Speaks volumes to me when he basically says you don’t need the bibs he makes ands sells. Makes me want it more from someone with integrity. Also as a normal “work bibs” wearer I think they would be awesome!
Bought half your list. I love the knife. I bought a knife someone else I follow recommended and was crapola. Ty for keeping it real and not gouging with expensive knives
I have a thermopen and completely agree .I was getting a new thermometer at least once a year and decided to go all in. It was the best investment for better food.
About knives. I go for 58-60HRC hardness for outdoor use. No easy chipping and easy to maintain sharp. For my coffee I use the most simple stainless pergulator. Always some scotchbrite pads and barista towels. No gloves here, but always a foldable tub filled with water and detergent. Gloves mainly for rubs which stain like cumin. Pressurised spraying container for rinsing. Quick and easy, and better constant spray. Same a sprayer for oiling. ZIP bags for marinating. And don't forget strong aluminium foil. The duct tape for grilling. Long leather gloves and a good grillbrush.
Could have def used this vid 4 months ago when I got into smoking. I learned from watching you and a few other tubers to figure out what I needed. Now, it’s all in one place.
You can also go to the beauty supply shop and buy those spray bottles that the stylists use. They are sanitary cause they are used on people. They are heavy duty cause they are intended to be used all day every day in a salon. They also spray a fine mist which will give an even coating of spray on your food.
You are the reason I have a Thermapen and a Smoke X2. I am blown away at how good I can cook with accurate fast measurements. Thanks. I also can adjust my home oven to because it was very inaccurate on the temps.
18" heavy duty foil don't get the 12", also I would add baker's half sheets. You used them to bring food to and from your cooker, you can trim on them, a lot of uses for them
The thermopro waterproof thermometer is incredible. All other cheap thermometer are garbage, but thermopen figured out how to make a good one for a good price.
Try grilled brisket tacos. Slice brisket thin and season with lawry's. (Watch for flare up's) chop it up and place on a corn tortilla with some green gallos sauce. (Cilantro, onion, and lime optional)
You should test whether adding gasket tape in order to make a stronger seal on a pellet grill lid will increase the smoke flavor. I find that when adding a smoke tube, much of the added smoke flows out of the lid seal.
Mercer knives are among the best values around. Been using them for a few years. Last time I bought an expensive knife (big name, big reputation) I wound up giving it away after one use and replacing it with a Mercer. Everything Thermoworks makes is awesome.
When I cook outside, one item I can’t live without is welding gloves! I buy cheap ones from Harbor Freight. Also I keep a small fire extinguisher away from the grill.
OK, now watched the rest. I agree! Al half pans, heavy Al foil, and pink butcher paper with a cutter. Essential to outdoor cooking. I stumbled onto this running Weber kettles. But I still use the clumsy rubber mitts/gloves, usually cussing as I use them. You know the drill, they've been cleaned, in the middle of a cook, they kinda work, maybe similar to returning to an abusive spouse. I'll learn.
More like a Question on, "Long Resting the Brisket". While your brisket is wrapped and Resting for the Long haul, do you want the fat cap on the Bottom to cradle all the juices? Or does "Cap up" play any special roll instead? I use a pellet smoker so I will smoke with cap down towards the heat.
Thanks for all of the links and info, picked up the cotton gloves and boning knife. That knife is no joke, razor sharp! Very helpful video, you’re the man!
In leu of creating more trash you can buy HDPE cutting boards that will last a lifetime and can be hosed off and are dishwasher safe. I had US Plastic Corp cut me a 24"x18"x.5" peace of cutting board 11 years ago that is still perfect today. It cost me $25 after shipper and is still perfect. It looks like its about $38 today and they have basically infinite size options.
Nicely done... I don't consider myself much of a pitmaster, but oddly enough over time I have accumulated and use every item you mentioned other than the cotton glove liners and disposable cutting board.
For a double purpose with the nitrile gloves, I don't personally get black and get blue or something else because they also are perfect for first aid gloves as well. You don't want black for first aid because you can't tell the color of the fluid on your hand so you can't tell if it's blood or not.
Just bought a Thermapen One on Black Friday sale at $69.30 (before tax and shipping). It's come the time where I really need an instant accurate read on my temps. I will be cooking my first Brisket very soon.
Jeremy you are one of the handful of you tubers I watch consistently. Found you and several others during the pandemic and cannot thank you enough for the insight, lessons, and passion you bring to the channel. Keep on keeping on brother and thank you.
Victoirnox for me. And a long carving knife. Agreed. Get some great knives. And just invested in a roll of butcher paper. :) You and Chef Tom are my favorite bbq RUclipsrs.
Great info. The only thing I wish you would have done is shown us what your bbq go box looks like. I’m thinking about just having a plastic storage tub
What kind of stick/wood smoker that has a lower height of cook chamber would you recommend? I’m in a wheelchair and a smoker that’s lower would make things much easier and safer
Great list! (Especially the fatty butcher paper) My only issue is with the coffee... some of us don't drink coffee, so as an alternative, using the old faithful adage "it's 5 o'clock somewhere", I stick with a top quality west coast style, hoppy IPA (IBU of 65 or higher :) Cheers 🍻
Man, that sounds like heaven. I normally start off easy with a good ol Milter Lite, then a lager, and work my way up the brew chain. Nothing like a cold IPA during a cook. Cheers 🍻
Yellow fizzy water,,,,,,not in my refrigerator! It's been a while since I last brew my own beer, but IPA is always my first choice, I have Elysian Space Dust in the refer now, but a Mac & Jack African Amber is also a tough competitor for me, not an IPA but still really good. When I find it on tap, it's always my first choice. I'm in the pacific northwest, coffee central. I like my coffee strong, fresh ground from the bean, 16oz, triple long shot, no extra flavors. We are coming into the warmer season so it's gonna be triple long shots on ice!
I might be the only person who prefers his Javelin Pro Duo over his ThermaPen. They both work almost identical (I have had both for over a year) but the Javelin is magnetic and I can stick it to surfaces that are out of the way of my limited cook space. Not to mention the Javelin is half the price. Maybe it'll die faster but so far so good!
I was just thinking about upgrading my bbq/smoking game with new accessories. This video came out at the perfect time. Thank you, definitely gonna be using the links.
Great list and use everything you’ve mentioned can’t think of anything you’ve left out other than an optional smoke tube for my pellet smoker and a propane torch. I also like my wireless Meater, but it’s not a must.
@@CarnivoreKipp Yeah, guess I was suggesting for people that do? Though, I’ve seen many a video of his in the recent past that featured pellet smokers exclusively. .
Thermapen is a great product but I have to say...the advent of the wireless (or even wired) probes that connect to bluetooth or, even better, to wifi have been a game changer for me. With brisket times varying so greatly, and with me usually wanting them done early afternoon, it means I'm putting them on at bedtime. It's nice to be able to wake up, glance at my phone, and see "oh it's in the stall' and knowing I can go back to sleep for a bit. I was using the thermapro bluetooth setup and it was great, but recently got a masterbuilt gravity series that connects to wifi - the app is absolute crap and you have to restart it every time your phone goes to sleep (which is why I turn off phone sleep and leave my phone on a charging stand if I'm smoking something) but the ability to leave the house when I've put something on and see the temp o f the meat, the temp of the smoker etc at a glance is fantastic. I get that popping probes in and out can be a bit of a pain but it is absolutely great to be able to go out to dinner, run to the store etc and just be able to keep a paranoid grillers view on my meat.
slightly off topic, but if you are probing for tenderness, why would you need a super accurate thermometer other than the wired kind that get you in the ballpark to start checking? i can see it for steaks and grilling situations though
Is there any difference between pink and white butcher paper? I bought a large roll of white butcher paper from a restaurant supply store. It seems to be working fine.
7:40 the one problem that i have with gloves and optional liners for me is, im a big guy (6'4 360lb+) my hands are significantly larger than average. i found a brand with 2x gloves online that fit well so i bought 2 200 count boxes but ran out and cant find that brand anymore. the 2x that i have now are smaller than the others and are uncomfortable and i cant fit the thin cotton liners that i have. i have that problem with any form of clothing though so i shouldnt be surprised.
@@RealKlausSchwab well, working out and lifting heavy weight is a type of exercise, which i do regularly, admittedly less than i use to, but that will never change the size of my hands. my hand span from tip of thumb to tip of pinky is like 10 inches and my hand is about 5 to 5 1/2 inches wide. i dont see gloves that size in stores that often. same as no store ive ever visited carries a size 16 shoe, so i have to order those as well, and since i am taller and larger than the average male my shirts need to be a good 2 inches longer making them labeled 3xTall or 4xTall which shocker also isnt sold in most stores. there is a saying about people that assume things.
Great advice! My students ask me too, how much coffee do you drink? My reply is similar to yours, “All I want.” The Thermapen One is fantastic! However, ThermoWorks has other good options like the Dash, for those of us on a Teacher’s budget. So why do you speak so fast Jeremy? Is it because you drink coffee or that you were a teacher? With me, the answer is “yes” and “yes”. Great advice on barbecue essentials.
Can u do a video showing all your grills / smokers & if u have a storage area / shed for your grills / smokers & bbq tools?? Need sum outside ideas so that wldnt want the wifey mad @ me like u mentioned before...
My question on the gloves though. I often use the heavy leather gloves to be able to bump in to hot (metal) parts of the BBQ because I am clumsy. Do the Nitrile gloves withstand some heat without melting? Because I agree the big heavy gloves get really dirty and you lose your dexterity
11) Lump Charcoal over regular (cheap) charcoal - Burns cleaner and longer, also doesn't leave as much of an ashy mess. Used Kamado Joe's XL Lump charcoal and it's worth the money. Only con is it can be expensive, thank God there is Walmart.
My offset tears through lump because the airflow through it. It doesn't do that with briquettes. Also the lump gets so hot that I have to roll dirty smoke to keep the temps down and can't add wood. I may have to play with it more. Definitely like the less ash of the lump though and it works well in my kettles
I have couple of vertical propane smokers. And really like them. What are you thoughts on those? I recently cooked a brisket on one and noticed that the bottom dried out quite a bit. Any tips on that?
Ahhh... Spray bottles... They are a necessity I think, but, mine always turned moldy either at the top or bottom no matter how much I cleaned them after a cook. I ended up giving up and now just use a bowl with a brush these days.
This is a great list Jeremy! I absolutely love all things Thermoworks, My Mercer Trimming and slicing knife have been awesome so far. Foil pans are a life saver for sure. I may have to check out the disposable cutting boards but I like the plastic ones for raw meat and wood board for finished or cooked food or raw veggies.
You should have combined coffee with a beer. Coffee when you are waking up early as heck to start the cook and a cold one when you are taking it off the smoker.
Thanks. I tried to sneak a question about this into you, during a Q & A you did on a live stream. Was very curious, besides what you cook on, what else helped you while making barbecue.
J my wife says I need to get rid of my grills and get just one. I have a Kettle, vertical offset smoker, pellet grill and a 6 burner gas grill. Any suggestions?
1) GOOD instant read thermometer
2) Decent boning/trimming knife
3) Decent carving knife
4) Nitrile gloves (thick)
5) Cotton glove liners (put on under nitrile gloves cuz heat)
6) Cheap spray bottle
7) Foil pans
8) Disposable cutting boards
9) Heavy Duty Aluminium foil
10) Butcher paper
Thank you!
Thank you

Speaks volumes to me when he basically says you don’t need the bibs he makes ands sells. Makes me want it more from someone with integrity. Also as a normal “work bibs” wearer I think they would be awesome!
Those bibs make my neck hurt just looking at Jeremy wearing them, they look way uncomfortable.
Everything I know about smoking meat I've learned from him!
Right? Cool dude right there.
LMAO, simp. “Someone with integrity.” Yet he snuck in a sponsored/paid AD for coffee as one of his Top 10 Essentials LOL…..
@@stuartmeier240 leather is Texas would be uncomfortable!
#11 Outdoor sink! I built an outdoor kitchen and have a 20 x20 ss sink designed for outdoors. Life saver, keeps the wife happy.
For all you barbecuing parents out there (parents of younger children, that is), I also use the thermapen to check the temp on bath water for my son!
Bought half your list. I love the knife. I bought a knife someone else I follow recommended and was crapola. Ty for keeping it real and not gouging with expensive knives
This channel is the number one bbq essential.

I've had one since Christmas 2018. It's still on the original batteries and works incredibly well.
@@Metal_Auditor Yeah me too. But I've replaced the batteries twice. I keep hoping it will break. So far, no luck.
These are the type of videos that caught my attention. Thank you for you time. This video should be watched by a million viewers.
Up at 0400. Doing a brisket and drinking coffee.. have everything in this awesome video!!! Always great videos!!
My wife and I have a variety of Mercer knives. We love them. All are great and have had them for years.
I use a fisker filet knife for trimming. Found in the fishing section at your local big box store.
Southern Weather is my preferred coffee to use in the brewery. All our coffee beers are made with that. It’s so very tasty!
About knives. I go for 58-60HRC hardness for outdoor use. No easy chipping and easy to maintain sharp.

That's what I get, the white handle ones. When I bought them I thought about what I used on restaurants
the way you slide your sponsor in the video was so smooth love the videos man! keep it up
SOLID video Jeremy! All you mentioned I’ve lived and concur. Your viewers will benefit greatly by following this advice.
I love the fact that you use costco alot I work at one they r the only place I buy meat from we don't have a butcher shops ..keep up the great work 👏
I also work at Costco!! Love his plugs!!
18" heavy duty foil don't get the 12", also I would add baker's half sheets. You used them to bring food to and from your cooker, you can trim on them, a lot of uses for them
Thermapen all day long. Use mine almost daily.

I did notice that everything other than the thermapen is disposable on this list. Though I suppose no one is getting into bbq to be eco friendly
Thanks for sharing your glove system!
Nicely done... I don't consider myself much of a pitmaster, but oddly enough over time I have accumulated and use every item you mentioned other than the cotton glove liners and disposable cutting board.
Question for you what do you think on doing a brisket with no salt just garlic and pepper
For a double purpose with the nitrile gloves, I don't personally get black and get blue or something else because they also are perfect for first aid gloves as well. You don't want black for first aid because you can't tell the color of the fluid on your hand so you can't tell if it's blood or not.

Just ordered a Thermopen, we'll see how it works!
What type of "box" do you use for your "bbq go box" that you mentioned several times

Great info as usual. I love that FatStack offset so much! wish I had $5K to throw at it.
You’re not alone !!
I use a Bubba Blade 7 inch fillet knife to trim Brisket.
slightly off topic, but if you are probing for tenderness, why would you need a super accurate thermometer other than the wired kind that get you in the ballpark to start checking? i can see it for steaks and grilling situations though

there is a saying about people that assume things.
I’d like to add to the aluminum foil roll. Make sure it’s wide as well, the narrow ones really don’t cover much
at $63 too pricy for me. Will wait until aluminum comes down in price. If everyone does like me and doesn't buy, it will come down in price!
What is a great meat probe that I can use and monitor away from home?
Great info…But what about the cigars? 😆 What’s your go to cigar for fire tending?
So when I comes to beef ribs and brisket. Is wrapping in foil no good or does butcher paper have benifiets I don’t know about?
Academy Sports actually carries a pack of nitrile gloves that comes with a pair of cotton gloves in their bbq section.
Great advice! My students ask me too, how much coffee do you drink? My reply is similar to yours, “All I want.”
The Thermapen One is fantastic! However, ThermoWorks has other good options like the Dash, for those of us on a Teacher’s budget.
So why do you speak so fast Jeremy? Is it because you drink coffee or that you were a teacher? With me, the answer is “yes” and “yes”.
Great advice on barbecue essentials.
Cutting board sold out. Is the Zep sprayer BAPA free and rated for food?

Looking for feedback. Going to buy a pellet smoker. Mid range $1,000-$1500… Reteq vs Green Mountain Prime, what would you suggest?
Does it matter on the color of the butcher paper..Will white work?
This is a great list Jeremy! I absolutely love all things Thermoworks, My Mercer Trimming and slicing knife have been awesome so far. Foil pans are a life saver for sure. I may have to check out the disposable cutting boards but I like the plastic ones for raw meat and wood board for finished or cooked food or raw veggies.
Can you tell us was the size is of your disposable cutting board? Thw link supplied didn't seem as large as the one you were holding. Thanks.
I only buy the heavy duty foil from Costco. I hate the price but I love the quality
All solid advice. I never knew about disposable cutting boards. Definitely going to check into that.
