El Eterno Brisket (asado 20 Horas) | La Capital - Summary

Summary

About a year ago, the person's friend, Professor Klocker from the Southern Recipes channel, recorded a video of cooking a large piece of meat for 15 hours. The experiment involved preparing this meat differently from traditional American brisket. They decided not to trim excess fat, used salt and pepper for seasoning, and opted for roasting over smoking. The meat was left to marinate in the fridge overnight.

The cooking process started at 6:30 AM, with regular basting using an atomizer filled with water, rosemary, and morita chiles. The temperature was maintained around 160-172°F. For breakfast, the person prepared egg tacos with Mexican chorizo. Lunch consisted of shrimp, Polish sausage, chorizo, onion, garlic, butter, and lemon juice over rice.

After 14 hours of cooking, the meat was still not ready, so they decided to wrap it in aluminum foil to speed up the cooking process. After 19 hours of cooking, they removed the meat, letting it rest for an hour before serving.

This detailed summary covers the key points of the video's content, focusing on the preparation and cooking of the meat over an extended period.
