[@mamaandpapajoe]

That trimming knife was a trophy from a cook off Fred. I never imagined it would become my #1 tool got trimming brisket. Thanks for watching.

[@daddydutchbbq]

Man, that lid fits like a glove .....lol... Mighty fine looking brisket ! I like the grill flavor idea. Nice cook !

[@mamaandpapajoe]

🤣🤣🤣 You like that?🤣🤣🤣 Thanks for watching man!

[@CookingwithStephennJacklyn]

There's not much to say when a "PITMASTER"...is doing his thing. Full 💯 on that Brisket my brother. Take care and y'all have a great week

[@mamaandpapajoe]

Much appreciated my brotha! Take care n thanks for watching.

[@AditiHubbyCookingVlogs]

Big like 😊

[@mamaandpapajoe]

Thanks very much my man!

[@CajunSmack]

Good morning sports fans! I never miss an opportunity to give a thumbs up!!

[@mamaandpapajoe]

You're the best CD!

[@wcneathery3100]

Nice cook CJ, most times I prefer a select brisket as it eats easier for me. A prime brisket with the additional fat tends to sit heavy in the gut😊

[@mamaandpapajoe]

I've also become a fan of Selects, you can really make a good brisket with the right ones. Thanks for watching.

[@tmtundra]

That’s select!? Damn that’s a fantastic looking mound of black gold! Keep grilling

[@mamaandpapajoe]

Thanks a lot for watching TM. Selects can definitely get it done. Take care.

[@bobbicatton]

That grill flavor sounds fantastic to me! Looks awesome👍😊

[@mamaandpapajoe]

It really was Bobbi, very much like a steak. Thanks for watching.

[@homevalueglass3809]

Scissoring the beveled edge, mind blown

[@mamaandpapajoe]

Thanks so much for watching, we appreciate it.

[@gharv1313]

That was an awesome cook CJ! Nothing like a brisket steak😆! You totally nailed it, looked amazing and I bet the charcoal flavor was off the charts. Have a great week! Cheers to you both!🍻🥂

[@mamaandpapajoe]

So true Bat, that grilled steak flavor was delicious! Thanks a lot.

[@TheDawgfathasBBQ]

Good stuff bro!

[@mamaandpapajoe]

My man! Thanks for stopping thru!

[@AlLunacyQing]

Looked like a fun cook! "Steak brisket" sounds like a video waiting to go viral! Cheers bud!

[@mamaandpapajoe]

It really was a fun simple cook Al. It seriously had a grilled steak flavor. Damn good backyard brisket.

[@VillanuevaMedia]

Happy about this one!

[@mamaandpapajoe]

Same here Villanueva, thanks for watching.

[@Trumpetmaster77]

Great looking brisket CJ! Good game!

[@mamaandpapajoe]

Awesome backyard eats TM. Thanks for watching.

[@tylerp4390]

Always fun to try something new and looks like you nailed it! Great video

[@mamaandpapajoe]

Thank you very much Tyler, gotta keep it fresh man.

[@brianveestrom6784]

That was a bit more than a warm and quick cook. Looked nice CJ, a kiss of char tastes wonderful.

[@mamaandpapajoe]

🤣🤣🤣 You remember that huh? 🤣🤣

[@jamesbrooks6043]

That’s select look damn good bro!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@mamaandpapajoe]

That grilled flavor from that drum reminded me of a good steak man.

[@williamcornelison4721]

Just found your site.... Fun to watch. And More Fun to also learn...

[@mamaandpapajoe]

We appreciate your support William. Please let me know if you have any questions.

[@KillerMillerQue]

Good cook CJ, that wasn't a bad looking select at all! Nice cook bro👊🏿

[@mamaandpapajoe]

Thanks for watching Joe's, Selects can get it done.

[@goodman4773]

That shot of the trimmed meat before it hits the smoker says it all.

[@mamaandpapajoe]

While it wasn't marbled, It was a pretty nice Select Goodman. They can be good eats.

[@joefloyd6606]

That looks awesome , going to try my first brisket on my Gateway drum.

[@mamaandpapajoe]

Good luck Joe, you got this!

[@hillbillyboycooking]

Looks really delicious

[@mamaandpapajoe]

BRUH!

[@scottcarter9975]

So beautiful. Will try soon myself. I wish I could find selects. Walmart sells exclusively Choice now. Thanks! Scott (PS: Please remember to do an offset fire management video. Thx age.)

[@mamaandpapajoe]

You won't go wrong wrong with a Choice outside of a few mire dollars Scott. Fire management is on the calendar.

[@kenyattapetty9441]

It definitely doesn’t look like a bad select 😂😂😂. It looks delicious 😋.

[@mamaandpapajoe]

Thanks Ladyn how are you guys doing?

[@kenyattapetty9441]

We’re doing well. Praying the same for you’ll. Thank you for asking.

[@RonOnTheGrill]

Looks amazing! I've been curious about hot and fast briskets for a while, but I'm hesitant to try it on that kettle, man. I think I'd be too close to the heat or something. Great cook as usual!

[@mamaandpapajoe]

Go for it Ron, I've done a number of briskets on my Kettle with great success. Thanks for watching.

[@keithtorbert9929]

Nice job papa joe

[@mamaandpapajoe]

Much appreciated Keith!

[@DS-dw6mo]

Hi! I really enjoy your videos and your cooks look fantastic! Could you please do a step by step tutorial for smoking brisket on the WSM? I just got one and I have a good idea but would like to see what your input would be.

[@mamaandpapajoe]

It's coming in about 2 or 3 weeks DS, we appreciate your support.

[@TDubb-BBQ]

A beauty!! 🔥🔥

[@mamaandpapajoe]

Thanks for watching T!

[@PROMETHEUS-p8y]

Your In My Wheelhouse CJ !! 😉 Nice Finished Product And Some Of Us Luv The Charred Portions !! 🇺🇸💪 P.S. Can You Share The Brand And Size Of Brisket Knife ? Thanks

[@mamaandpapajoe]

Both knives were inexpwnsive slicing knives Charlie. The one I use for Trimming was a trophy from a cook off. It's a 10 inch Messermeister. The one I sliced with is a 12 inch Dexter soft grip slicer.

[@PROMETHEUS-p8y]

@@mamaandpapajoe Thanks CJ ..After Watching You Trim That Brisket I Learned That I Need To Step My Trimming Game Up Beautiful Trim !! 😉💪

[@mamaandpapajoe]

Thanks brotha!

[@hojobbq]

Thanks for the video CJ - fat side down to start - correct ? Thank you

[@mamaandpapajoe]

Yessir, fat down to start. Thanks for watching.

[@thelog86]

On direct heat i do fat down the entire cook at 275 300, and no wrap, minimal trim, you need that fat so it wont crisp up. That one is abit over done the flat will be crumbly. I take it off at 202 if it feels right

[@mamaandpapajoe]

Thanks for watching.

[@stevehilliard1495]

I have looked for the Brooks barrel but can’t find one. I see you have used the Webber lid, that’s interesting.

[@mamaandpapajoe]

The builder James Brooke's does not have much of a social media presence Steve. Some of the top cooks on the competition circuit are using his drums. facebook.com/profile.php?id=100064201352877&mibextid=ZbWKwL

[@mamaandpapajoe]

I like the domed lid as opposed to the flat drum lid. Better air circulation in my opinion and more room from the top shelf.

[@stevehilliard1495]

@@mamaandpapajoe I have a barrel house cooker so if you don’t use the hangers the top level isn’t much use, you have a good idea

[@johnnyp3516]

Are you considering hosting your competition cooking class again ?

[@mamaandpapajoe]

I appreciate your interest Johhny, but I'd never try to put on a comp class if I'm not competing. Thanks for watching.

[@-ram-m2664]

So what temp was the drum running while doing this direct method.?.?

[@mamaandpapajoe]

It ran right around 300 for the majority of the time Ram. At one point I came to check and it had spiked to 400. I don't know how long it had been there but I was checking about every hour.
