@@medullaXI forget who did a very in depth video on why pellet smokers don’t really give any smoke flavor… basically the pellets burn too hot and clean to release the volatile compounds that end up flavoring the meat. Only way to get real flavor is by smoldering hardwood. I used a pellet smoker for a couple years to get my feet wet and then dumped it for a smoky mountain 24”.
this does not look as good as the few hundred you have made before, this is just how it looks for me, a bit dry
So amazing that your little one is such a connoisseur!
I am fixing to get some flack but....................the flat looks super dry. Eddie cleaned it up by cutting the slices thinner. He also stated it wasn't pulling right. Not Texas style and on a stick burner but to each your own.

I was like you two years ago and have done well in a few small town bbq comps with my pellet grill. I recommend following Jeremy's own brisket trim, recipe and techniques except maybe starting out at a lower temp for the first 3 to 4 hours to get more smoke flavor when using a pellet grill.
I have a Cookshack SM045 and it makes the best BBQ I ever made. I had a earlier model that I bought in 2005. Just set it and forget it. I used to like to play with fire all day but I like putting a Brisket Or a Butt on before I go to bed and wake up and its almost done..
So, I did a brisket on my offset for smoke and color for about 3hrs. Then, I finished it off in my pellet grill, and it was great. It was 105 outside, and I didn't want to heat the house with the oven. The best of both worlds!

One thing for sure. You can make great brisket some of the time, but not all of the time. No guarantees. This one looked dry and tough, but it happens. Maybe shouldn't have gone out to lunch and left the machine on auto-pilot! But still, good ideas and lessons to take away from this.

Competition and restaurant style briskets are different. The former is about a few perfect bites and the latter is about maximizing high quality yield. Obviously, this isn’t the kind of brisket a good bbq joint would serve but there’s a reason this guy wins competitions.

Yes Jeremy your brisket is very much different but better the way you do it. But shout out too him for his presentation.
Hopefully the pellets do give better smoke. They are called cookshack pellets. Can get them from his online store. Perhaps just a better could would have helped the lack of moisture
I know this is bringing up an old topic, but having just bought a Traeger and having a dad who has smoked meats for his entire life, it lead me to just learning about the different types of smokers. I was watching the video of a Traeger vs Weber vs Franklin Offset, and noticed the model traeger that was being used. Have you re-visited any of these comparisons that you’ve done with a Traeger that comes with the Super Smoke feature to see if that makes a difference when comparing a pellet grill to an offset smoker? Or even to make the comparison of a pellet grill with a super smoke mode vs one that does not have it? Finally, just wanted to say, love the channel and really appreciate the efforts you go through to remove any bias and give a fair “blind test” to all of your comparisons. You seem just as peculiar about your processes and the way you go about your meat as my dad as well, which I really appreciate (as odd as that sounds). Much love from Tennessee!
Enjoyable Video. My second hand Cook Shack smokette makes amazing brisket.
what size is that food warmer is it the 16X22X24?
Awesome. I also cringed cutting it but followed along for the ride. Picked up a couple trucks I will definitely try with the fat rendering on the top. Nice work gentlemen

How come that pellet grill doesn't give a smoke ring? Usually they do give a very nice one. I know it's not flavor but it does look good.
I have tried separating the muscles a few times. It does give you incredible burnt ends but the flat tends to dry out easily. Maybe if he sliced it down to 9” like he said it would have cooked more evenly. Great video though. Eddie is a legend.
@billbryant1288

Even a legend will have a hard time living this one down.
He needs to join that competition and show them what a real brisket taste like. Asking to make it paper thin is a giveaway to make it bend is funny. Ive seen him make slices thick as Lizzo and make it bend. Hes just being nice and respectful.
What model vevor holding oven?? Or size I mean
Texas BBQ has taken over, (for good reason) everyone wants to see an offset brisket jiggle and dance on the cutting board, with a well rendered Carmel color fat cap, that pours juices out like Niagara Falls when cut down the middle, all while being drenched in tallow. I’m in this camp as well. So good. When you have to slice paper thin to pass a pull test, or use sauce, it’s dry and not cooked the way most any of us want brisket. Although I’m sure the flavor was good. This is not due to the fact Eddie doesn’t know how to make brisket, this is just the way of the competition world and how it’s done in that setting by most cooks. It’s a completely different style brisket. There have been many Pitmasters to turn in Texas style brisket, (including Aaron Franklin) at competitions and it just doesn’t do well, as it’s not what any of the KCBS judges are looking or trained for, so unfortunately this style will reign supreme in competitions. Nice job gentleman.
I didn't catch the brand of pellets or how to get them. Thanks.
Loved it
I never want to eat a competition brisket after seeing this.
Been watching Jeremy a long time love the content and the break down of whats happening molecularly to the meat at low and slow. But honestly this brisket just doesnt look impressive to me at all. The flat looks pretty dry even for a flat thats been seperated from the point, it just looks very very dry. Taste is king of couse but ive pulled far far nicer looking briskets off a weber kettle. Id really like to see you give a charcoal barrel smoker or something like that a try over these pellet smokers.
@jeremyyoder what was that pellet brand?
Whats the pellets being used? I couldnt tell from the video
Did the rub have sugar in it? Is that the source of some of the bark?
Question for Eddie…..my PG1000 does not have the third shelf or the WiFi controls or the extra smoke chimney outlet off the back.

My thing about sauce is that, at least *southern* bbq, sauce was a necessary ingredients to help make low quality meats, often sourced from wild game, more palatable as well as helping them last longer. Texas, that used high quality cattle and pork, from the begining prides itself not needing sauce; but in the deep south (coastal carolina and georgia, deep georgia and florida, alabama) where people were eating armadillo, opossum, turtle, ot feral hog, sauce was seen as a critical ingredient.
