Join Me for a Bowl of Menudo Anyone?

Far as I'm concerned brisket is third, then. Can't understand why anybody would cook something for 12 hours to make it fit to eat. And I've smoked a few. Again, way better stuff to smoke. Just don't get it.
This is true . Brisket is tough but also comes from the front quarter which is a heavy muscle and should not be put in same category as gut product.
