    Why the hell can't everybody just do a nice casual and thorough video like Mr. Neil here? Excellent. BTW, I have a helpful hint to all you Traeger lovers, but maybe you already know, I use my small shop vacuum to clean out the pellet heat chamber in the bottom as well as the whole inside to get the fine ash powder out before each use. I never vacuum it out after use as you might suck up a live charcoal into the vacuum.
    Aloha, Paul

    i have a traeger and smoked 5 briskets on it this summer so far and i love it. however, it's clear to me that i really need something bigger so i am going to get a YS640s and sell my traeger. Yoder's can do direct heat grilling so it offers the best of both worlds and they're built like a tank.

    Spritz!! Obvs in a clean, dedicated, spray bottle! I didn't think it would make such a difference, as I'm typically a mopper.. but spraying makes a huge difference in the smoke ring and juicyness... I've converted! Spritz!!

      enjoy ! and don't be discouraged if the first one isn't the best. my first couple briskets came out tough. and even after making this video I've made briskets that have the texture of rubber. i say def cook to at least 200 (if not 204). when I've pulled it off earlier at 185 the meat was still tough.

    @doplinger1 4 года назад +1

    I usually start and continue at 225 degrees, which is low compared to a lot that I've seen, which may be why it took yours so long to cook. Mine 10-12 pounders usually take about 12 hours, and I don't like it to get over 200, I usually pull it at around 195 actually and they turn out perfect. Not a fan of the Montreal because of all the pepper, but it didn't look like you put too much on it. I like some Lawrys seasoning and garlic powder. Looks like it turned out great!

  • @jsblusmokebbq4343
    @jsblusmokebbq4343 Год назад

    Take advantage of the startup smoke. Start it with the brisket on a cold grill while it starts. Pellet grills are so efficient in burning, get all you can

  • @irwinmiranda8929
    @irwinmiranda8929 4 года назад

    What did you use for the mop sauce I’m trying to figure what the green can is that you used so total cook time was 185 for 4 hours then 10 hours at 225

    • @themanofNeil
      @themanofNeil  4 года назад +1

      that green can was a leftover can of ginger ale just because it was open in the fridge, but I think any sugary carbonated liquid is fine. My preference is to use beer. Yes for this specific brisket it cooked for 14 hours.

    • @themanofNeil
      @themanofNeil  3 года назад +1

      Man jokbaby, I don't know. There was a comment below about never wrapping it and I didn't wrap my most recent brisket for superbowl. I honestly couldn't tell much of a difference. I guess I'd say, it's not a bad idea to wrap after a few hours. Then try it the other way on your next brisket !

  • @noahmyler8807

    I have a campchef pellet smoker for years and and what I did is remove the protective grill in the hopper where the pallets go makes it easier to clean the dust from pallets that can jam the auger Second thing I do is sift through The dust from pallets with Pasta calendar to keep things working properly without jamming up just an advice
