The best thing about this video for me is not that I'm going to actually spend $250 to get that shipped to me, but that it proves I could cook a brisket a few days ahead of time, refrigerate it, and quickly reheat it in a way that preserves its quality well for serving.

[@erikcarlson1562]

I thought the same; wondering if it would need to be a small one like in this vid; or if it still would work for a large one....

[@Metal_Auditor]

@@erikcarlson1562 I wonder how big the one in the video was to start with. With the amount of loss you get from the trim and the cook, I'm not sure it was a tiny one.

[@williamhermann6635]

You're better off starting it the day before you need it and low n slow it overnight. In the morning when its finished, wrap and rest it in your oven or food warmer at 150-170 degrees until youre ready to eat. The longer it rests, the more tender and juicy it will be on the inside. Whenever youre ready to eat, all you gotta do is pull it and allow for 20-30 minutes to cool then serve. Foolproof way to do brisket in case the cook goes longer than expected so youre not eating late. You eat on your timeline.

Living most of my life in Central Texas, the BBQ holy land when it comes to beef, and having had a decent amount of brisket in my day; I do think that Franklins is the best and most consistent brisket I have had. The ribs are also very good. However IMO the rest of the menu is subpar to many other spots in the area. Word of advice, order ahead for pickup of some brisket (you do have to do it many days in advance normally) and skip the line. Pick it up and go on your way. Still hot. Still delicious.

[@johnvrabec9747]

I am happy to see that the mail order Franklin brisket turned out fantastic. Too many times a popular restaurant starts selling their products online and they simply don't even come close to the quality of the in person food. Aaron has created such an iconic brand that he HAS to deliver the goods or why bother and potentially tarnish his image. I cook my brisket his way, and my friends and family say it's some of the best brisket they have ever eaten. Is any food worth waiting in line 6 hours? Maybe yes, maybe no. But the Franklin experience brings all these people together having a great meal and fellowship, and what's wrong with that? One day I will get to FBBQ and share that as well. Great video, your loss for words when eating the point says it all.

[@inmyopinion651]

I know its expensive but I m going to try one of these mail order briskets just one time to see how much better it is than I do here at home. Its 32 I think in store and this way no wait or plane ticket to Texas needed.

[@idontedit7375]

Get a sous vide. You absolutely will not regret it. You can pre-smoke your protiens and then cook them sous vide. The smoke flavor will amplify during the cook, additionally, you can guarantee perfect temperature and texture. Rest and sear, enjoy. I promise, you won't regret it.

[@machtschnell7452]

I can say something bad about it. $250 I'd rather buy a USDA PRIME packer and spend the 18 hours doing it myself. I took Franklin's Master Class and learned a lot. I also learned from life to not over pay for hype. Same with his pit. It's nice, very well made but about $1000 too much just to get a Franklin cut out on the fire box. Nice video though!

[@marcgarrett5427]

Fresh beef has become so incredibly expensive, I don’t see how any business that deals in beef is making any money. Fast food like McDonald’s and Burger King are gonna have to make all their burgers the size of sliders if beef doesn’t stop going up. I can honestly say that there was a point in time when Marker Basket wold put briskets that were somewhere between select and choice grade on sale every Labor Day and Memorial Day for NINETY-NINE ($0.99) CENTS a pound! For twenty cents more a pound my butcher would grind a couple of hundred pounds and double wrap two pound packages for the freezer. On the same holiday sale, whole top sirloins would go for one ninety-nine ($1.99) a pound. For twenty cents a pound he’d slice a hundred pounds into 3/4 inch steaks and double wrap them for the freezer. My family ate good back then. Real choice beef! Nowadays even select grade brisket and sirloin is untouchable. It’s downright un-American.

And that I buy certain cuts, like whole briskets from other customers who only wishes to grind the entire chuck into hamburger (we actually trade, pound for pound)?

It's only about 5lbs and Jeremy can cook his own but he even admitted that he can't make his as good as Franklin's.

Hell when i grew up in Austin, brisket was a poor mans cut. nobody wanted it. now look at it more expensive than steak

[@c7adventures376]

Lol. Its kinda funny to see what good marketing and social media can do for you. The bbq pit Franklin sells start at $3,000.00 I cant help but wonder how much if you buy from the guy that really makes them.

[@deangerber1797]

Mike I often thought the same as you. Holy crap you used to get it for cheap and now its almost as much as prime rib!

The good old days. I was there from 91-03, and I miss the food the most. We were truly lucky to have that food scene.

@@OldSkaterGuy and good Texas bbq has been around for much longer than that. I am almost the same age as franklin and great bbq is what our families feed us. So thats what we learn to do also. We learn from the best and than just try to emulate that as we evolve into our own cook/pitmaster. IMHO 👍🤠
