Well sir...I have to say, that this was possibly the best, most enjoyable, most educational, and most entertaining, hour and forty minutes I have spent, in a long, long time! And like a number of others who follow you, I will be smoking a brisket for Independence Day. You got this video out at the PERFECT time. I have watched MANY barbecue videos over the years. Some of them better, and some worse, than others. But I have NEVER watched one as in depth, and thorough, as this one. I don't know you personally, but I feel like I have GOTTEN to know you SOME, by way of your videos. This vid is near, or AT, the top of the BBQ list. In my opinion, I believe that you were BORN to do this! I am a LOT older than you are, and probably older than most of your followers. And what I can say, is that you are what my generation called "a MAN'S MAN." Someone that OTHER men look up to, and admire. Someone who is no man's fool. A man that "represents" all of us, at our best. Call me a fanboy. Call this a bromance. Call it whatever you LIKE! What I call it, is one man, appreciating ANOTHER man, for doing what he most clearly LOVES doing. BBQ, is the (smoke) ring, that binds us. One day, I would like to be able to shake your hand, and thank you, in person...God willing. Thank you (and Mrs. Meat n' Greet,) for all of the time and effort!! Hard work DOES pay off. Happy American Independence Day!!
THIS my brother is what keeps me coming back to film more videos. Thank you isn’t nearly enough. Would be an honor to shake your hand and thank you for your support. My wife and I are grateful for quality people like you that show love to our little channel when there’s so much content out there grabbing your attention. Cheers my friend!! 🍻🙏
Oooohhhh Yeahh!! I too have watched many many BBQ videos and This One IS the Most In-depth and Informative one I have Ever seen on Briskets. Well Done and ThankYou, Sir 😊👍👍. You nailed those!
@@MeatNGreetBBQ I was surprised to see you didn't have at least 100k subs. Keep going man! You got a great start so far and your videos are better than most out there. Keep chipping away!
Folks…this is gona be an actual brisket masterclass. Can I tell you that your fire management video took my bbq pop to the next level…you da man(that’s my Chicago accent coming through ✊🏽)
brotherman, I can speak with certainty that this video is on par if not better than the Aaron Franklin's Masterclass. I've been intimidated by briskets but have known I wanted to get into cooking them for a few years now. I'm proud to say watching the two videos on repeat really helped guide me through the process of my first cook. Your videos intuitively answer all of the questions people will encounter on their first cooks. Thank you so much for the quality content. You helped bring proper bbq to me in Canada. 🙏
Legit straight forward, and very clear detailed instructions for smoking a good brisket! I have to add one thing. Anything you smoke, the better cut of meat you buy, the better the outcome. And most importantly, the pricier cuts show a little more mercy on rookies. They are harder to dry out or turn into beef roast because of all that marble that choice doesn't have. Even with that, learn with cheap choice brisket first! You get that right, when you buy prime it's going to be 🔥.
Thanks brother! 100% agree. This was a Sam’s club choice lol figured not everyone can stomach buying a creekstone prime for their first rodeo. Thanks for the support boss 🙏
A Honest man showing you a honest cook. Out of all the Pitmaster I have watched over the years, I must admit Meat n' Greet is have took me to the next level of my cooking journey. A legend is born. I will always be grateful and thankful for this Masterclass.
THANKS TO THE RUclips ALGORITHM gods!!! About a week ago I started down a rabbit hole of 'how to' videos for smoking brisket and tonight the algorithm brought your video up for me and BY FAR!! this is the most thorough, detailed and engaging brisket video I've come across. The almost 2 hr video went by so quick with the way you presented everything. It was very detailed and nerdy but also still very fun and engaging, great work!! Thank you @Meat n' Greet!! I'm a rookie griller who is getting prepped to smoke his first brisket ever! I'm still a little nervous about it but with your video, I'm much more confident that it won't come out completely like 💩. Great video bro!! You got a new subscriber! 👍🏽
We are now family. It took all day between cooking pork belly burnt ends for a buddy and delivering them. Now cooking another batch for our party along with ribs for supper. Oh ya, made brunch on the griddle, all the while watching this amazing video. If you have made brisket several times or just starting I guarantee you will pick up at least 5 amazing tips. Good work brother.
At the risk of repeating so many positive things that have been said previously by others, I just had to put my 2 cents in and tell you how much I really enjoyed your content. So educational, informative, entertaining, and helpful from beginning to end! KUDOS to you for the talent you have not only as a BBQ expert but as a content creator and tremendous communicator!!! Outstanding my friend!!!!! I’m going to your next video tomorrow on how to trim a brisket and Wednesday I’ll be doing my first Brisket cook!!! Thanks so much again for this amazing video!!!🙌👍🙏❤️
So much time and effort into this video, we all appreciate this. Did you ever work at a bbq joint, you know your stuff boss. Your rib recipe is my fave.
Thanks for saying this bro really appreciate your support 🙏. Never worked at a bbq restaurant before just self taught. But I have reached out to TX restaurants and offered free work 😂 haha. They never respond but if I got the chance I certainly would.
I've been grilling over 50 years. Last year I drove 150 miles to buy a good conditioned, Oklahoma Joe Longhorn Offset. After making a few tweeks, I've been smoking meats several times a month (even in Pittsburgh winter-I have a gazebo). I have been following several of the RUclips Gurus but no one has taken the time to fill in all of the gaps. I've cooked 4 briskets to date with varying degree of success. I'm doing my 5th brisket for the 4th of July and with your guidance in hand, I expect the results to be spectacular. Thanks for the love!
The temp of the meat determines how much smoke the meat will take on. Once the meat reaches a certain temp, that chemical reaction that creates the smoke ring stops. The colder the meat is when it starts taking on smoke, the more smoke flavor it will absorb and larger the smoke ring
While I appreciate your insights brother I must say, smoke ring is probably the last concern on a list of 1,000 concerns as it pertains to brisket quality.
Probably the most comprehensive and detailed rooter-to-the-tooter instructional video on cooking brisket that I have seen yet, so bravo-zulu to you, sir. I have smoked many a brisket (and every other meat that can be smoked), but I still watch whatever I can to see if I can learn something new, whether a trick or a tip that I haven't heard before. I didn't really learn anything new from this one, but it was so comprehensive and detailed that I wanted to comment on it for anyone else just getting into the art. Well done!
Brother THANK YOU for dropping this comment. Really appreciate your support and for showing the channel some love in the comment section! Glad you enjoyed the video as well, cheers my friend 🍻
Your timing could not have been any better brother! I just picked out my brisket for the 4th and can't wait to apply all the tips you have taught us from trimming to fire management to cooking and most important...feeding! Thank you so much for everything you do! God Bless!
Big Frizz, you out done yourself with this one! Hands down the best brisket video out there. I have only gotten better as a pit master after watching all your videos. You’re doing the lords work. Appreciate you, brother!
I just watched the video, and I appreciate your love for BBQ. I learned a lot from watching your video, and I want to thank you for the lesson. I have to say I'm going to be buying a warmer. It is the key to making a brisket go from good to great. I like how you cold-smoked in the beginning. It set your smoke ring, raising the temp as the cook rolled along, rendering the fat pushing the stall. Checking every 20 minutes is a game-changer. I've learned so much. It's the best hour and forty-minute video I've watched on RUclips. This video was awesome! Thanks again; my BBQ game will be on point thanks to your lesson.
Stoked you enjoyed the video brother!!! You’ll LOVE that warmer I promise. It’s going to change your bbq forever. Thanks for supporting the channel my friend! Hope to see you around in the comments again, cheers bro 🍻
As I have been on brisket journey for 6-7 yrs and ruined sev I appreciate this. Finally moved onto a custom offset, smaller 18” diameter, so I have found to keep temps down 15degrees is over bigger ones. One thing Id rec is please please try the thermoworks system! I have the pens also…BUT, you can have those two areas probed thru entire cook, always monitoring, can see graph for another data/perspective point. Its such a pleasant exp. Today I am going for best Ive ever made, and recapping this vid again for notes.
Also, I have resorted to using 1.5days for brisket. Ideally Id rest for 4-6hrs prob (exp would say). But that means up at 2am. So I cook like 11am-11pm then heated hold rest overnight. Ninja countertop oven reheat mode moves no fans at all and at 170 oscillates 162-174 and holds meat at like 158-160. Lunch next day is heavenly, wish I could post pics
I really learned from this video!! It felt like we were talking not you talking at me like other YT videos!! I know my way around the pit but always good to learn more. Thanks Brother!!!
Big Frizz- youve done it again. Having cooked my fair share of briskets, one thing i know is there is ALWAYS something we can gain from other experiences. I personally dont like using a binder. Not opposed to it in anyway, i just dont know that ive ever felt it add something. However your Mustard and pickle juice binder got my brain GOIN! As always, your content is killer, and always entertaining. But most importantly i can feel your realism, personality, and passion come through in these very thoughtful productions. Thank you Mr and Mrs Meat n greet!
EPIC COMMENT!! As ALWAYS bro thank you for showing love. Stoked you enjoyed the video. And excited I got the wheels spinning on the binder. I promise you’ll see your rub latch onto the brisket more efficiently 😅. Thanks for supporting big dog. Cheers 🍻
@MeatNGreetBBQ no for sure I'm rethinking my entire stance on binders. I never tend to have issues with my rub sticking. I tend to wait for the meat sweats to start grabbing onto the rub. But lately I've had a couple cooks puzzle me a bit. I think I need to dial back the temps a bit in the beginning stages and, well, give my rub a headstart at that conversion. Keep it up!
I’ve spent 7 years studying, traveling to Texas bbq places, hung out with pitmasters picked their brains, catered events for free(they pay for meats) just to gain experience over and over again. if a video like this was produced at the start of my journey I would have probably cut out a few years and made great bbq sooner. Experience is important and teaches you how to deal with weather, unforeseen circumstances, and time management. I don’t regret it since I met a ton of great people, but ultimately this video gives you the in depth details that go from a good brisket to a great one. Attention to detail makes the difference. Phenomenal job and thank you for putting the work in. Cheers.
Just in time, I just got done building my 500-gallon smoker. I wish I could show it to you. I smoked a brisket last weekend just like this, it tured out great. I also bought your brisket booster. It came in the mail today. I can't wait to try in on my next brisket cook. Keep up the awesome videos. Thanks.
I really enjoyed your video. Here are 4 pro tips to make your amazing brisket even better: 1) don't forget to season your sides of your brisket. 2) I highly recommend brining the brisket in 64 oz of beef brotha and 1 cup the night before. this tip comes from Myron Mixon. i found it makes a thicker smoke ring 3) Take a bread pan and smoke your beef tallow. that way it's also infused with smoke flavor. it tastes way better 4) Use meat probes in the whole time so you always know what the temp is vs having to check every 20 minutes at the end
Thanks for watching and supporting! 1. I don’t season sides of briskets. 2. Brining is the most unorthodox thing I’ve ever heard lol. I would highly advise against doing that unless you’re making corned beef/pastrami. In short, you couldn’t pay me to brine a brisket. Brining & injecting is for competing. This is back yard craft bbq here my friend. 3. I don’t like smoking beef tallow. I’ve smoked many many gallons worth of beef tallow over the last 15 years and prefer a clarified unsmoked tallow. My briskets (as most do) get enough smoke flavor. I don’t need extra from smoked tallow. Also, I prefer the texture of unsmoked tallow. 4. Meat probes are for cheaters 😅. I don’t need a meat probe and if you’ve watched my other videos I am anti meat probes. I think learning how to bbq without probes makes the most complete Pitmaster. I say all this with extreme respect. But given this is my channel in which I teach people, I wouldn’t feel comfortable subscribing to any of this advice or advocating for it, and wouldn’t pass it on to our other friends who enjoy the content. But again, really appreciate the support brother. Hope to see you around 🙏🙌
This is the kinda BBQ show we need. Long. Nerdy. and delicious. Getting into the weeds is imperative for a lazy Sunday...planning your next Q session. I'm ready for the next one.
YES YOU GET IT BRO!! Haha and to think this video started off being 4 hours long with over 6 hours of content. It was a miracle my wife was able to compress it down to a digestible hour 45, she’s a saint. Thanks for the support brother means a lot!
Bro!!! Of the hook!! Thank you so much for taking your time. Been following for a while!! I live in a small island , Puerto Rico, and I luv BBQ and low & slow smoking. My brisket game has amped up a lot. Grateful for your time once again
I've been watching all videos having anything to do with cooking briskets for an upcoming neighborhood 4th of July get together. My man, you hit it out of the park with this video!! It'll definitely be my go to video from now on. Thank you so much for this video especially but also for all of your other great videos, they are much appreciated!!
Gary always love hearing from you my friend. Thank you for supporting the channel. You’re going to crush your brisket cook this 4th!! Cheers brother 🇺🇸🍻
My man, this is hands down the BEST bbq channel on RUclips! All these other guys are clowns. You’re actually passionate about the craft, these other clowns are just in it for show and/or for the money. I’ve watched all your videos numerous times end to end and never felt like I had to fwd. I genuinely enjoy your content. Feels like I’m hanging out with you in your backyard. Keep doing what you’re doing. Big fan here from New Jersey! Cheers brother!
Bro really appreicate this big time means a lot!! HAHA I have to stay diplomatic on the topic but you know I'll never do anything for the clout or the $$. Only here to give as much info as I can, if the money comes because of the hardwork then so be it. But ya boy is all about the craft!! Thanks for all your support bro means a lot!
@@MeatNGreetBBQ Diplomacy is definitely the right way to go. But you know how I feel lol. You’re right, if the money comes, that’s a double bonus. And it will, it’ll come hard and fast at your rate. ✊🏽
loved this video!!! I have needed a more informative video on this. I have been smoking meat for about a year and a half. I have never done a brisket. I just did some pour mans brisket and I think I over cooked it. I wish I would have seen this two days ago!! keep the videos coming brother!! Your part of my fam at this point!! Cheers, drinking bud and Jack!! Smoking spirits not cigars!!
@MeatNGreetBBQ no. Truly, thank you! I just bought my first offset smoker about a month ago. My first cook was a brisket and it was amazing, but I'm always looking to up my game. Your videos are awesome and explain things really well. And honestly, one of my favorite aspects is how humble you are about it all.
Frizz!! AMAZING AMAZING video. I'm so glad I caught this literally 1 day before I started a brisket smoke on a backyard vertical smoker in the middle of an Australian Winter. I've watched a lot of BBQ content before but catching this one - everything finally made sense. The principles you go over are indeed applicable to any smoker. I followed your recommendations and smashed out the most moist brisket with an amazing bark to share with my loved ones. Thanks again o/
Wow what video if you have any interest in smoking anything watch this video, Meat n Greet is the GOAT of all videos and education. Thankyou for sharing your knowledge
I have literally watched every smoking video out there… Never, ever… have I seen someone put onions in the fire… You sir, have produced the finest brisket masterclass out there… Well thought out, well shot, well edited… Absolute perfection all around. I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again… Thanks for keeping it real and honest 🔥🔥💨💨🍻🥃
My man!!!! ALWAYS coming through with the support, can’t thank you enough boss! Super happy to hear you enjoyed the video. More to come for sure. Cheers friend 🍻🙏
Great video man. I’m taking a few tips from this video to try for sure. Your fire management video from a while back definitely helped me out when cooking multiple cuts of meat on our big offset smoker. Now I’m trying to learn my new cabinet smoker and sometimes it’s a head scratcher. Thanks for keeping it going.
Thank you so much for this and the brisket trimming video. I’m new to smoking meat, I’ve screwed up 2 other briskets (badly) using other videos before I found yours. I just finished my 3rd attempt at a Brisket and it was incredible. My brisket looked night and day different from the last one after using your trimming video. I used my Komado Joe and Im so happy with how it turned out. Thanks again, you’re the man.
Alright sir!!! I began watching your videos a couple weeks ago with your fire management video. Man... was phenomenal for my fire management to be more efficient. Always looking to learn and improve my game and you have given me new insight. Love the passion and enthusiasm. You have been a game changer for me. Thank you for your work!!!
Awesome looking Brisket from an awesome dude, this video rules. This video really made me want to go out and get a brisket despite just making one like a week ago.
Have been watching your videos the last little bit (including this one). This might be the most underrated bbq page on RUclips (and I've watched most of them) and it's just getting started. Thanks for the exceptional attention to detail, continuing to learn as always!
10:04 I season brisket in a shallow lipped pan to somewhat control seasoning the kitchen. You want the bark on the brisket not to hear the bark from your partner when you get done making a mess.
LMAO! I made my wife listen to the part about getting pepper all over the floor. she's always complaining about seasoning all over the floor. great video man
Much needed video for me my man. I definitely learned a ton. Most importantly I learned that a brisket could be done before 203 or 205 degrees. Ive tempted my briskets at 190 or 195 and they were very tender but I always thought that I had to take them higher and always overcooked them when I did. Hey thanks for the awesome video and knowledge!
Glad you enjoyed the video my friend. Man that concept took me some time to learn and really believe. Learning to trust feel has gone a long way. Thanks for the support bro! Cheers 🍻
I will be cooking a brisket this Friday. Looking forward to trying these techniques on my backyard smoker, a Brazos. Your videos have really helped kick my bbq up a notch or two!
Just started watching your videos young man thank you so very much very informative on how to do a brisket have never tried one but now I’m am going to give it a try thank you so very much for the information
What a symphony. Been waiting a while for this video to drop and it was well worth it. Thanks for providing all this knowledge and putting it into a long format video.
Hey Mate, Probably the best brisket master-class I've see on the Tube. The building of the temp is totally new thinking for me! Thank you so much. Keep up the great content; learning heaps! Cheers HB
Sheeesh those are heavy words right there brother I’m truly thankful for your support. It means a lot to my wife and I! Cheers bro, hope to see you around in the comments my friend 🍻🤙
Folks, this is the next big guy in youtube BBQ. You definitely know what you're doing and entertaining in the process. Im a fan!! Your fixin to shoot up to 100k subs in no time!! Hope all the best for you, brother!! 🍻
Mike THANK YOU brother for the support and encouragement. Can feel like I’m in some hidden corner of RUclips sometimes haha, praying the good Lord shines a light. Cheers bro 🍻
@MeatNGreetBBQ Yep, know how you feel being a small channel getting started. Your quality of content, knowledge, and charisma is up there with the best of em. Your fixing to take off. You'll be up there in no time at all with the big dogs!! Smoke on, brother!! 🍻
Well sir...I have to say, that this was possibly the best, most enjoyable, most educational, and most entertaining, hour and forty minutes I have spent, in a long, long time!

Wow thanks brother

Damn, this was excellent. I watched it at work on nightshift 🤫. You’re a natural teacher brother. God bless
I won’t tell anyone your secrets safe with me haha. Thanks for the support brother. God bless 🙏🙏
I really learned from this video!! It felt like we were talking not you talking at me like other YT videos!! I know my way around the pit but always good to learn more. Thanks Brother!!!
Big Frizz- youve done it again. Having cooked my fair share of briskets, one thing i know is there is ALWAYS something we can gain from other experiences. I personally dont like using a binder. Not opposed to it in anyway, i just dont know that ive ever felt it add something. However your Mustard and pickle juice binder got my brain GOIN!
As always, your content is killer, and always entertaining. But most importantly i can feel your realism, personality, and passion come through in these very thoughtful productions.
Thank you Mr and Mrs Meat n greet!
EPIC COMMENT!! As ALWAYS bro thank you for showing love. Stoked you enjoyed the video. And excited I got the wheels spinning on the binder. I promise you’ll see your rub latch onto the brisket more efficiently 😅.
Thanks for supporting big dog. Cheers 🍻
@MeatNGreetBBQ no for sure I'm rethinking my entire stance on binders. I never tend to have issues with my rub sticking. I tend to wait for the meat sweats to start grabbing onto the rub. But lately I've had a couple cooks puzzle me a bit. I think I need to dial back the temps a bit in the beginning stages and, well, give my rub a headstart at that conversion.
Keep it up!
I’ve spent 7 years studying, traveling to Texas bbq places, hung out with pitmasters picked their brains, catered events for free(they pay for meats) just to gain experience over and over again. if a video like this was produced at the start of my journey I would have probably cut out a few years and made great bbq sooner. Experience is important and teaches you how to deal with weather, unforeseen circumstances, and time management. I don’t regret it since I met a ton of great people, but ultimately this video gives you the in depth details that go from a good brisket to a great one.
Attention to detail makes the difference.
Phenomenal job and thank you for putting the work in.
Cheers.
Wow you’re a legend brother thank you for dropping in and showing love in the comments. Your support really means a lot 🙏🙏
Way to keep it interesting while still giving detailed information. Well Done (no pun intended)
Much appreciated bro!! Pun is spot on btw 😅😂
This was by far the”THE BEST” “how-to” cook a brisket video on the internet. My fellow brother from Missouri, you have got it going on!!!
My man!! Always showing love to the channel thank you brother. Glad you enjoyed the video. SHOWME STATE STAND UP!!! 🤠
Just in time, I just got done building my 500-gallon smoker. I wish I could show it to you. I smoked a brisket last weekend just like this, it tured out great. I also bought your brisket booster. It came in the mail today. I can't wait to try in on my next brisket cook. Keep up the awesome videos. Thanks.
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. I am about to watch this for the 4th time. You really cover a lot of ground.
Gotta say, been smoking briskets for a long time, and this video is great. Great personality and great video, keep up the good work.
Great barbecue lesson. I will definitely be using it on my next brisket
I really enjoyed your video. Here are 4 pro tips to make your amazing brisket even better:
1) don't forget to season your sides of your brisket.
2) I highly recommend brining the brisket in 64 oz of beef brotha and 1 cup the night before. this tip comes from Myron Mixon. i found it makes a thicker smoke ring
3) Take a bread pan and smoke your beef tallow. that way it's also infused with smoke flavor. it tastes way better
4) Use meat probes in the whole time so you always know what the temp is vs having to check every 20 minutes at the end
Thanks for watching and supporting!
1. I don’t season sides of briskets.
2. Brining is the most unorthodox thing I’ve ever heard lol. I would highly advise against doing that unless you’re making corned beef/pastrami. In short, you couldn’t pay me to brine a brisket. Brining & injecting is for competing. This is back yard craft bbq here my friend.
3. I don’t like smoking beef tallow. I’ve smoked many many gallons worth of beef tallow over the last 15 years and prefer a clarified unsmoked tallow. My briskets (as most do) get enough smoke flavor. I don’t need extra from smoked tallow. Also, I prefer the texture of unsmoked tallow.
4. Meat probes are for cheaters 😅. I don’t need a meat probe and if you’ve watched my other videos I am anti meat probes. I think learning how to bbq without probes makes the most complete Pitmaster.
I say all this with extreme respect. But given this is my channel in which I teach people, I wouldn’t feel comfortable subscribing to any of this advice or advocating for it, and wouldn’t pass it on to our other friends who enjoy the content.
But again, really appreciate the support brother. Hope to see you around 🙏🙌
Very comprehensive video, which is appreciated.
Wish I could like this more than once. Watched every second and learned a lot. Thank you
This is the best brisket video on RUclips and possibly the best bbq channel.
This absolutely has to be THE VERY BEST video on brisket and the love of crafting this cut of meat I've ever seen. Bravo brother! Thank you!
Wow, thank you brother!
What kind of Masterclass I just saw... thank you and greetings!
best bbq channel for sure
Thanks for taking the time to do this. Truly amazing.
Thanks for taking the time to watch brother, your support means a lot!
This is the kinda BBQ show we need. Long. Nerdy. and delicious. Getting into the weeds is imperative for a lazy Sunday...planning your next Q session. I'm ready for the next one.
YES YOU GET IT BRO!! Haha and to think this video started off being 4 hours long with over 6 hours of content. It was a miracle my wife was able to compress it down to a digestible hour 45, she’s a saint. Thanks for the support brother means a lot!
@@MeatNGreetBBQ yes sir. I’d watch 4 hours. lol. Bless your wife! Tell her thank you! Cheers!
Wow AWESOME video my man. I can't wait to try smoking my first brisket like this! Thank you!
Bro!!! Of the hook!! Thank you so much for taking your time. Been following for a while!!
I live in a small island , Puerto Rico, and I luv BBQ and low & slow smoking. My brisket game has amped up a lot. Grateful for your time once again
Appreciate the support bro!
This will be my holy grail of bbq. Thanks my dude 🍖 much love!
Wish i wouldve had this before my first brisket. These are all the things ive learned through failure
Excellent breakdown! I believe you are the first one to do it!! I'll be rewatching this multiple times
Right on thanks brother!
Best tutorial Brisket video out hand down, can someone give him a medal? 🥇
Mad props on this and every video you post. Love the way you explain every detail. Keep up the great content. I'm sharing with all my BBQ buds👍🏽
Bro can’t thank you enough for the support and the warm feedback. Means more than you know! Cheers brother 🍻
I've been watching all videos having anything to do with cooking briskets for an upcoming neighborhood 4th of July get together. My man, you hit it out of the park with this video!! It'll definitely be my go to video from now on. Thank you so much for this video especially but also for all of your other great videos, they are much appreciated!!
Gary always love hearing from you my friend. Thank you for supporting the channel. You’re going to crush your brisket cook this 4th!! Cheers brother 🇺🇸🍻
My man, this is hands down the BEST bbq channel on RUclips! All these other guys are clowns. You’re actually passionate about the craft, these other clowns are just in it for show and/or for the money. I’ve watched all your videos numerous times end to end and never felt like I had to fwd. I genuinely enjoy your content. Feels like I’m hanging out with you in your backyard. Keep doing what you’re doing. Big fan here from New Jersey! Cheers brother!
Bro really appreicate this big time means a lot!! HAHA I have to stay diplomatic on the topic but you know I'll never do anything for the clout or the $$. Only here to give as much info as I can, if the money comes because of the hardwork then so be it. But ya boy is all about the craft!! Thanks for all your support bro means a lot!
@@MeatNGreetBBQ Diplomacy is definitely the right way to go. But you know how I feel lol. You’re right, if the money comes, that’s a double bonus. And it will, it’ll come hard and fast at your rate. ✊🏽
@WhiteEvora400 I know exactly how you feel fam 😅. Appreciate that big time!! Cheers brother 🍻
Great information and well said. This will help me make a lot of my friends and family happy. God bless.
THE TIME HAS COME!!!! The Man himself has dropped the knowledge!!!! This is going to be awesome, THANK YOU!!!
Hope you enjoy brother thanks for all
The support
@@MeatNGreetBBQ Anytime, brother! You're the man, never forget!
Thank you, is not enough!!! I truly appreciate your time and dedication. Your instruction is 2nd to none! Thanks BIG FRIZZZ !!!!!
My brother thank YOU!! Wouldn’t be able to do it without your support!
loved this video!!! I have needed a more informative video on this. I have been smoking meat for about a year and a half. I have never done a brisket. I just did some pour mans brisket and I think I over cooked it. I wish I would have seen this two days ago!! keep the videos coming brother!! Your part of my fam at this point!! Cheers, drinking bud and Jack!! Smoking spirits not cigars!!
Just started watching and I'm so excited for this video! Congrats on the rub!!!
Thanks bro really appreciate it! Hope you enjoy 🙏🍻
@MeatNGreetBBQ no. Truly, thank you! I just bought my first offset smoker about a month ago. My first cook was a brisket and it was amazing, but I'm always looking to up my game. Your videos are awesome and explain things really well. And honestly, one of my favorite aspects is how humble you are about it all.
@@WhitetailVigilantesyou’re the man!! Really appreciate the support bro. Stoked you got bit by the bbq bug no going back now 😅😂
Frizz!! AMAZING AMAZING video. I'm so glad I caught this literally 1 day before I started a brisket smoke on a backyard vertical smoker in the middle of an Australian Winter.
I've watched a lot of BBQ content before but catching this one - everything finally made sense.
The principles you go over are indeed applicable to any smoker. I followed your recommendations and smashed out the most moist brisket with an amazing bark to share with my loved ones. Thanks again o/
My man appreciate this comment big time.
This was extremely good, very informative and engaging. I really enjoyed it.
Thank you! It is a good thing I watched your videos
Love the channel. Keep up the great work! Can't wait to cook my next brisket
Thanks family, appreciate the support!
Wow what video if you have any interest in smoking anything watch this video, Meat n Greet is the GOAT of all videos and education. Thankyou for sharing your knowledge
Let’s goooo!! Thanks bro
Thank you so much for these videos. I have learned so much, you are a really good teacher & Pit Master. 🙌🏽💕💕💕
Bro you did your thing with this video !! I appreciate the time and effort you put into this video. I truly learned a lot
Very thorough video, I wish I had this to watch when I first started cooking bbq!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I have literally watched every smoking video out there… Never, ever… have I seen someone put onions in the fire… You sir, have produced the finest brisket masterclass out there… Well thought out, well shot, well edited… Absolute perfection all around. I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again… Thanks for keeping it real and honest 🔥🔥💨💨🍻🥃
My man!!!! ALWAYS coming through with the support, can’t thank you enough boss! Super happy to hear you enjoyed the video. More to come for sure. Cheers friend 🍻🙏
@@MeatNGreetBBQ 🍻 Brother! Looking forward to more quality BBQ content! 🔥🔥👊🏻
Great video man. I’m taking a few tips from this video to try for sure. Your fire management video from a while back definitely helped me out when cooking multiple cuts of meat on our big offset smoker. Now I’m trying to learn my new cabinet smoker and sometimes it’s a head scratcher. Thanks for keeping it going.
Awesome video brother..would really appreciate a repeat but on the backyard offset 🙌🏾👊🏾
Loved every minute of this video, thanks for taking us through your cook. 🍻
Thank you so much for this and the brisket trimming video. I’m new to smoking meat, I’ve screwed up 2 other briskets (badly) using other videos before I found yours.
I just finished my 3rd attempt at a Brisket and it was incredible. My brisket looked night and day different from the last one after using your trimming video. I used my Komado Joe and Im so happy with how it turned out.
Thanks again, you’re the man.
YES BRO!!! That’s what I’m talking about 🍻
Amazing Video Thank you for sharing. You are a master of the Pit for sure. I’m dying to try this
Alright sir!!! I began watching your videos a couple weeks ago with your fire management video. Man... was phenomenal for my fire management to be more efficient. Always looking to learn and improve my game and you have given me new insight. Love the passion and enthusiasm. You have been a game changer for me. Thank you for your work!!!
Appreciate you big dog. Thanks for the support
Yes
Once again, excellent video sir!!!
God bless you.
Man you and your wife
Amen amen!! Thanks brother 🙏
Awesome looking Brisket from an awesome dude, this video rules. This video really made me want to go out and get a brisket despite just making one like a week ago.
YOU rule bro thanks for supporting the channel!
This man deserves more followers. I can tell you spend a lot of time making these videos and it shows. Keep it up. 👍🏽
Yes, the best, and the best spoken video I've seen. Best explained video out there.
Thank you brother really appreciate that!
@MeatNGreetBBQ , hey, I ordered your rub, but, have yet to use it. Can't wait though!
Have been watching your videos the last little bit (including this one). This might be the most underrated bbq page on RUclips (and I've watched most of them) and it's just getting started. Thanks for the exceptional attention to detail, continuing to learn as always!
Man can’t thank you enough for taking the time to support. Means a lot bro!
10:04 I season brisket in a shallow lipped pan to somewhat control seasoning the kitchen. You want the bark on the brisket not to hear the bark from your partner when you get done making a mess.
😂 that was classic haha!
Just in time for the 4th of July. Your trim and cook videos came in clutch. Keep it up big dawg
Right in time brother!! Thanks for the support big dog 🤙🍻
After years of bbq, I've found my new starter kit video guy. Thanks!!!!
My man!! Appreciate that big time 🙏
LMAO! I made my wife listen to the part about getting pepper all over the floor. she's always complaining about seasoning all over the floor. great video man
HAHA yes bro you are not alone my brother. Wives across America need to hear Tia! Normalize seasoning the ground beneath your feet 😂🤠
What an amazing informative video. Thank you. I use an UDS but so much is still applicable. Thank you!!
Thanks brother! Agree all teaching points are applicable 🙏
My Brisket game went up after this video! Thanks a lot!
Thanks what I’m talking about family!!
Much needed video for me my man. I definitely learned a ton. Most importantly I learned that a brisket could be done before 203 or 205 degrees. Ive tempted my briskets at 190 or 195 and they were very tender but I always thought that I had to take them higher and always overcooked them when I did. Hey thanks for the awesome video and knowledge!
Glad you enjoyed the video my friend. Man that concept took me some time to learn and really believe. Learning to trust feel has gone a long way. Thanks for the support bro! Cheers 🍻
I will be cooking a brisket this Friday. Looking forward to trying these techniques on my backyard smoker, a Brazos. Your videos have really helped kick my bbq up a notch or two!
Glad you enjoyed the video brother. Brazil is a freakin unit! Heck of a smoker there, enjoy 🍻
Just started watching your videos young man thank you so very much very informative on how to do a brisket have never tried one but now I’m am going to give it a try thank you so very much for the information
Really appreciate this comment and for
Your support. Means a lot!
This is the best video I've seen in a long time! Way to go brother! Thank you for putting this out.
Means a lot bro thank you!!
Just commenting to make sure you got your views and comment. Get paid!
Thank you for the great content. excited to smoke some meats.
Excellent detailed video man. I'm going to try my hand at the foil boat method this weekend.
Thanks brother! Heck yea love a good foil boat, enjoy this cook my friend. Cheers 🍻
This video was well worth the wait. Ever since you started your channel this was the one I knew was coming. BRAVO!!
Wow, thanks!
Great video and great channel. Thanks for spreading your knowledge. It really helps us newbies out.
Thanks for watching brother!
What a symphony. Been waiting a while for this video to drop and it was well worth it. Thanks for providing all this knowledge and putting it into a long format video.
Thanks for your patience brother! And thank you for supporting the channel 🙏
Amazing video! Thank you so much for this. I think sausage would be a great idea if you were to do another one in the future
Thanks for the support bro! I’m mulling over a sausage video in my head for sure. Might not be immediate but I’m sure we’ll crank it out at some point
Great job boss! The onions in the fire took me back to when I was a kid watching my uncle smoke and cook meat on the pit. Good stuff🤙🏾💯
Ain’t it a throwback memory with the onions on the smoker haha love that bro! Thanks for the support big dog 🙏🍻
Hey Mate,
Probably the best brisket master-class I've see on the Tube.
The building of the temp is totally new thinking for me!
Thank you so much.
Keep up the great content; learning heaps!
Cheers
HB
Sheeesh those are heavy words right there brother I’m truly thankful for your support. It means a lot to my wife and I! Cheers bro, hope to see you around in the comments my friend 🍻🤙

This is what obsession looks like. My goodness, I'm way too lazy. Excellent video.
HAHA! I am obsessed and by no means is it required to make great bbq 😅
