I was at the meat counter this weekend and picked up a package labeled as "Pork Brisket". It was packaged in 3 pieces which looked similar in shape to baby backs, but with no ribs - long and slightly triangular with bone/cartilidge along the front and top edge and a flap of meat on both sides. I wasn't quite sure what to do with it, but prepped it like ribs(mustard and rub) and put it on at 220. It was fully cooked at about the same time as ribs (4 1/2 hours), turning once in the process. Left it wrapped for an hour, the sliced/chopped it, since it was hard to figure how to cut it up the first time. Turned out to be very tasty - definitely not pulled pork and firmer than rib meat. Anybody else run across this cut? I don't think it is the same cut as a beef brisket. Sorry I didn't get pictures, I demolished it all in the trimming. I would try it again, even though its a mystery cut to me.

Red, could this be the trimmings form spareribs that were prepared in a St. Louis style. sometimes these are called riblets? |
