Ideas for BBQ - (one for Papoo)

[uncinqsix]

Right. We're having a housewarming BBQ in a few weeks and will need to feed around 25-30 people using an 18" Weber. The plan is to do a large slab of some form of slow-cooked meat, possibly followed by something else cooked quickly straight after that's been taken out.

Anyone have any ideas for what sort of meats would work well for this? For the slow cooked meat, I'm considering perhaps doing a mutton leg, but I have no idea what sort of treatment this would need. Not sure about the fast-cooked one either. Maybe a large piece of beef sirloin?

Would welcome any suggestions.

That's what I was thinking about ribs - just too many people to feed and not enough bbq space. They are surprisingly expensive here too. I hadn't thought of brisket as I've never done it before. Might have to look into that.

Bumpity bump

Anyone have any advice on cooking brisket?

A seriously impressive post

Cripes. That's quite something! Not sure I'll be qoing to quite that extreme this time (I will have a few time constraints etc) but there are a lot of good ideas there. Might try the full-fat procedure in front of a smaller audience at a later date... Thanks heaps.
