Couple tips from a pellet smoker beginner here, I've smoked 4 briskets already and what I have found is you need to make sure you really coat the brisket with the seasoning, this will help get that dark, black bark on there. I smoke at 225 all the way through the cook(i might start increasing the temp to 250 after I wrap it) Make sure you are spritzing it with Apple Cider vinegar or water every hour. At 165 to 175 I would take it off and wrap it in pink butcher paper. You can use foil but I think paper helps with the bark. Pull it off at 203 - 205 and rest it until the temps come down between 150 and 160, but no shorter than 1 hour. Those tips have given me the best results so far and like you said I am still experimenting. I have the Camp Chef Woodwind Wifi 24 if anyone is wondering.

That's really good info! I definitely wanted more seasoning after I took a minute and relaxed off camera. An hour later when i was still snacking on it, is when more seasoning was really showing why it was needed! I've done 225F the whole way through, but decided to play around a little, honestly not particular reason other than playing with times. I want to try and do a hot and fast in the near future, just to see if i can see what all the hype is about or is it just hype. Thanks for commenting, hope you have a great 4th!

On the Traeger 780 pro, there is no super smoke setting and you'd probably need a pellet smoke tube or something to get good smoke at 225. I think 190 to 195 as he did allowed him to get that excellent smoke ring.

The last five minutes really spoke to me. Exactly as you described, i spent weeks on videos/forums building my confidence to try my first brisket on my pellet grill. And my brain froze in the very early trim phase. My starting brisket point looked nothing like the videos...there was so much fat and mystery muscle directions and it was stressful thinking how people would react to cutting into the brisket and seeing a big vein of fat. So the more I carved out the less it looked like any video. Anxiety is sky high...the cost, the time and likely having the scrutiny of the whole hungry family when it comes time to cut it open and being disappointed.... The last five minutes was extremely helpful and I appreciate it. it might be a while before i try again...but i will try again :)

ITs a very stressful process, and the forums just add to it, so many different opinions. End of the day its what your taste buds like. Most important part is getting it to that probe tender in the 200's. Keep me posted on your next try!

I have never done a brisket, but I get how it could get confusing. You do a great job keeping it all straight. Great techniques to overcome and ways to move forward. Love the 'Your Next Best Brisket'. It's all about what you can learn from the past one and make the next one even better.

I know that this post is a year old; but I wanted to try your recipe and see how it went. I found that your suggestion to write it down and don’t get overwhelmed or paralyzed works brilliantly. Not only does it give me a road map, it also allows me to reproduce the recipe. I’m pretty new to pellet smokers, and my Traeger 575 Pro was certainly up to the task. Here’s my rundown: Purchased the brisket from our local BJs club (similar to COSTCO) Prepped the brisket Saturday afternoon and probably trimmed away a pound of fat, leaving me with about an eleven pound trimmed brisket Seasoned with kosher salt and corse black pepper. After 30 minutes I used McCormick Grill Mates Barbecue Rub pretty liberally on both sides. Wrapped in plastic wrap until midnight Grill. Probe 1200 AM 190 F. 150 F. 12 hours 12 noon Wrapped 275 F. 203 F. 3 hours Rest. 3 hours It too almost a whole bag of Traeger pellets. I think it’s 18 lbs I was fortunate to have checked the pellet hopper at 8:30AM and it was almost empty. I had filled it up at midnight Recipe seems to be easy to use and I am anxious to try the finished product in a couple of hours Thanks!

Nice video. I actually have this same grill and am getting better at briskets. My only questions for you is about your traeger probe and what type of pellets you used. I saw that you probed the flat, but other people probe their point. Do you think it's better to probe the flat as you did with your Trager probe? I know it's only a gauge, but my guess is that if your flat was at 150 when you initially pulled the brisket, wouldn't the point be slightly lower because it's thickness? What type of pellets do you prefer for you briskets?

@ComparisonCooking

3 жыл бұрын

Thank you! I did a 24 hour brisket video on that grill you might find interesting, one of the best briskets I’ve ever made. The reason I put it in the flat, it has less fat in it. The point has a lot of fat, which makes it run hotter than the flat and will also become more tender than the flat faster. Even though it is a thinner part, the flat is normally the more challenging section to get prone tender. I typically use hickory for brisket, just Traeger brand. I’ve tried pecan but it wasn’t quite right. I’m not used to pecan either because it’s not local to Maryland. I’ve also used Apple and cherry a few times, I like the mild fruit woods smoke. Thanks for the comment and questions Sean, hope your next brisket is your best brisket.

Now that we don't have a boat, kids don't have activities, I have the weekends to work my offset smoker. Offset is produces a deeper flavor and you can really pick up on the smoke, pellet is a hint of smoke and convenience of an outside oven. Hope that helps, let me know what you ultimately decide.

It’s really not that bad. It’s really just time on the smoker. Once you get it down once or twice it’s 5-10 minutes of trim, 5 minutes of seasoning, 6-8 hours on the smoker, wrap it, another 3-5 hours on the smoker, wrap for two hours and cut. Can also slice it right down the middle for and have two briskets to give a try.

Man my first brisket came out good that took 7 hrs...then my last two brisket I did not so good...took 11 to 12 hrs and got the stall phase at 140 degrees after 6 hrs...I pulled out at 190 degrees and still came out overcooked or dry

To me you can keep the fat mostly on it ; it adds to the flavor in the smoking process and keeps the meat tender and juicy and you can cut to fat off after just as easily.
