My local grocery had beef briskets on sale right before the 4th of July
weekend for $.87 a pound and I bought one that weighed a little over 12
pounds.
Sense there is just my dh and me, I had the butcher to cut it in thirds.
After we got home, I put each third in zippered freezer bags and froze
them. Then this past Friday, after thawing one of the thirds in the
fridge, I fixed it in the slow cooker. After it cooked and it cooled,
dh cut most of the fat off. Dh, my brother and I ate on it for lunch
and dinner until last night. Then this morning, I ground it up with my
food grinder and put the meat in zippered freezer bags and froze it for
later use. I will get it out sometime next month, and after it thaws
out, I will put it in a skillet and put some bar-b-que sauce on it and
heat it up for bar-b-que sandwiches.
I will be able to have several meals from the briskets that`s left.
