WTF is a Beef Clod, as opposed to a Brisket?

    As far as I know it's a shoulder cut. It cooks very much like a brisket, and doesn't quite have as intense a beefy flavor as a brisket. Makes great pulled beef.
    Cheers

    Brisket is the chest muscle, clod is the upper shoulder.

    Ronnie...

    Check with Lawn Ranger directly if you get a chance. I know he's able to get them,(lots of folks aren't as it's a regional cut for the most part)...and has cooked them more than a time or two on the Egg.

    Tyey are mighty fine eatin'!!

    It's what I call "Miracle Pork". A few years back, I went to my local Kroger and asked a very young guy in the meat department if he had any pork butts. He went back and brought out a kryovac pack with meat in it. I asked how much it was and he said $2.79/lb. I informed him that that price was ridiculous and it should be no more than $1.99 but $1.69 or even $1.39 was a more accurate price. He went back and announced that it was actually $1.39/lb so I bought 24 (three 8-pounders) pounds. I took it home, noticed that it look a bit like old pork (a bit dark), rubbed it with yellow mustard and threw it into the refrig. The next day I pulle dthem out, put them on the BGE and slow cooked them all night. The next day I pulled them off, wrapped in foil and let them rest to pull. It was only when I started pulling that I fully realized these were beef not pork. The pulled beef was good and everyone at the church function really enjoyed it. SInce I had advertised I was going to be serving "pulled pork" I just explained that this was "Miracle Pork". BTW, the $2.79 was about the right price for the beef clods.
