How To Make Smoked Brisket Made Easy for Beginners

[@samuelgnogueira]

1 - Rub: 1x salt for 4x paper portions + mustard 2 - Grass down, meat up 3 - 2h for 225f 4 - More 2h for 250f 5 - after 4h - use water spray, or vinegar with apple. Spray all over the meat, no need over grass. 6 - After around 5h. Get the brisket, cover with paper. Now grass up and meat down. Put it back to the smoker. 7 - With butcher paper, raise to 275f. Leaver for around 2 - 2:30h 8 - Check inside temperature with thermostat. It should also fell as a knife in a butter. If is not soft enough inside, leaver for another 1h 9 - If ready, get the meat, remove paper. Wait temperature to get around 150 to star cutting. See video around 18-18:30 to check how to cut.

As a complete beginner to the intricacies of both, I am very taken with your style of guidance and your video of how to make smoked brisket will be my 'go to' instructional video. It is both informative and well demonstrated. I will be making both smoked brisket and Pastrami in the near future, utilising my large charcoal BBQ for the process.

[@jangiolillo3]

I have been a back yard bbq'er for a few years and just acquired my first pellet smoker. I always thought of it as kind of "cheating" but I am finding out that it's a little different ball game. The smoke tube is a great tip, I will be picking one up soon. Brisket is my favorite meat to smoke and my go-to seasoning is pink salt and fresh cracked peppercorn. People are always surprised that the "secret rub" is salt, pepper, and (cherry) smoke. On occasion I will experiment with other ingredients. Honestly I think the secret recipe is temperature control. I have a great stick burner and I love the act of tending the fire, I feel that's where a good portion of skill comes in. And I do have to agree that his voice and demeanor is very comforting.

I just did my first brisket last week following the steps in this video. During the smoking I kept telling my family that it was just a trial run just to keep expectations down. But boy-oh-boy, it came out juicy, and falling off the bone tender. I was so proud of myself as a first timer. They even called me a pro! How about that? Thanks a lot for putting this video together .

[@TheDawgfathasBBQ]

That is awesome!!! Way to go PRO!

I’ve come back to this video for instruction three times now. Thanks for helping me fool people into thinking I know what I’m doing. Maybe some day I’ll remember the steps and be able to do it without training wheels.

[@TheDawgfathasBBQ]

😆 It's all good. We all do it. 😉 Glad it's helping.

Inspirational, to say the least. You should be working with youth and young adults with encouragement and motivation. Thank you for making my Father's Day even more meaningful. Will return after my first pellet smoker brisket. Thanks again!

[@TheDawgfathasBBQ]

Happy Father's Day!

I do salt and pepper on my brisket but I top it with Traeger's Coffee Rub. It adds a little sweetness and some depth from the coffee. Crazy good.
