It's corned beef. The first picture is blown out by the flash. What I was trying to do was capture the rainbow iridescence of the meat. I don't understand why this is this way. I sometimes see it in pork, but rarely in beef.

I smoked this brisket a couple weeks ago. It tasted great, and it was done, 165 in the center, but the meat could have continued cooking for another eight hours. It was not very tender.

Still, in this picture, you can make out the color difference in the muscle bundles. What makes it look that way?
