    Full Recipe:
    | Ingredients |
    -A brisket
    -Coarse black pepper
    -Kosher salt
    -Granulated garlic
    -Lawry's season salt
    | Instructions |
    Prep:
    1. Mix your rub together using this ratio: 3 to 1 pepper to salt, 1/4 Lawry's, and 1/4 granulated garlic: Example: 3 cups black pepper, 1 cup kosher salt, 1/4 cup Lawry's, and 1/4 cup granulated garlic.
    2. Season the brisket the night before smoking it, and allow it to sit in the refrigerator overnight.
    | Cooking |
    1. Set your smoker to 250º F, and allow the brisket to smoked until the internal temperature is between 170-180º F. More importantly, it is imperative you cook to the color you want, and that the rub is set. For this brisket, it took approximately 8.5-9 hours.
    2. Once the brisket is ready to wrapped, wrap tightly in two sheet of aluminum foil, bump the smoker up to 300º F, and continue cooking until tender. This took about 2-2.5 additional hours, and the final temperature was about 210.5º F, but most importantly it probed tender, which is what you want!
    3. Once the brisket is tender, open the foil and allow the brisket to steam off for 15 minutes. This will also allow the bark to set.
    4. After 15 minutes, cover the brisket back up with foil and let it rest for a minimum of 2 hours.
    5. After the brisket has rested, slice, eat, and enjoy!!

    A lot of guys think that they can cook a brisket better than the can. They will not leave the lid closed on their pit. So instead of a 10 hour cook they wind up with a 12 to 15 hour cook. You did great. By the way I have a pit boss and a Treager. I use my treager for mostly brisket.

    Wal-mart is not as bad as everyone makes it out to be . 99% of our food comes from wal-mart including meats . I smoke pretty much all our meat from Walmart and our family loves it . Not everyone can afford specialty meats . Knowing how to run your brand of smoker and cook times and temperatures is key to a quality product !!

    Thank you for the video, that brisket looks fantastic. I always thought it doesn’t matter where you buy the meat as long as you follow the grading system. So if you buy a Prime graded meat at the butcher or at a big box store, there’s no difference. Because it’s graded, it shouldn’t make a difference where it was purchased.

    I think the key with select and lesser value briskets is the maximum rest time of two hours I think. Anything more will dry it out.

    • @AshKickinBBQ
      @AshKickinBBQ  2 месяца назад

      I don't agree with that. There's a lot of places cooking select and doing a heated rest for 12+ hours

      @AshKickinBBQ  2 месяца назад

      @@nealvillarreal4367 I didn’t say that. I said there’s plenty of BBQ places cooking select and holding for longer than 2 hours. 99% of your success is going to be on proper execution and nailing tenderness. You could cook a wagyu brisket, and if you don’t cook it tender, it’s still going to suck. That’s just a fact.

    • @nealvillarreal4367
      @nealvillarreal4367 2 месяца назад

      Well I’m not denying that lots of places are doing that. All I’m suggesting is that it may be better not to rest it that long to get the most tenderness.

    @fletchbundy 2 месяца назад +1

    Paper softens up the bark too. That'd be a dumb complaint. I think thr benefit of paper is it soaks up the fat and if you keep ot wrapped in some of that fat will get back on as opposed to foil if you lose the juices they're gone.

      @@AshKickinBBQ Abs-freakin-lutely. My brother wants to learn to bbq so we're going to do briskets for Memorial Day. One of the first things he said was butcher paper and I shot it down QUICK! The best brisket I made I saved the juices and dipped the slices in it and I had injected, and used soda in the pan. I did it like Myron Mixon does, in an aluminum pan and then covered the pan so I caught everything. But I don't think covering works as well to wrap. Amazingribs says you have to have contact with the paper or foil to really get the Texas Crutch. Don't want to inject but we're going to do one brisket the traditional Texas market way and another the way most of these lying Texas BBQ joints actually do it by adding season salt to the salt & pepper.
