Trimming briskets isn't easy, but not as hard as most people think. Following for part 1 of 3 brisket videos. Hope you enjoy!
PSA: IF YOU HATE THE BACKGROUND MUSIC!
New Trim Video: ruclips.net/video/50sre8uf4tM/видео.html
I understand the complaint, but just know that this was one my first video I've ever made, and I've learned how to make better videos since then. So please go watch the other video. Also this is something that took many years to learn and to teach. I hope you can appreciate that I'm giving this information out for free. Haha.
I've probably watched a dozen trimming videos including franklin's, Harry soo and Texicana... This by far was the clearest and easiest with your camera angle. Thank you!
Aw man. I appreciate that. Thanks for watching.
Absolute facts. Ive watched a few others and there were too many bad angles, and too much idle banter, this was perfect.
0)lĺ).
I agree. I am a big fan of Harry Soo and Franklin, but this was one of the best trimming videos I have seen. Very good advice, I do the same.
Video is Great...Music👎
Man you really simplified that process. Thanks! I feel less intimidated bout trimming my first brisket now
Appreciate you watching! Hope you enjoy my other videos.
I have watched way too many brisket trimming videos and I have to say this has been the best, straight to the point. Thank you sooo much!!
Thanks so much. I made an updated video last month. Check it out. The entire process is pretty much the same, but I say things in different ways and there are some different angles that may help with your next trim l. Thanks for watching!
I too have seen many trim videos and have trimmed many briskets. This is the best I've watched. Your explanation as to why you trim each area was great and easy to understand.
For a lot of newbies, the hardest part of trimming is seeing how much is actually trimmed off! The end results is what we strive for but when people are paying premium for a big brisket, it's scary to trim so much. But, I like the way you do it and WHY. Every brisket is different, so I suggest people not worry about how much they trim because it's the end result that you are looking for, not the size of the brisket. Good job!
Grind it.
Thanks for such a good video, I’ve watched this video before every brisket I’ve cooked. One of the clearest trimming videos out there!
appreciate it! that means alot. hope you enjoy the other videos as well.
Watching brisket trims are very satisfying
What's this?!? You're being too nice to the haters in the comments, I had to stop watching!!!!
Lawl, kidding. This was a good vid. I was also annoyed with the music but I hung in there for a useful, detailed explanation of how you trim your brisket. Much respect for not sounding off at the rudeness in the comments! Everyone's a critic.
That finished product is stunning! Just a perfect shape, looks like it's ready to fly to Alpha Centauri.
there's enough hate in the world. i dont want to contribute to that. haha. thanks for watching.
Great Video, looks perfect BUT now we need a video on how to use the trimmings. What fat is garbage, what goes into hamburger...
Use the fat to make beef tallow. You can use the tallow to baste your steaks or even squirt some on butchers paper and wrap your brisket while it rests from smoking.
Very straightforward and I like how he debunks some methods that i have found don't produce the best results. As a beginner his simple method is making me look like a pro
I think this is the most helpful and detailed brisket trimming video I’ve seen. My skills are improving with every brisket
Aye! That’s awesome. Glad to hear it. The video will always be here for you. Haha
Great video on how to trim a brisket. By far the best on YT. The music was a bit annoying. So I just turned off audio and watched again.
This is the best simplistic video on trimming, so many videos' people are just going off the deep end and have excellent camera angles where you can't see what they are doing lol, not even talking about the brisket lol, this was so easy to watch and understand. Kudos.
Appreciate it. Hope it brings your brisket game to the next level!
@@knoxavebbq it will my friend 🤙🏼
Great video, and as a lefty it was nice to see how somebody does it - Thank you so much.
Because of the way you took the video overhead, this made it so clear. I wish Franklin did his this way,
I appreciate it. Everyone’s trim is pretty much the same nowadays so this is pretty much what he does with my own little tweaks. Thanks for watching!
Found you through Brad's channel. I gather you've cooked at a lot popular joints in/around Austin and learned from them. That's pretty awesome. Love your trim job. Super clean and slick. Watching Brad trim briskets has really upped my product and yours came out very similar to his. Subbing.
Appreciate it. Yup. I’ve been very fortunate to with some guys ppl and places.
i’m never gonna do this in my life it’s just satisfying to watch
nah,you won't be satisfied till you do.Probably every weekend
This video was so good and informative, that I actually was able to bear that atrocious background music and get through the entire video. Thanks man!
Awesome video. I’ve trimmed and smoked over 20 briskets, and read a lot and watched instructional videos, but I definitely learned from your vid.
My husband and I bought I huge brisket yesterday y. Needless to say I had no idea how to trim it. Watched your video and said I can do this!! Had two minor cuts but on whole I did great🤗. Thank you for making it clear on how to cut it 😊
Awesome! Let me know how it turns out!
I for the first time at 60 just cut 4 of these today. Since there are only 2 of us I ended up with 3 biscuits and the end piece was trimmed for a cornbeef. So all together we got 12 briskets and 4 cornbeefs. It was half the price per pound uncut. We also picked up 2 whole top round sirloin, 2 whole bottom sirloin,aka tri tip which I cut up. All of it half the price of pre cut. While it took me 6 hours im pretty proud I was able to do that after watching some great how to videos here. I've done our own game animals for many years but its not the same at all. I also ended up with a pack of steak bites and 3 pounds of stew meat. Im exhausted now but content. My better half did all the vacume sealing. You most certainly a second person to butcher that much in one day. Thank you for encouraging us.
that's awesome. it's definitely a lot of work and something to take pride in. thanks for watching!
@@knoxavebbq thank you for such great teaching!
That means a lot. I appreciate it. Let me know if you have any questions.
Bro, best video I’ve seen breaking down exactly how to trim a brisket. I’ve got a prime packer from Costco I’m smoking tomorrow and I’m going to follow your instructions exactly. Thanks so much for taking the time to make this video.
thanks for watching
Ive been smoking briskets for a couple of years now. And i always come back to watch this video, every time. Thanks for doing this video!
Thanks for watching! Hope you enjoy my other videos as well.
Dear Mr Yim -- For those of us who are absolute, total & complete novices (such as I), it would have been very helpful to see the finished product (i.e., the result after having been on the smoker) so that we'd have some idea of the appearance of the final result. However, you're forgiven. You likely believe that EVERYONE knows what it should look like -- even if they're absolutely, totally & completely ignorant (such as I).
Thank you, however, for identifying the knife you used. That actually was helpful!
Thanks Roger. I hope you watch the other 2 parts. This just the first part of my brisket series.
@@knoxavebbq Will do. My late wife was an absolutely superb cook, so I'm as close to being a complete novice at cooking as one can be.
Agree with some of the other comments. Probably the most informative brisket video I’ve seen. Thanks for sharing your knowledge with the rest of us.
thanks for watching!
Great video, from front to back, top to bottom this is all around the best video on RUclips for how to trim a brisket!!!!
Appreciate it. Thanks for watching!
I’ve watched this video multiple times and tomorrow I’ll be trimming and smoking my first brisket in my big green egg. Thanks for making this video, best one on YT about trimming in my opinion 👍
awesome! good luck!
Thanks Joe, I've also been trimming & smoking meats for the last decade. I've always hated showing friends & family on how to do it. But now I'll refer them to your channel & have them subscribe.
As a lefty this is great! Great overhead view also! Thanks
Glad to help. Thanks for watching!
Best brisket trim video on RUclips currently. Please post more videos :)
i appreciate it. you know, quality content doesn't come out very often. haha. jk. it's just alot of work on my end. normally the time it tastes me to trim a brisket it 5 mins, but just to film and edit took about a week. i will try my best though.
one of the best step by step brisket trimming videos I've seen, thanks! can't wait to see the next brisket videos you have coming
thanks! hopefully it'll help. share it with other bbq ppl you know!
ruclips.net/video/fnofgbJvyGo/видео.html
Gotta say, I’ve watched probably 5 other videos on this process, and im still not sure of myself. After watching your video, I had the light bulb moment. Great communication and description in your video. Job well done, thank you….I just wish I had found this last night before I butchered the packer brisket I just pulled off the smoker.
I appreciate it! Haha. It’s all good. Now you have it for next time. Thanks for watching!
It's possible that I missed you mentioning this, but I have found that trimming while the meat is right out of the fridge is much easier. That cold firm fat cuts very clean, but once it warms up, the fat gets jiggly and wants to move around quite a bit. Thanks for the vid!
yup! you're right about that. if mine warms up too much, i'll just wait to do it later after sticking it in the fridge, unless im really pressed for time.
Thanks. I watch this each time I have a brisket to trim. Works out great!
Glad it helps!
This was perfect. Super simple, great execution and explanations. Thanks man!!
Thanks for watching! Glad it helped. Make sure to subscribe for more videos like this! Happy holidays.
WOW! Trimming a brisket is much harder than it looks. Repetition is key. Great video!
I have been watching BBQ videos for months, first one that took the time to actually explain the difference between the point and the flat. Thank You.
Glad I could help. Thanks for watching!
One of the best if not the best trim videos I’ve seen
Appreciate it
Yep this is the best brisket trimming video on the net
appreciate it. and also sorry about the music. LOL!
one of the best trimming videos i seen thanks
Awesome.so happy to hear!
This is the best brisket trimming video I’ve seen. Well done! I’ll make sure to share it to my bbq groups.
Thanks! Appreciate it.
Thanks for the clear and entertaining instructions….. I’m gonna try my hand at cooking a whole brisket soon … so your video will come in handy 😊
Woohoo! Good luck! I also have an updated brisket trim and FULL brisket cook video that I poster earlier this year. Hope it helps.
Great vid! I need to find one that covers what to do with all of the trimmings. I'm sure we don't throw it all away!😄
Burgers and sausage. I have a couple burger videos and a Polish sausage video that’s pork, but you could do a 50/50 mix
@@knoxavebbq Thx and I meant to subscribe, so I'll fix that mistake now!😁
Loved this video Joe! I've always felt wasteful or just afraid of cutting too much but your explanation was super clear and made sense. Plus now we have a meat grinder for the trimmings so I'm paying more attention to trimming the brisket down correctly now. Thank you!

I'm a lefty as well, so this was very helpful. Thanks for this.
I’m doing it for all the lefties out there! Haha. Appreciate you watching
Probably the best video on timing a brisket. Thanks.
Appreciate it. I’m hoping to make an updated one soon
I actually liked the music. Happy Holidays, y’all.
🤣🤣🤣👍
Mighty Joe thank you my man. Very enjoyable watching you trim and hearing your thought process.
Thanks so much! I appreciate you watching. Be sure to check out the other parts to my brisket process and my other cooking videos!
Excellent trim vid Joe! Always learn a something new. I enjoyed your Terry Black and Truth vids as well, looking forward to more thx 👍🏻
appreciate it! thanks for watching.
I just bought two 13-15 lbs whole briskets and I am trimming them tonight. I don't have a boning knife but hopefully I can achieve these beautiful results. Will have to check out if you have a video on slicing cooked while brisket. Once I get to the point end, I lose all sense and reason.
Great video, but man that background music is a killer....lol
Appreciate what you get.
It sounds like Auld Lang Syne.
@@BeersAndBeatsPDX yes, that's what it's called! I was trying to remember through the whole video. I always just called it the new years song.
Haaa Haaa Haa.. The music..
I liked it :l
This is the best I've watched. nicely done man!
Thanks for watching!
Came across this video by chance and glad I clicked. By far the best and most informative brisket trimming video I've seen. Just subscribed and about to binge your videos. Thanks for the info and instruction!
ha! thanks. appreciate it.
Awesome, thank you for this video. Absolutely the best video on how to trim a brisket. Let’s just say my first brisket, prior to release of this video, was, well not so good. I thought I did well with the cook time and controlling the heat in my smoker. I just did not do well in my trimming process.
Awesome! We all gotta start somewhere. If you have an Instagram, post a picture and tag me in it so I can share with others!
Nice work, good tutorial. And finally, I can see a lefty trim a brisket! 😁
Yes! Lefties for the win! Haha.
@@knoxavebbq Haha! You know it! 👊
Would be GREAT to see what you are gonna do with all of the trimming. Especially the parts with a lot of good meat.
Agree - great video, but a lot of meat was removed in the process and ideas on how to best utilize that would be much appreciated! Thanks for all the effort into a very informative video!!!
I loved the music lol. And you slapped the brisket at the end, so I know you know what you're doing
LOL! youre in the minority with the music choice. i like it too. :D thanks for watching.
Great video, I have way more confidence now in trimming!
that's what the video is for.
Great point of view for the camera, really helped me see every angle
Appreciate it. Thanks for watching!
Smoking my first brisket this week. This was really nice to watch. Easy to follow. Now to pray that it turns out well.
Well?!?!
Neat Kerns Kerns My little sister tasted it and said I was hired for her birthday. My in-laws told me I can cook a brisket every week if I wanted to. So I’m guessing it was like all around. Lol
Thanks for such a detailed explanation of the trim!
Appreciate it. Thanks for watching!
Very educational video....learned a lot on trimming a brisket!!!! Thank you!
The loop of Auld Lang Syne is reminiscent of the floor in "One Flew Over the Cookoo's Nest". I would reconsider musical choices or, wouldn't it be novel, no distracting music at all.
New trim video has been uploaded last week. You can see it on my channel below
Great video! I’m not sure why, but I really want to yell, “HAPPY NEW YEAR!!”
😄
Thank you Joe !!! Can't wait on How to slice a brisket and some more tricks !
Best brisket trimming video I've found with the worst music.
Excellent instructions, thank you
appreciate it! hope it helps!
Great instructional video! I’ve smoked two briskets so far and trimming has been far and away the most daunting step. Your instructions really helps simplify the process. One question though, what is your recommendation for a good knife sharpener? I realize a sharp knife is key to easier trimming. Thanks again for the video!
Awesome! Glad it helps. Depends on if you have a nice knife, I would get it professionally sharpened. It’s not super expensive to do so. I even do it for my cheap knives. But I do use a honing rod every 3-4 briskets if I’m trimming a bunch of them. Hope that helps!
This was an excellent tutorial. It's better than Franklin's video. Beef Tallow and Brisket burgers could be made with the trimmings. Thank You.
Appreciate it! Yup. Definitely. Hope you get a chance to check out my other videos!
I’m a lefty also and people get nervous when I’m cutting with a knife.
Another lefty! Haha. Hope this helps. Thanks for watching!
This was an excellent, straight forward video on how to properly trim a brisket. Thank you.
Appreciate it. Check out the other videos to see the cook!
@@knoxavebbq I will check them out already subscribed.
I absolutely love this video. Thanks for not being a douche about your technique.
Understand there's a reason people trim brisket. Has alot to do with the size of their smoker.
I trim very little off of mine. Season mine 4 days in advance. Fat cap up over hicKory. Hours later pulled wrapped and sit. Then when serving I trim the fat for the brisket lovers.
The reason I do this is because trusting my pit I'm not lifting the lid causing more hours of smoking time
Allowing the fat to moisten the meat through the smoking process. Also it keeps the meat from drying out. I cone out with moist perfect brisket every time. Leaving the entire fat cap on after the meal has been served allows for reheating on other days and the meat doesn't dry out. Been doing this for 59 years.
Great! Keep doing what works for you. Thanks for watching.
Great video - avoided over-complicating. Thanks!
Appreciate it. Thanks for watching!
Great camera angle and explanation. Cheers
Thanks for watching It!
I use a longer straight carving knife and cut when pulling the blade. Enables me to have a longer cutting and flat surfaces.
whatever work! i've seen alot of ppl do it. i'm just faster with a shorter knife, but it looks super cool using a carving knife. haha.
I just started watching your videos. I'd like to see a video of what you do to your trim bucket.
Burgers, sausage or anything you would do with ground beef.
I’m a little puzzled by your reasoning in regards to trimming. You say, “I know it looks like I’m unnecessarily taking meat off,” which is what I’m thinking, but then you say, “but I prefer it this way because it’s smoother.”
What’s the purpose of making the meat smoother? Does it help it out in some way?
It’s a good question. You wanna smooth out edges, because the long cook time will dry out the edges that are too thin or too sharp so it’s best to remove them.
Best trimming video
I have a new video trim video just in case you want to see another version. Thanks so much for watching
I like the way you trim it🎉
Appreciate it. Thanks for watching!
Good video but please remove the background music… Auld lang syne not needed and distracting
@alain super sensitive 😂
To me, boom (smacks the fat) 🤌🤌🤌😂😂😂
Thanks for the video. Very informative. Much appreciated. Listening to Auld Lang Syne 5000 times in a loop is kind of a distraction though.
Check out my newer trim video. Appreciate you watching!
Awesome trim job.
I recently took a beef in to a meat processor we used for the first time and they basically destroyed my briskets. I asked for full untrimmed packers. What I got were 2 what look like half briskets that were scalped of the fat ON BOTH SIDES and trimmed out square! This was a 1400 pound steer that I pumped the grain to for the last 3 months to finish him out. He definitely would make prime and was out of a bull very well known for his marbling. These briskets were 7 and 7.5 pounds and they should have been at least 15 and more than likely 17+. Really disappointing. I wouldn't have used this processor except since covid everything is booked over a year out and this one was able to squeeze it in.
My short ribs were no better. The bones were cut maybe 2 inches long. The ribeyes do look amazing though.
Gonna stick to sams club prime packers I guess. I just got so jealous of this brisket. Sorry....Venting over haha
thank you. it took a lot practice. a lot of briskets were harmed in the process.
This is one of the best most clear lessons in trimming l have found. But please lose the noise. The instuction is so good l will endure it.
Awesome video!! Best informative video thus far. I'm starting this smoking / business dream head on and this helps tremendously.
That’s what it’s there for. Thanks for watching!
Thanks Joe. Much appreciated
Wow... 20 solid minutes of Old Lang Syne... change it up once in a while!
Come on Christmas!!!lol
Nice. Now I have that god damn song stuck in my head and it's April.
Great! Now you’ll never forget how to trim a brisket! 😁👍
@@knoxavebbq True. It was a well done video - thanks for taking the time to educate.
@@Rob-rs5rn sorry about it. i made that video before i knew how to make videos so i'll be making another brisket video some time in the near future
That looks Awsome, great instructions. Gonna try one this weekend (Walmart)!
Sweet! Tag me on IG @knoxavebbq
The next video I suggest you play the 1812 overture. Say something around the 4th of July
Having A.D.D. this was a bit distracting.🤣🎉🎊🍾🥂
Very useful & informative!
It's funny, I didn't actually notice the annoying music until I came to the comments and read everyone complaining about it.
Great video though, it would have been fun to see a before and after weight, because it looked like you trimmed a ton off there, more than I've seen pretty much anybody do so far, but I haven't gone and watched all of them yet.
Awesome video, you spalined it extremely well. Way more understandable than the other ones. Could do without the auld lang syne tho.
Thanks for watching
Exactly what I wanted to see. Will follow the same method on my next brisket. Thank you
Thank you, great video!👍 Throwing me off with your left handed cutting lol 😂 My dad was a lefty
Best video on RUclips period!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Haha. Appreciate it.
thank you for the first thing you do is put down some wet towels to stop the board from slipping.
A thing of beauty!
Thanks for watching! Hope it helps!
You made it look easy! Thanks!
It just takes some practice. Thanks for watching! Hope you enjoy my other videos as well!
Great video!!!
Thank you, Joe.
Please keep the videos coming.
Very nice explanation. I’m inspired.
appreciate it. Thanks for watching!
