What do you think? Is it worth it to smoke just a flat? If you are looking for new cooks weekly, like and subscribe!

Your timing is impeccable. I did a brined brisket flat last year, a gift from my wife. lol This year, she gifts me with a regular "brisket flat." I think she is telling me she wants me to practice on smaller briskets and then go for it. I couldn't even find out how much it weight(not on sticker), so I weighed it on the scales frozen and it was between 3.8 to 4lbs. I'll go by your recipe and graduate to larger scale briskets next year. lol

I’m glad they’re coming out good! Honestly I find full briskets easier in some ways that flats. Flats are easier to overcook and dry out, so if you’re nailing those when you move to a full packer you should be good to go!

[@EliteBBQSmokers]

love to dry brine the brisket also. Good Recipe and looks good man. I would eat it.

[@UFOBBQ]

Thanks! I prefer the point but sometimes all you can find is a flat 🤷🏼‍♂️

[@CookingwithStephennJacklyn]

Now that's perfection right there 👌 ...looks crazy good. Cheers from Trinidad & Tobago 🇹🇹

[@UFOBBQ]

Thank you! Could have used some of your Caribbean weather today! We got snow!

[@CookingwithStephennJacklyn]

@UFOBBQ LOL...😂 don't think you'd want today's weather either we got rain all day lol 😆 😂

[@troyv8302]

That flat looked darn good. I did do a flat once many years ago on my electric smoker, it didn't turn out that great but I had no clue what I was doing back then either. Don't have the electric smoker anymore so that's a step in the right direction...LOL

When I first moved out I bought a tiny little smoker that could barely fit just a brisket flat. And I screwed up more than a few before figuring it out! Hopefully this video helps someone brand new!

[@Trumpetmaster77]

Great work on that flat bro! Nothing wrong with it, I'd eat it!

[@UFOBBQ]

Thanks! I like the point more but I can’t complain about a good piece of flat!

[@antoniobaskerville6823]

Great Briskett

[@UFOBBQ]

Thanks! I always prefer the point but sometimes all you have access to is a flat

[@TheBeardedItalian]

I would put a major chomp on that flat Ben! I’ve never smoked just the flat before, but I’m also never seen just the point for sale by itself… I do like the point better as well. Let me tell you that flat smoke looks absolutely wonderful to me.

[@CookingwithStephennJacklyn]

Sup Brian ✌️ lol 😂😂

[@UFOBBQ]

Thank you! Hmm I might actually buy just points if I saw them 🤔 but appreciate it. Tasted as good as it looks!

[@TheBeardedItalian]

@@CookingwithStephennJacklyn yo!!! 👀

[@justcookthedamnfood]

Great insight brother. I picked up a flat that was on sale and was wondering how to address smoking it, now I'll just do it like my other briskets.

[@UFOBBQ]

For sure. Just a little bit more care in worrying about it drying out. Otherwise just like a normal brisket

[@JDsBBQnBourbon]

Damn, looks like my kid trimmed that at the store. Really good job working with what you had. Id 100% eat that!

[@UFOBBQ]

Thanks. Yeah hack job for sure, no idea how you butcher something so badly.
