Corned beef brisket != beef brisket

[cjsmith]

It's kind of hard to clean a crock pot when you have no hot water. (Well, no hot water feeding the dishwasher or the kitchen sink. The upstairs bathroom has some. I have never been more glad that we have two completely separate water systems here.)

But I got it done.

I sniffed at the brisket, and y'know, I think I'm not a huge fan of corned beef either. Or else my brain isn't too sure how it would work with bbq sauce. (Darn that Safeway employee who pointed out this hunk o' meat. I was all set to go home without any.) I'll try it and see how it goes. Later.

I might have time to make rosemary chicken this afternoon.

The grocers don't seem to stock brisket much. The last time I wanted some, I had to ask the butcher (it wasn't out in the self-service case), and then he only had half of what I needed. It may help to call the store ahead and ask them to have it ready to pick up a day or so later.

That sounds like a good idea. If I didn't find it in the "plain old beef" section last time I looked, I'm probably not going to find it next time, either. A phone call could do it.
