This is uncanny…I went to my butchers today and bought a black onyx brisket that he very kindly separated into the point and flat as I wanted to try and cook burnt ends, but still have the flat in case the burnt ends didn’t work out very well! Came home, saw the notification from you guys and couldn’t believe it that you were cooking brisket flat! Roughly what was your tot@l cook time, I will be doing mine in an offset with a 4kg Boston butt next to it for a family catch up (post Covid lockdown) on Saturday.

I got lil brisket. I thought it was a bit of point but on closer inspection when I unwrap it I wont be surprised to find it to be a flat that is half folded over to create the illusion of a bit of point. Cleaned up the council pile weber and it's had 1 or 2 cooks before lol. It cleaned up like a brand spanker. You reckon I aint cheering about that. I'll do a few kg's of wings on it tonight to reseason it and do the brisket tomorrow. Cheers for the inspiration.

@@dank9288639 I really think it comes down to meat quality. It doesn't have to be premium/wagyu but it needs some decent marbling. And from there... injecting maybe (although I don't notice much difference), wrapping (with tallow helps imo), and a longer rest than you think. And some pieces of meat are just better than others... so there's always variables but start with a decent brisket I reckon

Love your channel! Please help though! I have been smoking on my Weber for about a month now and it’s great except one thing. After I lift the lid to spray my ribs, brisket etc the temp jumps like crazy after I close my lid. What can I do

That's probably the best looking flat I've seen cooked on a Weber. I have a beat up $50 2nd hander (definitely black, not red!!) and it's awesome for hot and fast but I'm scared to try a low and slow because I'm not sure she seals really well, therefore resort to my Traeger. I need the courage to do it on the Weber (and time!!)

But not at high altitude where water boils at a lower temperature. I live at 5,000ft altitude. My target temp for some of the BBQ meats is 195°f. And I cook at a lower temperature. My area is also dry and arid, so I make sure to have a water pan in the Weber. 24 hour dry brine and injections help also.

I'm wondering what size weber Kettle were you using. Was it a 22" or 26"? I'm looking at getting one soon. Thanks

Iv tryed following this but had a bit of a stall at 89C and gave up and pulled it out and it was tough! Should I have tryed heating it up to hit that 91C as the cooking temp was around 110C, maybe I need to be at 130C?

@LownSlowBasics

89c is much too underdone, exactly why it was tough. Always push through the stall, briskets require lots of patience. Cooking temp at least 120c. Cook until at least 93c and focus on probe tenderness.

@selimberntsen7868

2 жыл бұрын

This means that the internal temp of the meat bairly rises for a long period of time (up to several hours). You van speed up this process by wrapping your meat or increasing the temp in your kettle.

@wchops7578

2 жыл бұрын

It’s generally when your meat starts expelling water at a high enough rate to cool the meat down enough to keep the internal temp from moving much. Basically, it’s sweating. Great time to focus on fat render and bark formation.

How come the juice doesn’t pour out when it’s cut like in other bbq videos?
