Green Mountain Grills - Davy Crockett - Prime Grade Brisket

[@jayfokichu]

This video just made my decision to buy the GMG Davy Crocket portable smoker! Thanks

[@MadHorseBBQ]

That’s awesome, happy to hear it! And you bet!

[@mllandry1]

Was it still wrap in foil in the cooler ? Thanks

[@MadHorseBBQ]

Yes it was.

[@mvanalst2003]

I have a Davy Crockett as well. It's December in California now, so it isn't too too cold, but it dips down into the 30's or so here. My little Davy Crockett pumps the pellets in like mad, even at 200-225. I want to try a brisket on the Davy Crockett, but I am certain a hopper full won't go any longer than 4-5 hours tops. How may times did you have to load the hopper with pellets? GREAT video sir! Thank you for creating and posting. Big thumbs UP and I'm now subscribed!

[@MadHorseBBQ]

Hey Mark thank you! And I don’t think I filled the hopper back up more than once. The DC I had was pretty dang efficient. If I remember right I could go about 12 hours at 225 with 1 hopper full of pellets.

[@mvanalst2003]

@@MadHorseBBQ very good to know! Thank you for replying. I didn’t assume I’d get one and it’s nice to see it. Thank you again, sir!

[@MadHorseBBQ]

@@mvanalst2003 anytime! Have a great weekend! 🍻🍻

[@210shotz]

whats the L+W of the cooking grate?

[@MadHorseBBQ]

Not sure what you’re referring too.

[@210shotz]

Length and width or depth but I was able to find it. Thanks anyway.

[@MadHorseBBQ]

J P ohhhh lol. I’m an idiot

[@mark35mi]

Great Davy vids. It's 2020. Still using your GMG Davy? Updates? Thanks!

[@MadHorseBBQ]

I sold it awhile back. I had some issues with it. There customer service was top notch but I got tired of the issues.

[@chriscirku5444]

What problems did you have?

[@alfonsoacastro]

@@MadHorseBBQ hi great video. Plesse tell me what issues did you have with the Crockett?

[@MadHorseBBQ]

Fonzo Castro temp swings. I ended up selling it to my buddy. We got him a new drip pan and it fixed the issue.

[@alfonsoacastro]

@@MadHorseBBQ i totally agree with you on the customer service. Great team. I have both crockett and bowie. Crockett has temp swings as well. I was going crazy trying to control it. A new drip pan? You gave me hope. Can you kindly expand my friend?

[@marrdrocertifiedprofession3715]

Skol Brother. I bought a Traeger a couple three years ago. Love it, but I have to babysit the pellets as they won't keep feeding much longer than an hour or so. Kindof a pain for a long low and slow like a brisket. Does this thing need that much attention. Sir Marrdro VWO. SKOL.

[@steealsfreek]

Getting ready to buy a GMG Davy Crockett. 1. Any regrets? 2. Any issues? 3. Any buyers remorse?

[@lordvader5706]

@Jay, I have a Daniel Boone GMG grill and absolutely love it. GMG is a good brand. The Davey Crocket is like the small size, Daniel Boone is medium, and there is one that is fking huge..lol

[@cypherb1]

Very nice and simple recipe for brisket. I will try this for tomorrow Thanksgiving Dinner. From the video I have gathered the following: * Prime brisket flat trimmed * Olive oil rubbed on brisket for a binder * Mix 1 cup pepper and 1 1/4 salt for rub * Add a generous amount of rub on all side of brisket * Round one in the smoker: 225 about 8 hours fat side down. internal temp should be about 170. * Pull brisket, triple wrap with 3x long aluminum foil. Create a basin with foil and add 1 bottle of beer. The underside of brisket should be in contact with the beer. * Round two of smoking, 225 for about 5 more hours. Temp should reach 200 to 203. * Put the brisket in a preheated cooler. He held it for 6 hours before slicing into Could you please confirm? also, does brisket need to be held in cooler for 6 hours or was that because that the time when you were going to eat it?

[@MadHorseBBQ]

Bryan Hieda this was a full packer brisket. I didn’t pull off of temp I pulled when the whole thing was prove tender. Usually 203-207.

[@MadHorseBBQ]

Bryan Hieda and rest time for brisket for me is 2 hours minimum.

[@cypherb1]

@@MadHorseBBQ Awesome! Love your approach to smoking meats. One improvement for the channel could be a text description of your process, which would help viewers replicate your awesome recipes. Keep up the great work and keep the content coming! Have a good holiday weekend!

[@chargriller6547]

Nice cook Brian. Did you have to refill the hopper with pellets during the 13 hour cook? Did you see a big difference between the choice and prime in taste or tenderness or moisture?

[@ailous626]

[@MadHorseBBQ]

I did not have RJ refill the hopper! And yes there was a huge difference in taste! Thanks for watching!

[@randomactsofcooking]

Excellent brisket Brian. I'll have to keep an eye out for a prime cut.

[@MadHorseBBQ]

Random Acts of Cooking thank you!

[@TheRealJoeyB]

Nice ring, brisket looks delish...i only smoke Primes now...such a Big difference It goes: Choice/Select...same thing...Cheap Angus...better Prime...BEST

[@RobertS122]

Where do you find primes? They're hard to find at Cosco and BJ's around where I live

[@farmerjoe338]

Loss the foil , foil is a crutch .

[@erikcarlson1562]

Which pellet Grill do you like better? Do you get the larger Pitts and Spitts for larger cooks?Thanks for the great videos. Keep them coming!

[@MadHorseBBQ]

Erik Carlson for sure the Pitts and Spitts. I bought it because well it’s a tank and looks cool and I want to try something different from my previous pellet grill which was the rec tec.

[@imaking867]

How are you breaking the "stall" when you're cooking to 170?

[@MadHorseBBQ]

walter moore cooking to 170?

[@treywilson234]

Just got my DC. So excited to finally try out these large cuts of meat. I did a pork butt on my char broil kettleman for about 10 hours, it came out fine but had to keep up with the coals and what not. Ready for a true smoking experience lol. Thanks for the vid!

[@CheetosMUFUKKA]

I’m a packers fan. So it sucked to see your Vikings logo. But I appreciate the video 😉 haha brisket looked great and you might have just sold me on a Davy Crockett

[@michaelgehringer6214]

needs a cardinals logo then were good and I'm sold

[@mikekennedy9817]

Go smoke some Cheese...lol

[@philrose1394]

liked your video. trying it tomorrow for super bowl. did you flip it during the 8 hour initial cook? cheers! Phil in Florida

[@TomHorsmanAmateurBBQ]

That's Awesome!

[@mattiabuffolo5241]

Hi congratulations! How much is the total weight of the Brisket?

[@MadHorseBBQ]

Mattia Buffolo there wasn’t a weight on it. But I’d guess around 15 untrimmed and 12 ish trimmed.

[@garrettharper5024]

I"m looking at getting the Davy Crockett but I'm a little concerned with the size. It looks like it cooked that brisket just fine but how often, if ever, do you wish you had a larger smoker?

[@MadHorseBBQ]

Garrett Harper well I own 13 different grills. I own the Pitts and Spitts Maverick 1250 so I bought the DC for a small grill that was easy you use for quick cooks.

[@HeavyMetalBarBQue]

Six Prime Packers?!?!.......You Lucky Dog!!! Try wet aging a few of them........gonna be butter! No going back for you now.... Wagyu is the next step. :-) Do you like the charcoal pellets? Do you think it really adds that charcoal taste? I've been wanting to get some......is the shipping reasonable on them? Keep on Killing it..........Mad Horse Style!!!!!! You Rock!!! \m/

[@DavidLGood]

Nice video... but move that microphone up to your neckline. Several large areas where I had my volume maxed and it was difficult to hear you.

[@ryanharrison2135]

I don’t know how you stayed out of that until after the game. Looks amazing. Vikings looked pretty good. My Seahawks are going to struggle with the o line. Again

[@nniaga04]

Audio was a let down....😏

[@MadHorseBBQ]

Nathan Niaga thanks for the honesty!

[@MadHorseBBQ]

Nathan Niaga and audio is something I’ve been working on/upgrading . My last 10-15 videos or so have a new camera set up with a pretty good external mic. So if you got the time check them out and let me know what ya think. Thanks!
