The 150 rest. Going 190 IMT then pull. Counter rest down to 160.

[@Ric11111]

Im sure people have pestered you by now but almost every digital oven can be turned down to 150. Either hold the bake button or bake and broil until SP pops up then scroll down 20 degrees. I figured it out on mine without instructions from other youtubers. But if you want a 150 hold, you and most others here with a digital oven can do it fairly easy. Takes 10 seconds

[@nshaner]

I bought a 22 quart roasting oven. It’s big enough to hold two briskets a 140 and only costs like 60 bucks.

[@RumandCook]

That works! 🍻

[@HARDWAYS]

Where did you get the oven? I am looking to buy one, any recommendations would be helpful. Thank you.

[@brianpreston5206]

I'm interested In one too.

[@brianpreston5206]

Is it big enough to hold a 22lb brisket. That's the biggest brisket my butcher can get sometimes

[@worldbfree4u]

If your oven only goes down to 170 degrees, then I think you're dead on with cooking the brisket up to a max of 190 degrees. However, I think for optimal tenderness without overcooking the brisket you should let it rest and cool down to 150 degrees or maybe in the 140s since the oven will be set at 170, there is no danger the brisket's temp will go lower than the 140+ safe zone. I like your spirit to continue testing methods until you get the perfect brisket, as we all know, smoking meat is not an exact science so practice makes perfect (or somewhere close to it). Love your videos and look forward to seeing more from you in the future.

[@RumandCook]

Yep def have to let it rest longer before putting it in at 170. Thanks! 🍻

[@lukehodges4362]

Fun fact. Most ovens have a way to calibrate them (supposed to be used for elevation differences)…you can recalibrate your oven to run colder than the set temperature. I can make mine go down to 140 by recalibrating it to -30 degrees. The actual readout is 170, but in fact it reads 140 inside the oven. It works great

[@RumandCook]

Yep that works well. Mine goes down to 150 normally which is nice. 🍻

[@baxill23]

@@lukehodges4362 what a great idea! This never occurred to me as a way to use this method as well as making jerky.. Love it! Thanks!

may or may not work. Tried it then checked out temps of oven with calibrated thermometer. still read higher that 150 with -30 degree setting. It was on a new Kitchenaid. so beware.

Going to try it!! Genius

[@Cletus-Beauregard1]

What about cracking the door and stick a probe in there to get an accurate temp?

[@patkelly2478]

Thanks for this experiment and many others you have done. So I have cooked many briskets and I have never rested one more than say 2-3 hours. I do a side hustle occasionally and sell BBQ. My method is fairly consistent, and customers love it. However, I've been watching videos about hot hold and have been considering trying it. Cooking on my offset until about 190-195, 2 hour cool down, tallow, wrap foil or paper and hold overnight at 140-150F. However, like others have said, my oven only goes down to 170F. After goggling, I discovered that most ovens can be changed up to about 30°F. I figured mine out and I want to try this. The Goldee's videos is what got me thinking about giving this a try. Smoke on my BBQ friends!

[@RumandCook]

Long hot hold is a game charger. Really improves your brisket. Good luck! 🍻

[@damienwhite1883]

I leave the oven door open about 1 inch, with an external probe to monitor. It always hovers 150-155

[@johnleden1909]

This past weekend I cooked an injected Choice flat on a Weber Kettle with hickory pellets over Kingsford in a Smoke and Sear with water barrier. I kept my 275 temp within 20 degrees for four hours before wrapping. Wrapped in triple brown paper for two hours with leftover injection and one tablespoon of tallow. Finished in the oven at 175 cause my fire was cooling and I was out of briquets. Rested in a beach towel and cooler for one hour. I had very high hopes. Gray, dry and semi-chewy - I just can't get brisket right. #Texas #Brisket cause I'm going to keep on trying. Still saving for my Big Joe. Love your channel.

[@RumandCook]

The flat is the toughest piece to cook. You are better to try a small whole brisket. I’d also try a little lower temp because it’s a small cooking chamber. Maybe 225-250. Could also try the foil boat to help collect some moisture under it. Give it a shot. 🍻

[@donwalker4255]

I used a Weber slide n sear for years with my brisket. Lower your temp. 225 f is about where you want to be with the slow n sear. I only fill e water at the beginning. Don’t peek. Open only as needed. Rest in a warmed Coleman with towel wrapped brisket. I even added a fan powered temp controller to my Weber for more precise cooks. I’ve a pellet smoker now larg ely due to the needed hands on the slow n seatrneeds, but the Weber made fantastic brisket!!

[@baxill23]

Also a word of advice if you want it.. Don't inject a brisket, just buy a prime. A choice can be done as well with great results but I agree, you should definitely shoot for closer to 225 with the size cooker you have and also do a whole packer. May take longer, yes but the results will be worth it.

So, the steps you used were 1. Smoke for 5 hours 2. Let rest for 2 hrs bringing internal temp down to 150-160 3. Hold in oven at 170 for 12 hrs Am I correct on that?

[@RumandCook]

I can’t remember exactly how I did that one, but generally smoke at 200F for a few hours, then increase to 250 and cook until 200-205F internal. Then your steps. 🍻

@@RumandCook That definitely seems to be the standard

[@marshred]

200 box temp until meat probe hits 170. Then 250 Box temp, foil boat or paper wrap, run until meat probe hits 205. 140 box temp for a couple of hours rest. I just ran on last night and several said that was the best brisket they ever had! The juice/rendered fat was like butter on your tongue and the slices would almost fall apart when lifting them. Melt in your mouth!!!

Nice! Last cook resting overnight in my "170F oven" that actually temps 175F near the bottom, I cracked the door with a shim, actually running ~150-155F. Yes, used more NG, but it worked well. I mean, how often do I actually cook whole briskets? Would be a great mod for home ovens to reduce the min by 20F.

Great tip on the #texas #brisket. Yes my oven only goes down to 170 as well. Just bought it in the middle of covid when my older one broke.

[@RyanandIvana]

My oven sat at 170 over night but my brisket internal temp is 177. Got up at 5am to check it and I can tell it got a little firmer. The brisket is not qs films as it was earlier. Hopefully it's fine.

[@RumandCook]

As long as you rest it back to 140-150 to slice you should be fine. With a higher temp rest you can pull it a little earlier in the cook as well. 🍻

[@purpleheartbbq576]

I think a common misconception people have is that if it oozing with juice that’s a good thing when in reality if you let it rest for 14 hours like you did plus let it come down to a serving temp you should theoretically lose a minimal amount of moisture.

[@speedboy6776]

Thanks for the video. As someone who is limited to 170, I have theorized about cooking a brisket with this method of not letting it get all the way past 200 and letting it rest before throwing it in a 170 degree oven overnight. You saved me from having to experiment blindly myself. Can I ask how long you held it overnight at 170? Also, I heard that this method works best with prime grade and up since holding the brisket for so long over night can cause the brisket to dry out if it's not fatty enough.

[@RumandCook]

As long as you let it rest below 170 before putting in your oven, you are good. Held for 12 or 14 hours. Prime is helpful, but not required. 🍻

[@speedboy6776]

@@RumandCook Wow, awesome. Thanks!

[@DeuslMortis]

Honestly, if your oven doesn't go to 150, you should probably just preheat a Yeti cooler with boiling water, put a wire stand in it to keep the brisket dry, and just rest it overnight in that.

[@thelibertyghost1776]

I’ve done that and it Works perfectly

[@brandonin_ny]

I’ve rested probably 50-60 briskets in my oven at 170 with great results. Every oven isn’t the same, however, or precisely accurate with temps. I’m cooking 4 briskets this Friday, if something goes wrong with the rest I’ll remember to come back here and update.

[@xr7604]

@@brandonin_nyafter it hits 200 ok the grill. Can we just put it in the oven wrapped? At 150-170? And leave it till it’s ready to eat?

[@brandonin_ny]

@@xr7604 I would not recommend that because it will most likely become way overcooked. I always let my briskets sit out (wrapped) on the counter to come down in temp to 150 or so, and then put it into whatever warmer you have. In my case, I only have my oven, which goes down to 170. I plan on buying a professional warmer that I can dial in even better. I would prefer to rest at 150 instead of 170.

[@RumandCook]

Def had to let it rest and stop cooking if you take it up to 200. You can cook it until it’s as tender as you want. Then rest to 150-160 and then put in a warmer and you will be good. 🍻

[@johngemignani7068]

I just did a #texas #brisket for a friend for a family reunion,I smoked it 5hrs 225 then Took it up to 250 till it was 190 inter. Then I held it the same way and he said that it was the best brisket they ever had. 🇺🇸🥃

[@RumandCook]

Awesome! 🍻

[@SinisterMD]

Here's a challenge for you because I've seen others do it but I haven't had the chance yet - cook a brisket without touching it. No trim. Apparently it came out pretty good but curious what your thoughts are.

[@RumandCook]

Unfortunately, I disagree with that trend. The extra fat can’t render properly and you only get that good yellow fat on the top section of the fat. I don’t enjoy a bunch of fat on my brisket to begin with. I try and trim pretty aggressively because of this. I just don’t like the texture. 🍻

[@SinisterMD]

@@RumandCook I don’t disagree, but I’ve seen guys that have a lot of experience and say the exact same thing only to find they like it. The Mohawk and other non-rendering fat would seem to be a problem but as I said I’ve never actually tried it. I’m sure there is a reason Franklin, et. al. spend time trimming but that’s what experiments are for. :)

[@RumandCook]

Yeah I hear ya. My issue is that I’m more of a flat guy (shocking I know) because I don’t like all the fat and texture of the point, outside of burnt ends. Add in all that extra fat and I’ll have a brisket I don’t like. I’ll have to really think about it lol 🍻

[@donwalker4255]

I've been curious to see what a "maximum hold" time would be without comprimising the brisket too much. Last thanksgiving I was tempted to smoke by briskets the day before (so I didnt have to be up all night) but that would have required holding the brisket for almost 20 hours. I didnt want to risk it but I am curious what would happen if a brisket was held for close to 24hrs. What's the limit?

[@zachgrossman26]

@@RumandCook Good to know! I wasn't sure if that would overcook it. Even though the hold temp is so low I would think it's still cooking the brisket somewhat, even if very slowly. I suppose I could alternate between keeping it in oven and taking it out for a bit...

The wagyu tallow is nice but overrated. I trim up all my trimmings again, keep the beefy pieces for sausage and put all the fat back on. I get a good smoked tallow to pour over for wrapping, no additional cost and honestly no difference in taste with the wagyu tallow smoked

[@RumandCook]

It’s handy to have around for various other things as well. I use it on steak to aid with a high temp sear. Easy to make though 🍻

[@GEB1974]

Nothing wrong with it. Dose it make your house smell like brisket. #texas #brisket

[@RumandCook]

Yeah a little bit. 🍻

[@chuckhansen5325]

Good video. #texas #brisket

Thanks 🍻

I rest them an entire day

Hope the test works but gotta get my hashtags on :) #texas #brisket

Hahaha 🍻

[@torquebird5130]

A roasting oven is inexpensive and can hold 150 or lower easy peasy

[@RumandCook]

Yep been trying to get my hands on a few to test. 🍻

Love a long rest on a #texas #brisket

[@RumandCook]

Longer the better. 🍻

@@RumandCook I think this is the most crucial step and I'll die on that hill 😅

#brisket looks great it must be #texas style

Thanks! 🍻

[@972NinerFaithful]

Still looks kinda dry n the smoke ring is faint

[@RumandCook]

Smoke ring doesn’t mean much. 🍻

[@972NinerFaithful]

@ does to me

[@RumandCook]

Maybe you should educate yourself then. It has absolutely no impact on flavor. 🤣

[@damson2809]

Wait, so you pull the brisket at 195F off the smoker? I thought the common practice is 203F or so. Interesting

[@RumandCook]

Not if you are going to pull it and rest it overnight in an oven. If you were towel resting you want to cook it until it’s fully done though. 🍻

[@EricPetersen2922]

I shut my KK 42” down when my brisket gets to 182-183 degrees and let it sit over night. I don’t open it for at least 8-9 hours after I cut off all air. Was a happy accident how I fell on to that. Anyways since that time, I haven’t cooked a brisket any other way. The thermal mass of a 42” KK is why that works. A close 2nd is the “hot hold” overnight trick which is a more mainstream solution and something I’ve done for years & recommend to everyone except KK42 owners(very few people). It’s just a better finished product. A warming drawer or proofing oven works perfectly for that. Cheers

[@RumandCook]

Yeah my oven normally holds 155. Just trying to give people options if their oven only goes to 170. 🍻

[@EricPetersen2922]

@@RumandCook when I used to do the hot hold trick. I’d put the brisket up for 8-12 hours at 155-170ish. Point is I couldn’t really notice any difference between 155-170ish. I’d pull the brisket at 203ish +/- and then the hold. I’m a firm believer in the hot hold technique for brisket and pulled pork. Both taste notably better to me. Great changes to your channel. Best

[@RumandCook]

Yeah I pretty much hold every brisket overnight now. Thanks. 🍻

[@EricPetersen2922]

@@RumandCook as do most BBQ joints. It’s something I just kinda of figured out along the way. It’s amazing what we learn along the way. Seems easy in hindsight, but then I start to think about how many cooks I’ve done to get here.😃 Enjoy your weekend and looking forward to your next video. Hope your analytics are on the upswing. Great videos.

[@RumandCook]

Thanks you too! 🍻

[@donaldmatchett]

Live in Houston too hot right now #Texas # Brisket

[@RumandCook]

Haha never too hit for bbq! 🍻

[@rednblu437]

I was skeptical since you weren't taking it past 190. That 'butter' usually happens around 200+ but looks like even at 170, the collagens had time to break down. Might try this!

[@RumandCook]

The long rest is super helpful. 🍻

[@pingpong4016]

Going to 190 ish seems to be the new thing. The long rest creates the softness.

[@RumandCook]

If I’m going to rest and serve then I’ll go to 204ish 🍻

[@crazymonkey9611]

I wish I was your neighbor and could help u eat up all that #texas #brisket.

Haha most goes into the office, but my neighbor does just fine lol. 🍻
