Beef Brisket | MEATER Master Class

MEATER-BLOG-Smoked-Brisket
They say that anything worth having is worth waiting for. The process of smoking a brisket is pretty simple, but if you really want that melt-in-your-mouth beef (and trust us, you do), the key is to take your time and not rush it. Slow-smoked brisket is rich and full of flavor all by itself, so we like staying true to the classic Texas style of simple salt and pepper seasoning. If you've never smoked a brisket before, brace yourself, because that bad boy is going to be cooking for a long while. If you're an early riser, you can get up with the sun, smoke all day, and have a brisket dinner. As an alternative, we like to smoke it overnight, then give it a long rest so it's ready just in time for lunch. If you've never done an overnight smoke, we understand that it might sound a bit scary. But don't you worry, because MEATER will keep you updated at key moments in your cook so you don't have to stand out by the smoker in your bathrobe all night long! Brisket is filling enough that you might not even need to make a side dish. If you're feeling ambitious, balance out your beef with a lighter dish like salad, or some kind of carb like Texas toast or garlic bread (or garlic Texas toast!). Nothing beats a cold beer at a barbecue, and we recommend an IPA to cut through the fat of the brisket, or a stout to enhance the rich and smoky flavor of the meat.

Beef and Pork Meatloaf | MEATER Master Class

MEATER-BLOG-MEATLOAF
We may never be able to solve the age-old mystery of why someone decided to put ground meat in a brick shape in the first place, but what we do know is that to a lot of people, the word "meatloaf" immediately brings to mind cozy meals with the family. To really capture the magic of a meatloaf, it's best made at home with lots of love, and luckily that's an easy thing to do. This quaint and quirky dish has also endured for centuries in various forms all around the world, and it's been most popular during times of hardship as a way to stretch protein and make the most of leftovers, so it's super versatile and can be made with a lot of different meats and flavorings. The only undisputed rule of meatloaf is that it needs to be soft and succulent, because you don't want to be relying on ketchup or BBQ sauce just to make it edible (we've all been there), so it's a good thing you've got MEATER on your side. A classic, homey dish like this one deserves comforting sides to match, so we suggest serving it alongside some cooked vegetables like green beans or asparagus. You're also pretty much required by law to have creamy mashed potatoes with meatloaf. You're best off going bold with the beverage pairings, so a deep and fruity red wine like merlot will work perfectly.
