Five Star Proudly Serves CERTIFIED ANGUS BEEF!

CAB_LOGO_gs copy

We get lots of questions about what makes our brisket so tender and delicious.

Here’s our best answer.

A lot of credit goes to JT’s rub and his magic BBQ touch. We couldn’t do it without our workhorse Southern Pride Smoker, filled with apple wood for flavorful smoke and carefully tended by our awesome kitchen staff.

It all begins with the CERTIFIED ANGUS BEEF Choice Cut Briskets that we serve.

What does CERTIFIED ANGUS BEEF mean?

Certified Angus Beef ® brand Natural is the finest natural beef available.

Angus cattle are carefully selected from reputable ranches and family farms in America’s heartland. These producers are dedicated to bringing the very best, natural beef to your family’s table. These ranchers commit to a never, ever policy, raising cattle without antibiotics or added hormones. And cattle are fed a strictly vegetarian diet.

Not only does Certified Angus Beef ® brand Natural meet the brand's standards for all-natural beef, it also meets the brand’s marbling standards and 10 specifications for flavor and quality. These standards – paired with a never, ever commitment – ensure consumers always enjoy premium beef with the wholesome goodness of the brand’s Natural products.

From the farm to the grocery aisle, Certified Angus Beef ® brand Natural achieves the highest quality standards, ensuring every bite is abundantly flavorful, incredibly juicy and naturally tender.

As a nonprofit organization, our company’s mission is simple:
Provide superior beef quality through our network of world-class farmers and ranchers.
We’re the first Angus brand and the only brand owned by the American Angus Association ® – the organization representing nearly 30,000 of America’s Angus ranchers and their families.

How low is “low”? How slow is “slow”?

1107low6

At least a few times a week we get asked for details about how we smoke our meats. It’s a great question and one that we can’t answer quickly.

It’s really an art, involving decisions about the weight of each individual cut of meat and how much wood to add to our workhorse Southern Pride Smoker.

We CAN tell you the following averages!

Briskets are smoked for 11-13 hours at around 225 degrees.

Pork Butts are smoked for 12-14 hours at the same temp.

Chicken Quarters take about 2 hours at 290 and Thighs are around an hour at 250.

The entire process for Ribs takes close to 6 hours.

Each meat is individually temped and evaluated before it leaves the smoker.

Sounds like a lot of work, right? Good thing JT and the guys in the kitchen enjoy it!

We hope you’ve already heard that all our our recipes are original and made from scratch. That’s one of the things we’re proud of.

Did you know that we are now grinding the spices for JT’s sauces and rubs in house? He’s always looking for ways to make our food fresh and high quality- and this little change makes a big difference!
