I got a couple flats today for 2.80/lb. They also had fresh cabbage for .79/lb. Funny but flats or points were the same price.
Ill soak the flats on Friday to get some of the salt out, then Saturday smoke them at 250 for 4/5 hours. Then one flat will go into the pressure cooker on Sunday with cabbage, potatoes, carrots, and some picking type spices plus a pinch of caraway. Should be a good comfort Sunday meal when I get back from my Sunday dog hike in the mountains. I'll save the second one for Reuben sammys.
After smoking for 5.5 hours at 200F, I cut the fat cap off. For what ever reason, this flat was insane moist and was very tender. I got out the ipot pressure cooker. I added cut cabbage, potatoes and carrots. For "steam" I added a cup of apple juice and a cup of water. Steamed on "meat" setting for 20 minutes. It was a 10/10. Super flavor, and very easy to make. The apple juice really helped with sweetness.
