Thanks for the heads up
Might pick one up for the smoker for this coming long weekend.
Have some time and will be staying home anyway due to the travel restrictions.

Was that online or a local flyer?
Update: Found it in the flyer. Ordered 3 for pickup tomorrow. What a country.

Yes sir I can!Was that online or a local flyer?
Can you fit 3 in your smoker?
Mind you, not in the charcoal which I prefer. Only in the natural gas big box.

They also have Tri tip on for 8.99. This cut is awesome. I have never seen it here but very popular in the states. I spent some time in Santa Maria, CA where the tri tip sandwich was invented and just about every grocery store parking lot has some cooking over white oak.

Yeah definitely a California cut. Little too lean for me. I couldn't seem to order anything else online from the flyer.

The ones I saw at Woodgrove were too ugly to buy. Maybe a better selection in a few days.

Found several choices this morning.
Some were smaller and thinner at about $32.
The thicker ones were up to $57. I picked out one that was in the middle at $44.
Almost drooling already thinking about slicing into a tender juicy brisket.

Yeah, the Bradley struggles with big chunks of meat.
My Bradley is now mostly used for cold smoking cheese, olives or smoking nuts.
Hope you post pics of the progesss of your cook/ new smoker

Smoke it like you would a brisket and it stays moist and full of flavor. Cooked to hot and/or long and it can dry out real quick. Funny thing is with our Canadian beef grading system I always end up searching through all the packages from multiple stores when they have sales on cause you will see a difference in marbling even when they are supposed to all be a certain grade like AA or AAA. This is really noticeable especially when rib roasts go on sale. Huge difference in marbling and the fats around the lean parts. And some will be cut from the chuck end and some from the loin end so I watch for that too when it comes to the rib roasts. Tri Tips we don't see too often but I love the beef flavor from them so I always stock up on them. When I see them on sale I grab them for my homemade burger grinds cause the beef flavor in the tri tip is great. Just need to make sure there is still enough fat in the grind mix to make good burgers. I do 75/25 mix usually. If using more leaner beef cuts then I'll add a few slices of my homemade bacon to the burger mix to moisten it up.
One of our all time favorite burger grinds I did was tri tip, sirloin, chuck, rib roast trimmings when I cut the roasts into steaks, and a few strips of homemade apple bacon. Will be doing another one of these grinds this weekend.
