... Thanks though...
Had some yummy Canadian style Pork Pie last night and some La Forge wedding buffet on Sat.. I've been eating well lately!

Spence... thats a shame.. I thought maybe you put on a cape and a pulled a folding whisk from your pocket... besides you KNOW I KNOW you can cook.. your stew on BI was quite tasty...
