BBQ comes from North Carolina and Brisket comes from Texas

[Tokay444]

Question for Tokay444. Why do you ask a question like that on a BBQ thread?

Because people mentioned Lexington NC.

 

[Im2bent]

Because people mentioned Lexington NC.

And you confused it with Lexington S.C,Va.,Ma,Ky? Or?

Yes. Why?

 

[Im2bent]

Yes. Why?

Because you asked?

 

[Tokay444]

Because you asked?

No, why do all those states have the same city in them? It’s not exclusive to Lexington either.

C'mon man!!!! Do you have any idea how hard it is to come up with an original name? Actually I suspect whoever named a city named it after a city in the "motherland" http://becominglexington.com/lex_geog_hist/why_lex_a/index.html

With Brisket being $50 - $70 each I'm not sure a lot of it is being made at this point.

Trust me, "Lexington" is chump change when compared to my former home state (PRNJ). Do you know how many different "Washington" municipalities are contained within the state, itself? My home county (Warren) even had a "Washington Boro" contained inside a "Washington Township." Not to mention all the other counties that have a "Washington Twp."

Trust me, George W slept here, and there, and there and over there, and way over there, etc. etc. etc.

I think Aaron Franklin of Franklin BBQ might want to differ. Brisket is their primary thing...

A business selling brisket can't exactly stop selling their product short of going out of business. But Joe Schmo may stop buying it to cook at home.

I make a couple a month.

I tried the water bath method but it didn’t have the same mouth feel as cooking on my Weber.

Also, we don’t have BBQ in Oregon. Not really.

Here is your homework assignment.

Find what other states have a town called Frognot, other than Texas.

It would be interesting to see the "Elasticity Curve" on brisket... I'm not sure it's as "elastic" as one might think.

Even uglier, how many Rock Creeks are in your state? I can think of at least 4 within 50 miles of my location.

We have a Frog Pond about 15 mi East of here, does that count? I’m in Charlotte, by the way.

And yours is, how many states have a Fayetteville. Why can't you just keep all your fayettes in one place?

Would that include "Lafayette?" We have a few of those in FL.

Must be French for the fayettes.

I would rather we get back to brisket and barbecue instead of worrying about cities. How about that? How about a separate thread for that instead of cluttering up this fine thread?

 

[Dogtown]

I concur on TX brisket...

Depends on the grade/quality.

If you have the right id, you can buy wicked good “show” brisket at the Ft. Myer commissary…

Might even run into Sec. Jim “Chaos” Mattis stocking up on Pop Tarts!

So for bbq do any of you guys source your own wood chips or chunks? Like cherry or apple are common locally in this part of Idaho.
Or just buy it already made?

 

[Im2bent]

For charcoal I buy the 40 pound bags at Smart and Final here in Socal
