A brisket cooks 12 - 24 hours. It’s usually pulled off the smoker at 195-198°F so all bacteria are long dead. It’s cooked “low and slow” so it is incredibly tender if done right.

I will pack my brisket in kosher salt and slow cook in the oven for 12 hours then smoke it for another 3-4 hrs, juicy and delicious is all I can say.

Maybe one of the reasons why BBQ has been and is such a thing in the states is due to our abundance of hardwood varieties great for smoking. Oak, Cherry, Pecan, Walnut, Apple, Mesquite etc. A big country with a lot of forests equals lots of firewood.

That's a great observation.

In Texas, we have access to all the good BBQ, but pro tip, when you come to visit here or Louisiana, make sure you get the seasonings, ship the meats to yourself if you can, get at least dry ingredients you can use, because some things just will never taste the same without them. When we visit New Orleans, we bring a whole cooler to bring back gumbos, and stocks, and sauces, and seasonings and since most people are super friendly, we will ask, how do you make this or that, or what is their best tip for making a good xyz. A lot of people love to talk about their cooking or their families best recipes and you get the best advice along with places to go that aren't overly priced touristy trap places.

Good job, Leah! Also, easiest way to think about the diff between grilling and bbq, is that grilling is fast like 3-10m, while bbq is lower temps for much longer, often hours.

Barbecue is low and slow while grilling is hot and fast. So if you have the heat up high, you’re grilling and not barbecuing. One of the things that make barbecue really good is when it includes either all wood or wood mixed with the charcoal. My personal favorite is mesquite wood. that smoky goodness is to die for.

Maybe somebody has already said something about the potato, but just in case, it's probably an Idaho russet. They tend to grow large like the one in the video and are perfect for making a meal out of one. Especially when it's loaded

There are malls in Houston and Dallas called The Galleria malls. You want 4 floors of shopping while you watch people ice skate on the ground floor? It's pretty amazing.

Even though Louisiana and other states aren't as well known for their BBQ doesn't mean that those states don't have places that do serve really good BBQ.

A loaded potato has butter, chili, sour cream, bacon and chives. And some places scoop out the potato first to mash it up first then put it back in the potato.

Love how you did the shelf and the US flag in the back.

When it comes to BBQ in the US, the meat is pretty much cooked the same way everywhere. It's the rubs and sauces that is the big difference.

My butcher shop here in Northwest Arkansas aside from all of the amazing meats and cuts they offer also offers pre-cooked sides, breads and desserts. One of my wife’s (and my) favorite sides is a baked potato salad. It has all the flavors of a baked potato- bacon, sour cream, butter and chives but made into a cold non-traditional potato salad. Which of course here in the South is very common alongside BBQ. So tasty regardless of which one one chooses.

Great intro. Mac and Cheese is very localized. It can vary in how it's made from town to town let alone state to state. Keep up on the intro and soon it will feel real natural.

A Barbeque in America can be just like a Braaivleis most people would have in the backyard or a picnic. The professional BBQ and smoker guys are a different story, they have championship competitions and special awards for their skill, knowlege and experience.

Grilling is basically cooking the meat for immediate consumption, i.e. hamburgers, hot dogs, steak. Each portion is sized for one person. Barbecuing is done with whole cuts of meat like an entire chicken, pork loin, or even an entire pig. it is done low and slow with, depending on the region, different kinds of sauces and rubs. It's a process, while grilling is a method of turning raw food into cooked food in as little time as possible. Grilling also normally uses direct heat for cooking while barbecuing uses indirect heat.

I moved to Texas 10 years ago and promptly gained 80 lbs that i still havent lost and i was a vegan until they brought out the brisket, I had to try it and i have never gone back. Our food is delicious, it doesnt matter where you eat or what you eat, the food in Texas is phenomenal. Fast food or high end restaurant, it does not matter. LA is just as good. You will love Buccees, its about 15 mins from where I live.

First, Leah, I’m right there with you…the redness comes from the sauce it is marinated in/cooked with…and if you like food and love humor watch more of these two…they have a couple of channels and it one can leave you crying on the floor from laughter!

Leah--remember that the smoke in a barbeque pit makes meat turn pink/red. The meat that is pink, here, is pink from the smoke!, not because it hasn't been cooked long enough. Pink ribs have probably been cooked more than 6 hour. the pink brisket, probably cooked 10-12 hours! (maybe even more!)

Funny hearing Leah say "you should shave it..."

I feel the same way about undercooked meat Leah but believe us that the food you saw is definitely well cooked and tastes devine 😊

I like your wall.

The pink is called a smoke ring. The meat smokes at 225-285 for 8-12 hours. It's fully cooked, the pink is just a chemical reaction to the smoke the prevents the oxidation of the iron content in myoglobin.

That's a normal sized baked potato. 😂😂

The pink is called the smoke ring. That stuff cooks hours and hours. Thats why the pink is around the outside and not in the middle. Its from the smoke.

The pink is a smoke ring in many cases

The large potatoes are russet potatoes, and they don't all grow that large, but the largest ones are worth more, because restaurants for instance will pay a higher price per pound for the large ones. You can also buy the large ones at the grocery store, but they cost more per pound than the normal-sized ones and are usually sold in smaller quantities, sometimes even individually. However, russet potatoes _in general_ are the most common and most affordable cultivar of potato. The red-skinned potatoes, and the yellow-gold potatoes, cost at least half again and sometimes double the price (per pound) of russet potatoes, which, depending on supply and time of year and stuff, can sometimes be comparable to or even more than the price of the really large russet potatoes.

Prime Rib when fully cooked properly gets that pink color. Part of the slow cooking will also add a pink color as well.

😸 Actually smoking, grilling and pit roasting are all subdivisions of barbecuing.

Oh and the pink in bbq, isn’t it being undercooked, that’s the color meat takes from the smoke and slow cooking, plus any marinade/seasoning you use. And the dark pink on the edge of the meat is the smoke ring.

If you notice with BBQ...It's pick from the OUTSIDE in not the inside out. that's because the smoke will turn it pink that way.

Bass Pro Shops does sale ladies clothing and shoes/boots it’s considered outdoor wear. Also, you can use your grill as a smoker. Instead of the coals being directly under the food, you push them to the outer edge of the grill and cover the grill so you’re trapping the heat inside of it. Yes, some restaurants really serve baked potatoes that large.

My ex-son-in-law made the most AMAZING, TENDER, DELICIOUS, JUICY, pitted pig for my other daughter's wedding reception. He pitted it and let it cook for over 16 hours.

I hope you will get to make your dream come true and come to the USA and have all the BBQ you can handle! It's a good thing that Texas and Louisiana are next to each other so you won't have a long drive to get to each place.

BBQ is different than Grilling. BBQ is smoked/cooked over low heat for a long time. Where as Grilling is cooking medium to high heat for a short time.

When Olly talked about the point being how is it that they do so few things well in the UK, I just couldn't help myself and thought: England, the land where steak is boiled.

Now as for how long this stuff is smoked, I usually smoke ribs for about 6 hours, and up to 12 hours for my brisket. I let my ribs get to about 200 degrees internal temp (F) and my brisket to about 192. I've found that if I go higher, it gets dry and crumbles. Some people like it crumbled, I like mine sliced.

Looks just like what I had for dinner tonight. Ribs, baked beans, chili. I just love this stuff. I'm actually excited for you to try it.

If you have access to a old stand up fridge or freezer, you can easily repurposed into a smoker pretty fast.

If you're a fan of vinegar or pickles, then East N.Carolina pulled-pork BBQ should be on your list. If you ever run into collards, have them with a chile vinegar, salt & pepper; grits are just polenta but a bigger grind and using white corn. corn bread can be sweet or not, it can be cake-y or stodgy... anything made with a ham hock will be amazing.

Baked potato soup is so good. Top it with green onions, cheddar cheese and I like mine with chopped tomato.

I've never had Britain's version of Fish & Chips, but I will say that if it's truly very oily, as I have heard it is, then I can tell you what's wrong. The oil isn't hot enough. When you're deep frying food, and the oil isn't hot enough, then it allows the oil to seep into the food while it's cooking, and that is NOT good. When we do Catfish fish fries at church for Lent, the one thing I was told by one of the old timers was that you gotta get your oil up to a certain temp BEFORE you put your first piece of food in it. When the oil is at that specific temp (can't remember what it was as that was over 25 years ago) the batter starts to cook immediately instead of sitting there and soaking up the oil. The act of deep frying is when you want to crisp up the outer layer (the batter) while cooking the inner food and sealing in the juices. (That's kinda what the batter is for.) So again, if the UK's Fish & Chips are too greasy, then they aren't letting the oil reach the right temp. And once you start cooking something in it, it rarely if ever rises in temp. So you need to let it reach temp before putting anything in it. Ah, OK, just looked it up. The best oil temp to deep fry is between 325° F (162° C) and 375° F (190° C).

One rule I always follow when cooking meat: pork and chicken should always be cooked properly, with no pink on the inside.

Jono contemplating his direct move to Texas after this

Normally, pork is added to beans. “Pork, and beans,” is canned, and served as such. Brisket is commonly beef.

My Dad smokes meat, he's won an award. Our church alway's ask's him to smoke meat for church event's. Rib's usually 2-3 hour's and their usually fully cooked and you want prep them coated in olive oil or mustard to lock in the juces. But Beff brisket and Pork shoulder is 4-8 hour's in a bath, of beef broth vegetable stock or apple juice with applecider vinegar and baist them with a brush often. Applecider vinegar break's the meat down, to make it tender. And than slow cooked in the oven overnight. You can over smoke meat easily. You want the natural taste of the meat and spices to come through. The biggest thing, cook it how your family likes it. Fruit wood is the best, we like pairing apple wood and apricot wood. You can do hickory and mesquite but the have a powerful flavor, so we would pair a fruit wood like cherry with it. Some people hate hickories taste.

Baked potato soup is more like a chowder than a soup (if done properly). If he was saying it was like watery mash, they probably literally put mashed potatoes in it as thickener, which doesn't really work as it makes it more watery than chowdery.

Just so I can confuse you furthfer, there is also Kansas City BBQ, there is a white BBQ sauce that I can't remember where it is from. When I lived in Virginia we use to get a pulled pork BBQ sandwich that was served with a scoop of Cole slaw.the first bite was Nirvana! I have made BBQ baby back ribs in the oven with commercial BBQ sauce. It took 4hours before I was satisfied and it was delicious. Why don't you try that before you come to the States. Use pork belly and look on line for a BBQ sauce recipe. Good luck!

Hush, I'm watching too

Pink with BBQ doesn't mean undercooked. If anything it's more cooked. The sauce and/or dry rub makes it look undercooked at times. Frankly, the average cooking time for BBQ is about 16 hrs.

Texas has various shopping opportunities with outlet stores that sell the same items available in NY, but without the great risk of crime. Jono, besides the BBQ Louisiana has things like boudin (a type of sausage) as well as gumbo, jambalaya, and a host of foods you might find exotic. A great side that I would recommend from Louisiana is Dirty Rice. Despite the awkward name, it is real good. The closet way to describe it is southern style fried rice.

smoked meat has a pink color from the smoking process its called a smoke ring

Oklahoma is also a MUST! Fried Onion burger is widely considered the best regional style, Chicken/country Fried Steak is better than most texas places, plus others like a caesar salad burger, fried okra, three sisters soup.

You can easily get it to where brisket is cooked for 16-20+ hours. Most people tend to do it for 10-14 hours. The red ring on a lot of the meats here is a smoke ring. You won’t get that by simply grilling, it comes from the smoking process for many hours and it is not even remotely close to being “raw” or “not cooked enough”. Nothing better than good barbecue

Grilling is hot and fast, barbecue is low and slow cooking. In barbecue you get a lot of flavor from the smoke wood used.
