Jared, besides using the smoker to cook a brisket, is it possible that I could use a conventional oven to cook a partial piece of brisket at a time (meaning like a pound or two from a 10 pound bag)?
Seriously.. give this man a beer or something... I was tempted to skip ahead but the fact that he was so honest about it made me want to watch the whole thing!
First of all I want to say that I really enjoyed the video. I cook bbq competitions and about 3 years ago I made the switch to hot and fast and have done quite well with it (not to mention getting more sleep) just like low and slow, you need to practice and fine tune you’re hot and fast and I think you would’ve been even happier. Pour the smoke on thick initially and you can get a better smoke ring. Try one without wrapping to help with bark. Use an injection to help with juiciness. Leave it on a little longer (higher internal temp) to help render the fat in the point. Besides, a “chewier” point is preferable for burnt ends. Great video. Keep smoking, never stop.
I'm converted to the hot and fast...by accident. I wasn't paying attention and my smoker crept up in temp and cook it within 8 hours. From then on out, I've cooked my brisket around 300-325. If you're going to give this a shot, don't wrap based off of temp. Wrap based off of bark.
This is exactly how I smoked our Christmas brisket. It finished about 3 hours before dinner so I wrapped and dropped temp to 200 to hold and get dwell time on the rendering. The same-day smoke really helped with holiday family plans.
@@trevorspeer2490 the point Is one side of the brisket and the other Is called the flat. The point usually doesn’t have much flavor and people cut it after smoking into cubes and put additional sauce and flavorings and cook it more to become what we know as burnt ends and people typically like it either caramelized or crispy or honestly however you like it but thats what’s usually done.
@@trevorspeer2490 A brisket has TWO muscles, one called the flat, the long pc. that normally is used to cut slices from, and the point, which is the larger pc. that protrudes upward when looking at a whole or "packard" brisket. The flat is lean, it needs the fat cap, 1/4" on it, the point is marbled and does great by itself. If you look at the fat seams on a brisket, you can tell where they "separate" or cut into two distinct muscles. You can score this fat line, showing where you need to cut AFTER it's wholly smoked, or you can separate into two pcs. before smoking. I prefer to separate before smoking so I can trim it up a little better to allow the rub and smoke to inter the meat. Take a whole (packard) brisket, lay it flat, and somewhere near the middle, you will find a seam of fat, it will run all the way around the "point". This is the seam you need to follow in order to separate the two. Take your time, with a sharp knife and COLD brisket (fat trims better).Take your time, no rush, it will turn out wonderful. Once you have separated the two muscles, continue with your trimming, leaving a 1/4" fat cap on the flat, the long, wide pc., and trim up the point, to your desire but do NOT worry about inner fat, this pc. is marbled, so just hit the bigger pcs. on the outside. The cooking temps you chose is up to you, I prefer low and slow, around 230, and once the color on the FLAT is where you want it, and the "bark"(your rub) is set, tap it with your finger and if it's fairly hard, you're good. Wrap it in butchers paper. Continue the cook until you hit around 195 then check the "feel" of the flat, if it feels like pushing into cold yogurt, your good. Pull it off the grill, wrap in towels and either place a cooler or the oven and let it rest for about an hour, two would be better. The point, do the same as with the flat, and when the temp. hits around that 195 mark, check for "feel", just like the flat. Pull it when the feel is right and let it rest for about an hour. After an hour, cut it into 1" squares, or a mouth full per bite, place in an aluminum pan, I like to sprinkle more rub on these cubes, just to coat, turning them over to get all sides. Next, mix your favorite BBQ sauce with a little beef broth, or the drippings from your wrapped flat, and add to the pan, toss each bite to coat all sides. DO NOT make it runny, keep it fairly tight, for best results. Place back on the smoker, for about 30 minutes or until the sauce "tightens" or gets really sticky. Pull, rest for about 10 minutes, and watch them disappear.
Ha ha ha , that bark didn't stay on the fast brisket because it was on the bottom of the cooler being drenched by the brisket on the top. I've done hundreds of briskets at 4 and half hours and they have come out great. Depends on the cook and who your cooking for , competition or a huge family reunion.
Awesome video man. The hosting and narration is great. Slow and low will always be the ideal way. I find that for a 5 hour cook, you can make the best of it with thinner deli style slices. That’s typically what we do to get around any chewiness
Cam is KILLIN' that poor brisket!!! It didn't stand a chance. Great video- so comprehensive. Will try (with a smaller one- 20+ pounds is way too much!) Thanks for your hard work!
Great video, thanks. I'm fairly new to proper grilling but feel I could tackle a brisket after watching this video. And Cam's cameo put it over the top. Just subscribed!
Kid doesn’t give a shit which one was cooked how. Hes just going to work on that meat like he hasn’t eaten in two weeks. You get brutal honesty from kids I love it. Both good apparently. Love it.

Easily the best video on brisket that I've watched. I have smoked a few but never been that confident, I think this video has given me a better understanding , so I'm now looking forward to smoking one tomorrow!
Whole new meaning to low and slow and hot and fast to me. Never heard of anyone hot smoking at 400 and rarely see anyone go below 225. Anyway like everyone else has said I loved that you time stamped and watched it all anyway, great mind trick 👍🏾.

@@BBQandBottles OH no I understand it, I appreciate it a lot because of that actually, most people are in it just to make money (the 10 minute and 1 second videos, etc) you are passionate, and it shows! Thanks for the videos!
First time I saw a video from this guy, and I thought it was just another video about meat, BUT, the amount of knowledge and important information he shares here is simply staggering! I'm definitely a subscriber now!
Yep, after this experiment I really understand just how important going low and slow is on BBQ. Especially for these larger cuts that have a ton of intermuscular tissue that needs to breakdown over the course of a long cook.
@@BBQandBottles As an Asian who grew up with braised and boiled briskets, we always slow cooked the chewy parts of briskets (such as interim) for hours. So I totally agreed with you that the low and slow is the way to go for optimal results. Happy cooking~
Attempting my first "hot and fast" brisket today for the superbowl. Ran across your video. Really like how you break things down, and maneuver through each step. Subscribed. Can't wait to watch more of your stuff
I worked at a big BBQ joint in central Texas for five years. Our method was hot and fast. You took fast to a whole new level. More like hot and warp speed. My 2cents (worth less than that) you wrapped it too early and didn’t let it finish long enough before you rested it.
I have watched too many brisket videos. That said, this production is perhaps the most comprehensive and, at the same time, concise exposition of the 2 primary methods. Your including time-jumps for the impatient was a most generous addition as less watch-time hurts your video's promotion by RUclips. Kudos, kudos, kudos!
Thanks for the kind words. On the time jumps, we're here to try and provide value to our viewers, not game the algorithm. Thanks again for the kind words and watching.
You can actually see the difference in the two brisket just how cam is eating. Hot and fast took him a bit more effort to get a bit rather than the low and slow. Good addition to the taste test honestly. Both good cooks. I wonder if you can do a 6hr smoke while at the river and it be the best of both worlds.. good content!!
I smoked 3 brisket with pecan wood. It took about 22 to 25 hours. I let my briskets cook uncovered for 6 hours then wrap them till there cooked. I always add a cup of water to my wrap briskets then feed the pit all day long. I like to keep the temperature between 220 to 325 depending on if it’s cooked or not. I’m glad you did a comparison so I won’t have to get the idea to cook it fast. Good job!
Watch a lot of videos of brisket bbqs everyday when I eat. Bout my favorite here. Detailed, you don’t talk country as shit like EVERYONE else, and detailed about it all. Looked good.
I really like the video that's great that was definitely hot and fast maybe sometime in the near future you could try a medium hot and fast somewhere around the 350 range to let the bark said a little bit more and help with the rendering and breaking down of the tissue. Great video that was very cool
That’s kinda how I do it, I go around 325-350 for around 3-4 hours and then wrap it and let it go until I hit 205 or it’s super probe tender. Usually it takes around 6-8 hours for a 16lb-18lb brisket and they turn out just like his low and slow brisket.
@@Fazman81 Same, i do 325, take the trimmings and render them into a beef tallow and spread it on the butcher paper when i wrap it at the stall. Nothing wasted and far juicier brisket. Takes about 6-8 hours. Comes out perfect.
@@chrischris5510 I've modified my method since I posted this. I start my briskets around 250 and spritz every hour until I get a real nice bark. Then I wrap and pour in a little beef broth with rub. I up the temp to 300-325 and my briskets are still done in around 7-8 hours, 9 on the really big ones. I really like the result using this method. I've done probably 25-30 briskets this way and its my go to method now.
@@Fazman81 I do mine the same way great method in a similar but use apple juice and rub I smoke at 180° till I hit 160° internal then wrap and continue to to finish my time on average is bout 15 hour. Large ones take longer up to 19 hour.
just the fact that he didnt tell sub and like a thousand times but he also made timestumps so that if someone wanted to see a single part of the process earned my sub and like
Damn I always rubbed the ‘rub’ makes total sense to pat it. Top tip ref the butchers paper, I hate it when the bark softens as I have always used foil. I cook over wood.
@@kimberlyalesley1772 as often as possible over the summer, my neighbours lol. 'there he goes. lighting that 'kin bbq again.' 3 or 4 times a week on average i reckon.
@@Outdoorshuntingshooting That's hilarious how your neighbors be thinking about you when ever you light that wood or coal to grill ? Do you only grill over the summer ?
Great job including your son. Looks like his final decision was for the low and slow. Thanks for letting him participate Dad. Great video. Thanks for sharing!
my wife bought a smoker last year, tried smoking a brisket but could not really get that dark color outside and super juicy inside. Last brisket i smoked was really bad it was so bad it was depressing looking at it.
@@jacobsmessaert6182 ok for seasoning just plain salt and black pepper i let it sit for close to an hr. Then 250 for 8 hrs (15 lbs) i sprayed apple cider vinegar every 1 hr. Then wrapped it foil another 4 hrs. (Fat was on top). I think 8 hrs is too long?
@@lanzonests @lanzo how much salt and pepper did you use? Also try cooking fat side down you'll cook for 6 hours on 250-275 then wrap (butcher paper) for 4 hours until tender and I've always had tender juicy renders but I used meat church rubs with no binders. I will be trying salt and pepper with apple cider for the first time so I plan on approaching it the same way but spraying the brisket every hour for the first 6 hours before wrapping. How exactly did your last try come out? Not tender? Dry? Etc.
@@jjsalazar96 my first try was ok but lack of dark color, it was juicy and tender inside, i think 8 hrs was too long. I will try your 6 hrs and will use butcher paper for wrapping. lol i might post it if it comes out good! Thanks.
It takes practice man, Temps are also different on the type of smoker somewhat, placement, the type of wood, you'll get it down. Took me about 3 briskets to get a decent one on an offset smoker, using oak and pecan wood.
The production quality is really good, the contents idea is great. Not sure if it was intentional or not but even the ad placement doesn't even interrupt the flow
Hey bbq and bottles love ur vids I was wondering? Can you do a video where you can make the ABSOLUTE best way to cook a prime ribeye because I am planning on making one thx
That young man has a good appetite. He wasn't worried about all that talking, he just wanted to eat some brisket. No nonsense, that's what I'm talking about!
The kid was pointing at the fat on the edge of his piece of brisket. I dunno what you're on about. the kids not an idiot, he knows the difference between "fatty" and a "thick" piece.
You should not have wrapped your hot and fast brisket. There was no point in doing so. You should always wrap your brisket after your bark is set and passes the finger test, no base it on temperature. Your bark didn't set and wrapping it just resulted in a muddy mess at the end with no bark. Had you kept it on, it would of formed a nice bark and still been plenty juicy. I do my brisket and pork hot and fast and rarely wrap. If you want to retain some juice, instead of putting it in a wrap, put it in a long sheet pan uncovered back in the smoker. It will keep juices but also build bark on top. Great job nonetheless. I'd still eat the heck out of both
@@ZmannR2 Anything hot and fast will be less moist than going low and slow but it can still be done well. There is no stall going hot and fast. You just need to stay on top of it, spray it every now and then, pull it at the right time and rest the heck out of it. In any case, 400 is too high for me. I go 325-350 and consider that plenty hot and fast. Wrapping is not only used to retain moisture, it's used to blow past the stall quicker and break down collagen. Even in a wrap, the meat will push the juices out and sit in the foil, in which case your only braising the meat on the bottom that's sitting in juice. The entire brisket doesn't braise from being wrapped. It just accelerates cook time. If your going hot and fast with no stall, the wrapping won't do much other than soften your bark. The same could happen by putting it in a pan with a little warm broth and finish it either uncovered or loosely tented. If you loosely tent the pan in foil, you won't destroy the bark as much and you'll catch the juices in the pan too. There are many ways to cook a brisket. It's also worth noting that the quality and marbling plays a massive role. If the meat is cheap with little fat, going hot and fast is not smart no matter what the method.
@@stav55 ya I would never do hot n fast regardless. My personal preference is dry brined for 8 hrs, then pepper and garlic powder. Cherry/hickory mix in a ceramic grill at 250 until a bit into the stall, around 185 internal. Then butcher paper wrap until 203 IN THE POINT, not the flat. Rest minimum of 2 hrs. Separate point and flat and scrap away the nasty fat deivider between the two, slice n serve without sauce.
Yes sir!!! You are definitely a pit master. I do a 4hr brisket at about 600° but the only difference is I use a ball shape propane tank. I enjoyed your commentary and video. Keep em cooking.
Late to the party...but you earned my sub based on providing a timeline and not asking me to sub. You're absolutely right on the cooler. I have a stick burner so I have to babysit yet I still need sleep. I'll put a 14lb brisket on at 2pm on a Saturday and I'll stay up with it until it's done anywhere between 4a-6a depending on how well I managed the fire. When I get around the 180 mark I'll start heating up water on my kettle in a water pan to pour into the cooler. This pre-warms the cooler. I wrap the butcher paper wrapped brisket in plastic wrap (to keep as much juice in as possible) then wrap in foil, then towels, and dump the water out of the cooler and place the brisket in. I put a probe in it and set an alarm to go off once it gets down to 150 degrees for slicing but this will typically take 6-7 hours which gives me plenty of time to sleep. Then I wake up and slice brisket for lunch on Sunday.
Great video, thanks form the comparison. The juice in the bottom of the cooler is why our roll of butchers paper is gathering dust and we are almost out of aluminum foil.
I like watching the whole process but I really appreciate that you put Time stamps for those who just need the info. That got me to sub. This is my first video to watch of yours. Like the bid Vid

Jared, besides using the smoker to cook a brisket, is it possible that I could use a conventional oven to cook a partial piece of brisket at a time (meaning like a pound or two from a 10 pound bag)?
Yep, you can cook a brisket in the oven and just use liquid smoke but it will obviously taste differently.
What difference does the brisket taste like when it’s cooked in the conventional oven? Maybe if I turn the dial and use the Broil function?
The biggest difference will be that you don’t get a Smokey flavor to the brisket.

14:25-slicing and comparison
the fact you had the table of contents at the start shows you guys really care. subbed and liked, thank you!
You can actually see the difference in the two brisket just how cam is eating.
Hot and fast took him a bit more effort to get a bit rather than the low and slow. Good addition to the taste test honestly.
Both good cooks. I wonder if you can do a 6hr smoke while at the river and it be the best of both worlds.. good content!!
I smoked 3 brisket with pecan wood. It took about 22 to 25 hours. I let my briskets cook uncovered for 6 hours then wrap them till there cooked. I always add a cup of water to my wrap briskets then feed the pit all day long. I like to keep the temperature between 220 to 325 depending on if it’s cooked or not. I’m glad you did a comparison so I won’t have to get the idea to cook it fast. Good job!
You know food is going to be amazing when you see nitrile gloves and watch on the left hand lol.
Great video cheers
Watch a lot of videos of brisket bbqs everyday when I eat. Bout my favorite here. Detailed, you don’t talk country as shit like EVERYONE else, and detailed about it all. Looked good.
I really like the video that's great that was definitely hot and fast maybe sometime in the near future you could try a medium hot and fast somewhere around the 350 range to let the bark said a little bit more and help with the rendering and breaking down of the tissue.
Great video that was very cool
Thanks guys. Good idea on the video
That’s kinda how I do it, I go around 325-350 for around 3-4 hours and then wrap it and let it go until I hit 205 or it’s super probe tender. Usually it takes around 6-8 hours for a 16lb-18lb brisket and they turn out just like his low and slow brisket.
@@Fazman81 Same, i do 325, take the trimmings and render them into a beef tallow and spread it on the butcher paper when i wrap it at the stall. Nothing wasted and far juicier brisket. Takes about 6-8 hours. Comes out perfect.
@@chrischris5510 I've modified my method since I posted this. I start my briskets around 250 and spritz every hour until I get a real nice bark. Then I wrap and pour in a little beef broth with rub. I up the temp to 300-325 and my briskets are still done in around 7-8 hours, 9 on the really big ones. I really like the result using this method. I've done probably 25-30 briskets this way and its my go to method now.
@@Fazman81 I do mine the same way great method in a
similar but use apple juice and rub I smoke at 180° till I hit 160° internal then wrap and continue to to finish my time on average is bout 15 hour. Large ones take longer up to 19 hour.
Thank you so much for the time stamp! Rarely do I see that on videos. This caused me to subscribed!
QUICK!!! Somebody teach that kid that brisket fat is a GREAT THING!!!!!
ya or atleast some fat on the flat side
QUICK! SOMEBODY TEACH CARL FORD THAT NO ONE CARES!
just the fact that he didnt tell sub and like a thousand times but he also made timestumps so that if someone wanted to see a single part of the process earned my sub and like
"Yeah i agwy with the wubewy textuw"
-Cam
Good experiment! Thanks! And what a pleasure to see a little kid eat the bisket with such enthusiasm!!
Damn I always rubbed the ‘rub’ makes total sense to pat it. Top tip ref the butchers paper, I hate it when the bark softens as I have always used foil. I cook over wood.
How often do you grill over wood ??
A couple of times a month.
@@kimberlyalesley1772 as often as possible over the summer, my neighbours lol. 'there he goes. lighting that 'kin bbq again.' 3 or 4 times a week on average i reckon.
@@Outdoorshuntingshooting That's hilarious how your neighbors be thinking about you when ever you light that wood or coal to grill ? Do you only grill over the summer ?
Great job including your son. Looks like his final decision was for the low and slow. Thanks for letting him participate Dad. Great video. Thanks for sharing!
Cam is his nephew, not his son. 18:56
my wife bought a smoker last year, tried smoking a brisket but could not really get that dark color outside and super juicy inside. Last brisket i smoked was really bad it was so bad it was depressing looking at it.
tell us what you're doing. Prep, seasoning, cook method and time. We'll try to help.
@@jacobsmessaert6182 ok for seasoning just plain salt and black pepper i let it sit for close to an hr. Then 250 for 8 hrs (15 lbs) i sprayed apple cider vinegar every 1 hr. Then wrapped it foil another 4 hrs. (Fat was on top). I think 8 hrs is too long?
@@lanzonests @lanzo how much salt and pepper did you use? Also try cooking fat side down you'll cook for 6 hours on 250-275 then wrap (butcher paper) for 4 hours until tender and I've always had tender juicy renders but I used meat church rubs with no binders. I will be trying salt and pepper with apple cider for the first time so I plan on approaching it the same way but spraying the brisket every hour for the first 6 hours before wrapping. How exactly did your last try come out? Not tender? Dry? Etc.
@@jjsalazar96 my first try was ok but lack of dark color, it was juicy and tender inside, i think 8 hrs was too long. I will try your 6 hrs and will use butcher paper for wrapping. lol i might post it if it comes out good! Thanks.
It takes practice man, Temps are also different on the type of smoker somewhat, placement, the type of wood, you'll get it down. Took me about 3 briskets to get a decent one on an offset smoker, using oak and pecan wood.
The production quality is really good, the contents idea is great. Not sure if it was intentional or not but even the ad placement doesn't even interrupt the flow
so that "oxidation" you called its actually from scalding water they use
Thank you. I love eating brisket but only now have I learned how to cook it. Low and slow, baby!!
How often do you cook your own brisket since you learnt to cook it by yourself?
Hey bbq and bottles love ur vids I was wondering? Can you do a video where you can make the ABSOLUTE best way to cook a prime ribeye because I am planning on making one thx
I have been looking for a good way to cook a Brisket....I found it!
Thanks so much for posting.
i dont want to watch the whole video,but since u show me that timestamp,im gonna be a rebel and watch the whole video.
Pretty cool video, new to smoking and it’s great to see experienced people showing the differences in cooking big things like a brisket.
22:07 that boy is so cute!!! ❤️ And enjoying his brisket
Your time stamps are revolutionary! Thank you!
its 3am, and im staring, and i chose to watch this, why’d i do this to myself😂 im starvinggg someone bring me sum brisket 😫
Funny😂
That young man has a good appetite. He wasn't worried about all that talking, he just wanted to eat some brisket. No nonsense, that's what I'm talking about!
Top demais! Aqui no Brasil também somos mestres em fazer churrasco
carente
Só nunca teremos um boi como esse
Tá osso o preço da carne
@@maadrianoaraujo nosso são melhores ainda, vai por mim!!
Eso no es churrasco...
Perfect video for just making brisket for the first time. Can’t wait. Awesome guys
ah mustard! my favorite neutral flavor..
It is truly neutral when slow cooking. I use it on babybacks and you cannot tell it on after the cook
I dont know man, ur face and ur voice actually gives me peace of mind, it just makes me happy idk why. Keep it up mate, ure good at this stuff
Appreciate the support 👍👍
Anyone ever tell you you kinda have a Will Ferrel vibe in your face?
I subscribed simply for the index at 0:44 That's awesome, thanks!
Drink every time he says brisket.
I can’t walk..

Surprisingly good to see this comparison! I never thought that fast and hot was an option. It is! Thank you.
20:53 the kid was saying it’s thick, not fat.
Yeah that hot and fast slice was a bit thicker than the low and slow. Maybe a conspiracy 🤷🏼♂️
The kid was pointing at the fat on the edge of his piece of brisket. I dunno what you're on about.
the kids not an idiot, he knows the difference between "fatty" and a "thick" piece.
I subscribed and watched the whole video just because of the time stamps. You’re the real mvp
You should not have wrapped your hot and fast brisket. There was no point in doing so. You should always wrap your brisket after your bark is set and passes the finger test, no base it on temperature. Your bark didn't set and wrapping it just resulted in a muddy mess at the end with no bark. Had you kept it on, it would of formed a nice bark and still been plenty juicy. I do my brisket and pork hot and fast and rarely wrap. If you want to retain some juice, instead of putting it in a wrap, put it in a long sheet pan uncovered back in the smoker. It will keep juices but also build bark on top. Great job nonetheless. I'd still eat the heck out of both
Also leaving it in the chiller for two hours with the fast one on bottoms in juices probably didn’t help
Good call on this... your suggestion is reminiscent of the “boat” technique with foil, which protects the bark.
Without the wrap, at 400 degrees it would dry the piss outta it
@@ZmannR2 Anything hot and fast will be less moist than going low and slow but it can still be done well. There is no stall going hot and fast. You just need to stay on top of it, spray it every now and then, pull it at the right time and rest the heck out of it. In any case, 400 is too high for me. I go 325-350 and consider that plenty hot and fast. Wrapping is not only used to retain moisture, it's used to blow past the stall quicker and break down collagen. Even in a wrap, the meat will push the juices out and sit in the foil, in which case your only braising the meat on the bottom that's sitting in juice. The entire brisket doesn't braise from being wrapped. It just accelerates cook time. If your going hot and fast with no stall, the wrapping won't do much other than soften your bark. The same could happen by putting it in a pan with a little warm broth and finish it either uncovered or loosely tented. If you loosely tent the pan in foil, you won't destroy the bark as much and you'll catch the juices in the pan too. There are many ways to cook a brisket. It's also worth noting that the quality and marbling plays a massive role. If the meat is cheap with little fat, going hot and fast is not smart no matter what the method.
@@stav55 ya I would never do hot n fast regardless. My personal preference is dry brined for 8 hrs, then pepper and garlic powder. Cherry/hickory mix in a ceramic grill at 250 until a bit into the stall, around 185 internal. Then butcher paper wrap until 203 IN THE POINT, not the flat. Rest minimum of 2 hrs. Separate point and flat and scrap away the nasty fat deivider between the two, slice n serve without sauce.
Yes sir!!! You are definitely a pit master. I do a 4hr brisket at about 600° but the only difference is I use a ball shape propane tank. I enjoyed your commentary and video.
Keep em cooking.
It's so cute..... to see that little guy eat those small pieces of meat ....
AYO??
I was given a beef brisket and didn't know the first thing of how to cook it .. Thank you so much ... My family enjoyed the meal .. Bless you.
Oh, that’s great Claudette. I’m glad you got to share it with the family. Best way to experience BBQ.
I have three ( RACKS OF LAMB ) can you help me with that meal ?
Here ya go ruclips.net/video/2nTOGD15rK4/видео.html
who else high asf dying rn watching this video
aye man
Me
Who else coming to RUclips comments seeking attention?
Late to the party...but you earned my sub based on providing a timeline and not asking me to sub. You're absolutely right on the cooler. I have a stick burner so I have to babysit yet I still need sleep. I'll put a 14lb brisket on at 2pm on a Saturday and I'll stay up with it until it's done anywhere between 4a-6a depending on how well I managed the fire. When I get around the 180 mark I'll start heating up water on my kettle in a water pan to pour into the cooler. This pre-warms the cooler. I wrap the butcher paper wrapped brisket in plastic wrap (to keep as much juice in as possible) then wrap in foil, then towels, and dump the water out of the cooler and place the brisket in. I put a probe in it and set an alarm to go off once it gets down to 150 degrees for slicing but this will typically take 6-7 hours which gives me plenty of time to sleep. Then I wake up and slice brisket for lunch on Sunday.
I don't care about lengths 😂 I watched a video once then when it was over I realized it was 45 minutes 🙄
Great video, thanks form the comparison. The juice in the bottom of the cooler is why our roll of butchers paper is gathering dust and we are almost out of aluminum foil.
Back before people discovered how to cook brisket. Butchers would give that brisket away for free.
I need a time machine
😮😮
My grampaw before he passed said the butchers threw out chiken wings because they had no takers...
@skankhunt42 shit really changed lmfao
I love this timeline thing. I skipped to the result then go back to the preparation. U earned a sub!
Thanks Kam and welcome to the channel
Is it just me or does his voice sound like Sean from hot ones?
I can’t believe how many people have made this comment in our videos. I guess it’s true?
Really good brisket video. Hot and fast never did turn out as good as low and slow. You did a great job!
Me trying to go vegetarian for a bit
RUclips: heres some brisket recommendations
I like watching the whole process but I really appreciate that you put Time stamps for those who just need the info. That got me to sub. This is my first video to watch of yours. Like the bid
