    It is the Sirloin tip. It comes from the round section directly to the rear of the sirloin section. In its whole, untrimmed form, it is called beef knuckle. Another popular cut of meat comes from the knuckle: the London broil. If you want to buy a whole knuckle and trim it yourself, you will get two for one, plus some extra meat for stew or grinding.

    Well, ya learn something new every day. I was using it as a slang term for a 13# HOM (Hunk o Meat). This is actually a beef brisket. You’ll notice the “flat” This is the part that is usually sliced for sammies and or cured for corned beef. The knob on top is an exceptionally large “point”. This meat is more marbled and is often removed and used for chopped brisket sammies. I wasn’t aware that the “knuckle” was actually a term. In about 4 more hours, it will move into the slang of “Meaty Meteorite of MMMMMaadddnnneessss.”

    Might not even be 4 hours. I just did a temp check and all sections of the meat have moved through the “stall” phase. This is the phase where the collagen liquifies. This usually occurs around 150-160 degrees. A pork shoulder can sit in the stall phase for a couple of hours. This is usually when people get impatient and crank up the heat. Not a good move. Patience and beer is a key here. Once things hit 170, temps climb quickly. I’m at 166 on the flat and 175 on the point. I have 4 hours of smoke into it from this morning (hickory). That should give a nice 3/8 inch smoke ring. I’m aiming for a temp of 180. Then, I’ll wrap it with some of Wisconsin’s finest brew and let it sit for another 2 hours. The finished product? Well, you’ll have to wait to see. Or, those that know where I live…I’ll see you tonight.

    You shouldn’t has show us before you had finished it. I think there are a few of us circling your place right now. It may be there when you are ready to take it off. Looks mouth watering good.

    I made the mistake and checked what a Moose Knuckle is… For some reason, I thought it was a larger version of a camel toe. Its NOT.
