howdy folks and greetings from the Great Plains of North Texas!
I was shocked to see this recipe mentioned in a Texas magazine today.
For Texas that kind of thing is almost sacrilegious! lol.
check this out:
18 hours smoked over oak. Is it beef? Nope. But the taste/texture are
pretty great. Mix of jackfruit, seitan, miso, beer, Franklin BBQ sauce
made w extra sugar so it carmalized to a crust — and it did!
The creator says it was a great success.
how's it look?

I'd try it. My friend @delishtreats has been teaching me the benefits of
a Vegan diet so see delishtreats... there ARE Texans who are Vegans!
This unusual fake meat was featured in an article about a big BBQ
roundup they're having in Dallas this week with 30 of the best BBQ
joints in Texas. That place is going to smell GOOD!
By the way, I worked as a grill master for a year in a local BBQ joint
which was a country restaurant about 5 or 6 miles outside of town.
We specialized in brisket but did beef and pork ribs, hot links,
chicken, turkey, several sausages.
That was quite the experience, it was fun when people from local
ranches would ride their horses over to the restaurant and tie up
at the front porch. We only used Mesquite wood and the briskets
were smoked for 12 hours. I can smell it now!
Here's the type of meals we were making:
thanks for stopping by folks, God bless you all!

ps- ya know...you might just be a redneck if:
Your idea of a 7 course meal is a bucket of KFC and a sixpack!
(actually sounds pretty good to me!)
No thank you! I'll take beef brisket any day over that strange fruit mess with barbecue sauce and sugar that you mentioned above. Really good beef brisket tastes good even without barbecue sauce!

My son got into smoking meat last year, it was one of those grin and bear it things. He's actually improved a lot over the course of the year, tomorrow he'll be back at it again in between helping me paint.

what are you painting, like your house?

Yes. I think I was telling you that I have my four year rental certification coming up. You can't have any peeling paint, if they find peeling paint they make you hire a professional to paint your house you can't do it yourself anymore....the only real difference is a professional takes a class, which I am sure they charge a nice sum for, then places caution tape around your house while they paint it...(lol). So basically I go around and spot check for peeling paint, scrape it, touch it up. I generally do the bottom half, my sons do the top. It takes them forever to get motivated, stay focused, etc., if I had a fiberglass ladder I'd probably do it myself, they are much lighter to handle then a steel ladder.

Mouthing watering food - and I don't mean the fake brisket.
Vegan Brisket. That sounds like a oxymoron to me.
People are creative enough to create a new dish, but they can't take it a step further and give it a new name.
I think vegans who go for 'fake' stuff, or vegan 'meat' stuff are hypocrites.
But what do I know right? :-)

Red meat. Read my lips, red meat. Brisket is red meat.
These people who make this kind of crap and then try to peddle it ought to be strung up at high noon from a big live oak tree.
Those "Texans" who are vegans are normally either transplanted Texans or who are native Texans that were in FFA and didn't realize that their first place lamb at the FFA show would end up being sold to the local meat market at the champions auction and on display the next week in the meat case with a picture of the blue ribbon award ceremony taped on the front glass of the cabinet by the lamb roast.
My wife happens to be the latter of those two examples by the way.

She is a native Texan, I went back and edited my comment to better reflect what I was trying to get across.
Her lamb won first place when she was a junior in high school at the FFA live stock show.
The local grocery store that was in Tomball, Texas at the time was the Klein Brothers Grocery and Meat Market.
They purchased her lamb at the champions sale and the next week when she was in the store with her mother grocery shopping she found her lamb butchered and on display in the glass meat case of the meat department.
Her meal prior to that shopping trip was the last time she ever ate meat. She has been a vegan or vegetarian since then, I know there is a difference between the two V's but I couldn't swear which she technically falls under, but she damn sure doesn't eat meat.

ha! yes it really offends people that someone would try to make fake brisket but it IS much healthier if you have a health condition that limits your diet.
Yes the fake meat is basically flavored gluten so it's fine unless you're on a diet to limit gluten which is what Mrs. J and I are on at the moment, so it would be better for us to have the real thing.

It seems like I'm always coming across some article or post where a vegan or vegetarian is attempting to approximate some kind of meat, mostly beef, and my question is, why? If you don't want to eat meat, why make stuff like meat? It makes absolutely no sense. Do they miss the taste and texture or something but principle gets in the way, so fake meat it is?
It's like me trying to fake I'm from Texas. :) Actually, I might get away with that better than the vegans/vegetarians get away with their disdain for meat when they're attempting to do everything in their power to recreate the taste. Go ahead and eat healthy. Eat the vegetables, but if you've got a hankerin' for brisket, don't try to reinvent it.

ha! howdy sir Glen it's so good to see you here..yes I don't understand it all, I'm sure my friend delishtreats doesn't go looking for veggies that taste like meat but apparently some vegans or vegetarians do.
But Rainbow Man there says they found a great replacement for burgers and I've heard that there are types of replacements that taste like it so you don't have to give up that taste so I like that idea but a brisket?
that's a little different to me at least. Brisket is an excellent meat, very healthy unless you have some kind of medical condition that calls for no red meat. We sold a special taco and quesadilla with finely chopped, lean, no fat brisket and those things were to live for, I mean they were the best tasting Mexican food items I've ever had. sold a ton of em too.

I think delishtreats is awesome and I wouldn't try to knock what they're doing at all.
For others, though, if there's something in your brain that's saying, hey, we should eat meat, than maybe the brain should be listened to.
Ground beef is one of those things that probably could and should be replaced, but still, this has its limits.
That brisket taco sounds pretty good. All of the leaner meats (keto notwithstanding) would be healthy eaten in moderation. You don't have to have meat every meal, or even every day, but it exists for man's use. Nothing is here by accident, including us. We may have not been here first, however which way you come at it, so, anyway. I'm really not getting riled up about this. I'm just saying, if you want to go all vegetarian/vegan, great. Do it. But if the brain keeps saying, I want meat, we need meat, there's probably a natural reason for it.

Hahaha, you know that I would enjoy the first thing better @janton! BUT I don't miss the taste of meat so I'm not looking for substitutes. I try to eat plant based as much as possible and avoid gluten too.
This brings me to @glenalbrethsen - Hey Glen :) I think that this kind of substitutes are mainly used by people transitioning to vegan diet. They want to eat 'cruelty free - no meat' BUT they like the taste so they look for replacements.
I think everybody has a choice and I'm not a preaching vegan :) I had my reasons why I went vegan and I'm open to discuss them when somebody asks me BUT I would by no means try to convince anybody about my truth.
And Mr. @janton mentioned me in his post JUST because he wants me to read his blogs, lol!

Hey, @delishtreats.
I'm sure there's plenty of transitioning vegans in the mix, and I guess that makes sense to a degree (guess I'm being more of a purist when it comes to this even though it really doesn't matter that much too me—why? who knows. :) I've also read about it with folks who were a few years into it, also, unless it takes a long time to transition.

To be honest I also don't understand the transitioning vegans very much but well, this is what it is :) You are right too as also some vegans simply like the taste of meat or junk food so they look for substitutes..I think this is also ok as everybody has a choice to do whatever they want to. And as long as it doesn't limit myself, I'm fine with whatever people do :)

well, live and let live (as long no one is being hurt in the process) is better than everyone trying to rule over one another. What anyone eats is pretty low on my list of priorities unless I end up paying for it somehow. Then, I'm not to happy about it.
I get liking the taste of meat. I don't get finding substitutes, but other than stating it, what am I going to do about it? Zilch, zero, nada. I'm just going to keep on eating what I like and others will eat what they like and hopefully everyone can keep happy and healthy. :)

It's hilarious because you wouldn't even try it. :) You might look for better tasting varieties of kale, or some other so called super food that tastes better than kale, but you wouldn't go looking for a meat that not only tastes like kale, but has all the nutrients of kale without the meat side effects.
I could be wrong, but unless there's some maggot or beetle that eats kale and thus tastes like it, and is able to transmit all its nutrients through its meat, such a thing does not exist and you wouldn't waste your time trying to find it.

Be careful with vegan. My BFF is a vegan, so I have tasted most of it. Some is good, and some is a copy made by someone that has never eaten meat. As a Vegan, it is Very hard to get enough B vitamins, and a common side effect is depression.
So IF you decide to be a Vegan, be sure to get some good quality B vitamins and take them every day! I got some for him, and it really helped him a lot!
There is a healthier in between, look into vegetarian. It has the benefits of improved health, with very low danger. I am a preferential vegetarian, I eat a lot of veggies, because I LIKE them! I still eat Meat, when it catches my fancy, but most of my food is vegetables.
I ate steamed vegetables for dinner tonight, because I like them. Unlike a vegan, I put Butter on them, ROFLOL!

The SAD (Standard American Diet) is loaded with Carbohydrates, and limiting them is smart. The truly healthiest diet is Vegetarian, with a lot of History behind it to back that claim.
The Keto diet is similar to the Atkins diet, and is well proven to be a fast weight loss diet. A young Lady I used to work with put herself in the Hospital with the Atkins diet, she went into ketoacidosis.

I do NOT know that the diet you are on will do this, but please be careful! I would love to steal the pink chair (Throne?) from you, ROFLOL; But I would NOT want to win it this way! SO Stay healthy! Okay?
But there is a century of empirical data to support the weight loss, and health advantages of being a vegetarian. If I had the discipline, I would do it myself; But I will just have to keep nibbling around the edges I guess.

haha! yes! that's been the main reaction to this post, most are appalled and offended that anyone would even try it! lol. but at least I bet that fake brisket would go with beer. But then what wouldn't? lol.

hey, have you gone completely vegan or it was an experiment? I know a lot of meat eaters who turned vegan but couldn't go on much longer.
I could picture that scene (thanks to Hollywood movies) people coming on their horses, parking it and having a beer ... would love to experience that myself someday..

A vegan BBQ brisket in Texas! I am vegetarian (mostly) but if you are going to feed me brisket, it had better be the real thing! LOL You know the food is good if the good old boys ride up on their horses to get it!

One of my favorite things on this planet is smoked sausage! I recently had the opportunity at a Steemit meetup to try a jack fruit bbq made by the talented @hobotang and I was blown away by the flavors, aromas, and textures. I've been trying to find jack fruit locally but have struck out so far. I plan on doing an article about making jack fruit bbq as soon as I can find some.

lol For me it's not about finding a meat replacement. I'm ALWAYS going to eat meat, but I would like to have some tasty alternatives to my horrible diet. I don't like too many types of vegetables, so when I find one that was kinda cool, it makes me want to give it a shot.
How cool was it being a pit master for a year? I bet you learned some really good tips and tricks of the trade!

You can try to make pulled jack fruit burger - minimalist baker has an amazing recipe. It's so good! I've been making it for my carni friends and they love it! They even asked for the recipe :)
You can use canned jack fruit. I'm sure it's available where you live. If I found it in Switzerland, it must be everywhere, lol!

Hi @janton. That is a no from me for that veggie brisket. Looks as dry as old boots and if you going to be a veggie why imitate. The other food looks amazing by the way. I had ribs tonight and they were very good.

But a perfectly smoked brisket with Mesquite wood...the best. and we made tacos that sold like hot cakes, they were killer good.

As much as I LOVE real meat, I'd certainly try it. Due to budget alone, we've spent a good portion of our marriage eating a lot of vegetarian options. Beans are SO much cheaper than meat! Of course some of these 'replacements' are expensive, so I don't know that I'd go to the bother of trying to MAKE this, but I'd certainly eat it without complaint if someone wanted to make it for me! :)

hahaha! yes me too! but to smoke something for 18 hours would take alot of wood but if someone went to that much trouble I'd sure as heck try it out, I agree!
