Grilled chicken thighs (bone-in w/skin, of course) last night for dinner. Finally, a warm evening in D.C. area.

Brush pile that needs to be burned
Dinner that needs to be cooked
If you know me, this doesn't come as a surprise...
You know where this is going!
Yeah, even at nearly 700 degrees (Fahrenheit) I can still cook a perfect bird...

How was the rest of the menu? It's on my backup list of places to eat in Vegas this November, but I could be swayed...

I think its a good expectation when dining here that the meal is best served family style - order numerous dishes for the table and share. Without the Peking duck pre-ordered however, can't say I would recommend dining. That's not to say the other food wasn't excellent, quite the opposite. Having that Peking duck however is the centerpiece and defines the word succulent. We also had dishes like crab fried rice, duck carved and retossed in the pan spicy style, dumplings, veggies, etc. Everything was great and would recommend as long as you pre-order the duck.
They also made a fantastic drink there i would highly recommend with our without dining; can't remember the name but it starts with an "m". Some form of cocktail that has ginger beer in it

Treated the family to a nice dinner with some of last nights cash game’s winnings. Had a great baked sausage, peppers and onions over penne…with a side of wild turkey!
Meals after a poker win are extra tasty.
Had a nice bowl of spicy tonkotsu ramen

I think I finally figured it out last weekend. Watched a few videos that discuss some techniques the top BBQ joints in TX “aren’t telling you” Started with a prime brisket my Costco just started carrying this year. Cooked at 250 for 3 hours then 275 the rest of the cook and didn’t wrap in butcher paper until the bark looked great and the fat was rendered. Used my Primo xl and made sure the I was burning a super clean fire before I put the food on.
But the absolute game changer was to rest it in a warm oven for 9 hours. Evidently all the top places rest at 145 for up to 12hrs before they serve!!
After the brisket was tender I took out of the pit and let it rest in a cold oven until the temp came down to 110. Then I set the oven to the lowest temp (170) for about 8 hours before we ate and served at 145. FINALLY after many tries over many years I made a brisket equal to the best I’ve had in TX!

This needs more pics!
I didn't want to be that guy. Plus it was dim and I used a flash just to get the menu pic. Everything was outstanding!!
This will be dinner tonight
Already hit 165 so I wrapped and will wait until it hits 200. Probably in a few hours .
Dinner is ready after a 9 hour cook and 45 min rest. Sorry for the less than stellar presentation, I was just ready to eat
