How to Prepare SRF X Southside Barbeque Pit-Smoked Products
All Southside products are shipped frozen. Thaw them completely in the refrigerator before preparing. Small cuts like the pork steak will thaw overnight. For large cuts like the smoked brisket, the time to thaw can take several days.
SRF x Southside pit smoked BBQ items are fully cooked, so they simply need to be reheated. The ideal internal temperature for all Southside items is 165°F.
Cooking above this temperature may cause your BBQ items to dry out and become less juicy. Please note cooking times may vary depending on the unique characteristics of your equipment.
