• Beef cheeks are a decent alternative for brisket - there's a video posted up thread somewhere (by @dubtap iirc).

  • Yes it was the Wilson's BBQ one.

    When the American BBQ guys he got the confit idea from came to the UK they semingly can't believe you can just get cheeks all nice and trimmed ready to cook over here because they can only really get vac packs of the gnarliest cow face parts and have to do all the work.

  • Could be that UK / European butchery is all about following the seams on the muscle / fascia, whereas US butchery just chops big squares out of everything.

    Cheeks are a winner though.
