Barbacoa Sausage - Smokin' Joe's Pit BBQ

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Thank you for watching my Barbacoa Sausage video! If you enjoyed this video, check out my most popular Sausage video, Texas Hot Links. kzbin.info/www/bejne/gqPEdHmenbStaKM

Dude, I love some old school barbacoa dug from a pit, pulled straight from the cheek, and slapped on a fresh tortilla. Combining this into a sausage? Pure genius!

[@toms.3977]

I worked at a slaughterhouse/locker plant back in the 70's. One of my favorite beef cuts was cheek meat. Pressure cooked until fork tender, it was amazing in the flavor department. I got them for hamburger price, which was less than a buck a pound back then. I miss the cheeks since I can't get them any more. I won't be ordering from the expensive meat shops online. On disability and can't afford it. Thanks for the video. It brought back a few memories. I enjoyed it.

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Wow Tom, that's a heck of a price. I bet they didn't take long to cook in a pressure cooker. Thanks so much for watching and sharing your story. 👍

[@toms.3977]

@Average User Thank you! I'll look around.

[@MrKoopas]

I don't know where you're from but here in California you can get them from pretty much any Carniceria.

I never had cheeks, but I will say shanks (oso bucco) have a great deep flavor and usually $3/4 a lbs.

[@grahamfordham6728]

Excellent looking sausages! I made beef cheek burgers the other weekend. Smoked for 4 hours and sous vide overnight, we couldn’t tell where the bun ended and the beef started!

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Man I bet that was delicious!👍

[@dwaynewladyka577]

Beef cheek (barbacoa) sausages is once again thinking outside of the box. Those sausages look incredible. Cheers, Joe! 👍👍✌️

Yes sir Dwayne, thanks so much for watching my friend. 👍

Joe, every time I watch you're videos you make me hungry! Love you brother!

[@theguyshow3392]

Holy smokes Joe! You hit it out of the park with these special Barbacoa Sausages! Back in my line cook days we would braise beef cheeks in Chile Colorado and they were delicious. Thank you for sharing your salsa recipe! Well done my friend!

[@bobbicatton]

Such a fabulous, unique sausage! I would not have blamed you for making a taco with some of the mix. Awesome👍😊

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Thank you Richard 👍

[@JakeLovesSteak]

Beef cheeks are amazing. That sausage looks fantastic! I was really curious to see how you were going to do this one. It's very unique, but a great addition to your sausage repertoire.

[@duncanjames914]

Wow! Thanks, Joe. This is a great video tutorial on something I definitely want to make! 🙂

Joe, you are a God among insects. This looks amazing, and I will definitely make it this weekend.

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Thanks Jorge!👍

[@24kachina]

HOLY SMOKINS those look delicious! I don't know how you had the willpower not to stop after adding the Negra Modelo and eat about a pound of that rico goodness hand to mouth! Smokin' Joe and Chud/Bradley are the online Sausage Yodas.

Great work, Joe. This is something really unique! Must say you have a marvelous spanish pronunciation as well. Cheers from Spain, un cordial saludo!

First thought was that a beer would be great in this sausage, then you added it! Great idea, Joe. Bet these were delicious.

[@Buford_T_Justice1]

Smokin’ Joe clappin’ cheeks! Those sausages looked incredible! I’d be wrapping those in a corn tortilla and going to town compadre! You rule Joe!!!!

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Thanks so much for watching Priscilla 👍

[@brittsbackyardbbqngrill]

THAT is not to Dark. Looks just like Barbacoa after it get's some smoke on it. I got to do 2 real hole in the ground Barbacoa cooks and I was addicted. You have really stepped up the sausage game. I could put a few of those away. I liked the salsa also. Nice video my Friend.

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Hey Britt, thanks so much for watching my friend. That salsa is pretty savage too. 👌

[@SJCOOKS]

Damn Joe! this worked out perfectly. Never seen anything like this before for sure. great success!

[@CAJUNRNEWBBQ]

Looks delicious. Never had beef cheeks. Going to need to get on that. Nice sausage.

Thank you👍

[@ScottysBackYardBBQ]

sausage look great. what if you ran through a grinder using a 1/4 die?

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

I knew the meat would continue to break down after the 2nd smoke so I purposely left it a little chunky. As you can see, they texture was spot on. 👌

[@hoppie8693]

I have been watching many of your sausage videos and I always thought "why is there no sound of machinery when he fills them? How does he activate the machine, by foot pedal?". And only now I saw the arm of the person using the crank, I'm such a dumbo. Great content!

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

🤣 I do use a foot pedal to grind and my daughter cranks the stuffer for me. 👍

[@yolandavaldez5256]

I really love this video looks delicious thank you for the recipe may God Bless 🙏

[@taccosnachos]

Very interesting, what if you added rice, similar boudin?

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

I almost added some Mexican rice to this. 👍

[@1loadermanjack]

Awesome sausages and an awesome video good job Joe thumbs up all the way😎👍

[@stevegrieb6596]

That looks great! Not to mention so much easier than the traditional Central and South Texas method of a whole head cooked in a literal pit. So, when can we expect smoked cabrito?

[@TheGRUMPSY]

Looking fantastic! Did it have enough fat to keep it moist?

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Oh yeah, the fat was perfect. Beef cheeks are very unique and the fat isn't like fat you'd find on brisket. This fat renders and gets gelatinous. 👍

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Thank you Marie. 👍

[@psalm6272]

Just for my own understanding why did you smoke the beef cheeks first and then put them through the grinder instead of grinding them raw and then casing them and smoking the sausages? Thanks and keep up the great videos!

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Great question, mainly for that smoky flavor. I thought about grinding the beef cheeks and then stuffing but I wasn't sure what the outcome would be. Maybe a future video. 👍

When you're cutting up the beef cheeks, how the hell did you have ANY left over to make sausage. I would've grabbed a tortilla and i dont think i wouldve gotten past that step. that looks sooooo freakin good!

Not a boudin but a bouJuan 🤣 great looking sausage brother! Temp pop quiz

[@gsmoneygsmoney1479]

Straight money. Wow Wow Wow

[@kbc163]

This sausage looks amazing, but to be a version of boudin it would need rice. And yeah, I'm from Louisiana so I know. Boudin is one of the four food groups here, along with gumbo, jambalaya, and bread pudding. 😂

[@rubenrenteria9064]

Yes sir the first amazing job

[@Ahglock]

This makes me wonder. I've had a plan to corn some brisket as if I were making pastrami, but then grinding/emulsify it and mixing it with both hot dog spices and pastrami rub, then cold smoking it as pastrami hot dogs. Now I wonder if I should finish the pastrami, then grind it and mix with hot dog spices before smoking it off as pastrami hot dogs, not sure if cooked brisket will emulsify for that hot dog texture, heck not sure if cured brisket will. So far I've been too chicken as thats a lot of brisket to waste if it doesn't work, and brisket isn't as cheap as it once was.

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

I bet you could get away with it. I don't think it will emulsify but just thinking about the texture it will be OK. I'd tear into a pastrami sausage. 🤘
