Oh, thanks... its nice during the summer. Looking forward to spring already...

You mentioned Aaron Franklin. One thing that many people don't know is that he spreads Wagu beef tallow on his briskets before seasoning to add lots of moisture. There are a few videos out there proving the point. I got some and tried it. All I can say is it is a game changer!

Great video. I did a 15lb packer from Costco this spring on my RT-700, did take a while for sure. I always struggle with a planned dinner time and when to put the brisket or shoulders on due to the varying cook times. Better to err on the side of early, a good cooler can carry them for hours. Now i am hungry for brisket!

I used to struggle with that as well, I plan my cook with a 3 hour rest figured in. If it normally takes 12 hours to s one your 12 lb brisket, just plan for 15hrs. It’s always has worked for me. I do use a FireBoard Wi-Fi thermo and make notes for each cook within the app, so I can gauge the cook time

that's a nice looking brisket.....great videos - I just got the rectec 700 as a fathers day gift from my wife.....I've already tried a brisket which was..... ok....but just made some notes after to video I will have to employ on my next brisket cook...so thank you - enjoy!

Just learned that trick recently from Jeremy Yoder on Mad Scientist BBQ. I've been using one of the worst pellets on the market (Traeger). He made a video about it and I never realized that there really are only two good brands on the market...Cookin' Pellets and Lumber Jack.

I have done other cuts (such as a turkey breast) on a rack over a pan with chicken stock and they have turned out great. The extra moisture really helps. I will need to try your method with a brisket. Also, the big bonus is that I don’t have to clean the grill grates afterwards, nor do I have to replace the foil that covers the drip tray!

Nice video I like how you put that broil pan under it to keep the direct heat off of it. I'm looking at pellet grills I usually do the offset smoker you said it's pretty subtle smoke Flavor. is the smoke flavor good and subtle Is it a burnt smoke flavor or what's your opinion on that? Is ash a factor Are you done with pallet smokers

@Searedandsmoked

2 жыл бұрын

Thanks Ray. The flavor is really good, just more subtle for sure. I found I liked it for the longer smokes that allow a little more flavor to develop. The brisket, beef ribs, pork ribs, and pork butt all came out really nice. It develops good bark over time too. I was not a huge fan of chicken on it... just not the flavor I really wanted. I cannot say I am done with pellet smokers... I might get a smaller one at some point, for the convenience. But... I do enjoy the charcoal smokers more... hard to beat them.

Hats off to you sir. #1 love the grill. I have that grill as well... #2 love the cabinet you inserted the grill into. Is that a custom job or is that purchased as is? beautiful back yard. Currently smoking a brisket on the 700. Enjoyed watching the video. Question for the first cut on the flat. I always heard that you cut against the grain on skinny part? Other than that.... loved the video.

Hi, that looked like a nice brisket! 17 hours, man that was a long cook! I remember watching Cooking with Ry and he did a 17lb brisket on his 24" Camp Chef Woodwind in 8 hours. So I was a little surprised that yours took that long. Great looking brisket though, bet it tasted as good as it looked!

Nice, neighbor state directly west. Surprised you didn’t cook down the trimmed fat and baste it before you wrapped. 20 hrs! Damn, that’s the reason I haven’t done brisket in a long time. Also, Costco prime briskets have doubled in the past few weeks. Used to be a bargain. Still using my Smokefire for a lot off cooks and loving it.

yeah... brisket prices are getting up there even at Costco. I think this one was $5.50 /lb vs 3.50 or so several months a go. I actually have some tallow in the pantry, but decided to go with out it. I know tallow is the big buzz on youtube right at the moment, but this brisket did stay pretty juicy with out it. I think tallow would be great for the leaner cuts out there... tri-tip, big chuck roasts, etc. Thanks for the comments.

Nice looking brisket! I’ve made some fine brisket on my RecTec 680. That was a long stall for sure, but sometimes cooking below 250 that can happen. But as Harry Soo says… toss away your temp probe and your clock. He uses his temp probe mainly to se see how easily it goes in.

I trim my briskets to 1/4 inch or less and even remove fat between the point and flat. White unrendered fat isn`t appealing and usually gets trimmed away with the bark and rub with it. Reduces cook time as well. Don`t know why so many people trim so little fat before smoking. I just did one 2 days ago this way and barely had to trim any off slices when eating.

@Searedandsmoked

I generally prefer less fat cap as well as you can see.... the point is always plenty fatty enough and I have not found leaving a cap on the flat really makes it more tender and juicy. Usually just depends how marbled the actual meat is. Thanks for watching...
