Smoked Brisket Chili

[@JeffBradleyWrites]

The beans aren't there for flavor. They're the after-meal entertainment! Chili looks fantastic, sir. Appreciate the content.

I cooked the best turkey that my family has ever had and I have to give you and your seasoning all the credit. Love watching each episode.

[@damanza1334]

You are not lying! I did the smoked and deep-fried turkey that Matt did during his turkey week, and let me tell you..........t'was da best turkey hands down!

[@Gambitfarmer]

I did the same this year and had the same results. Thanks Matt!

[@MeatChurchBBQ]

I love this. Thank you Casey!!!!!

I subscribed just now. This is the first of many many BBQ channels I’ve waded through that is relaxing to watch while being informative and super approachable. You’re a great communicator, I appreciate that you go over bits you need to know without all the extra performance that’s so typical of other channels.

Check out all things BBQ. It's a great channel too!

Appreciate that C!

I bought my pellet grill because of Meat Church and love trying all of the Meat Churh recipes going to up grade my pellt smoker next

[@Cory_Dora]

My husband has been craving this chili for so long, we ordered the seasonings and smoked a brisket just to make this recipe. Well done sir! I have a very happy family. 👍

[@bluepeakwoodworks]

I just made this chili with smoked chuck roast and fresh ground elk for my full family's Christmas Eve meal. I've never had so many raves. Thanks for the great videos and recipes!

[@clintgagner9081]

I live in SoCal and we have Tri Tip. I will smoke a Tri Tip for 2 hours and then Sous Vide it over night (Venison sometimes as well). I chop it and add it in the morning when the chili goes on the smoker. This Chili is INCREDIBLE! I do live in Cali so beans are a necessity. I appreciate your videos, and LOVE the rubs and chili flavoring.

[@ScottNapolitan]

I’ve heard of brisket in chili, it’s genius!👍

[@calvinrice6985]

How about the recipe for that cornbread?! That stuff looks amazing! I think I'm gonna have to try this chili for NYE. Quality videos as usual.

[@realpdm]

I make your other Chili recipe quite a bit and I always use left over smoked brisket instead of the chuck roast. Comes out amazing. I freeze like 10-12 12oz servings for my work at home lunches. Life changing!

[@johnlara5470]

I would never in a million years substitute brisket for beans, that said they are still an accouterment to my chili recipe, of which your meat church chili seasoning is a divine addition

[@topflight250]

I would love to see you do "Over the Top Chili" in the smoker. I bet it would turn out amazing.

[@MeatChurchBBQ]

I want to!

[@josephhunt6921]

Made alot of brisket chilli never thought of warming it in one of my smokers, that looks amazing!

[@smokinjoe187]

I do it all the time in the smoker, a game changer!!!

[@jesssimpson5959]

I’m a Californian that makes a mean pot of chili, now before all you Texans come at me you should know that my dad taught me how to make it over forty years ago and he was raised in Texas lol. But I’ve never tried making it with brisket, and am really looking forward to trying this out, my mouth is watering just thinking about it.

[@grantnumrich9719]

sooooo well done! a few different meats,,,,, chuck, and sausage and beef ground! well done! I love your selection of peppers,,,,,,, well done,,,,, the more hot pepper variety the better. I hope i can recreate your masterpiece!! thank you for helping me to be come a better texas chief as you are!!!!

Epic.. simply epic! Thanks for all the content Matt, you make everyone who watches your videos a backyard superhero!

[@stgga6054]

bro you had me at the first 318 steps and ingredients. Love it. Best CHILI RECIPE EVER

[@ashleygibson016]

East of Dallas, Texas and I put beans in everything, especially chili. When you were born without money from parents that were born without money, beans are a way of life

[@Jim_S.]

I made this for my office cookoff and came in 2nd out of 10 chilis. Two reasons why I think I missed out on the #1 spot. First, this has a pretty good kick and the heat probably turned some people with milder palates off. Second, I ran out of chili before everybody got to try it, so I lost out on some votes. This is probably because it was so good that people went up for seconds before everybody got a chance to get their opportunity to sample it. This is a really good recipe and worth all the time and effort it takes to make it. I'm trying the Texas Red next...

[@chrisprice980]

So my son has been bugging to make this for the last three months. What better time to make it than during 104 degree weather?!? Review - awesome flavor - to be honest, the spice level if you are a mild chili fan, will need to be toned down a lot. I would say halve the amount of chili's and only 2-3 TBSP of chili seasoning max. I made it per the instructions (with only 4 TBSP of chili seasoning for mild) and it still had a big kick. Don't get me wrong - the flavor is amazing and I couldn't stop eating it, just sweating like a longshoreman. Keep up the great work - you are my go to channel for all things barbecue!!

[@natebrinkman7853]

I'm a beans in chili guy myself but I loved your reveal there at the end! Well played!

[@ryankiblinger3382]

Chili doesn't have beans. I love beans. But Chili by definition doesn't have beans. Or tomatoes.

[@mobus1603]

@@ryankiblinger3382Texas Red Chili doesn't have beans, but not all chili has to be a "bowl of red." The only requirements for chili are chilies, cumin and a protein source. Also, CASI & ICS sanctioned competitions allow for tomato sauce or paste, just no chunks of tomato, so saying that tomatoes aren't allowed in chili isn't accurate either.

[@mutanthat]

​@ryankiblinger3382 where is this definition?

[@DonnieMccowan]

Those are Chilli beans

[@jamestingay11]

First I cooked my brisket with your rubs. I use 80/20 beef with the brisket and followed your recipe. I scaled up because I was cooking for the crew at work. I also added 2 jalapenos and 2 poblanos. The chili came out amazing and everyone at work enjoyed it.

[@rchuyck]

Great recipe, doing a brisket in a week, i know whats going to follow it! I love the “subtle” no beans reveal, well done

[@memptn01]

I'm not Texan and I love beans in my chili but that looks amazing. I really want to try that at home with a big ole skillet of cornbread. Also never thought about using tortillas. That sounds good too.

[@johntomasik1555]

Tried this recipe, but I used beef chuck roast that I smoked and ground my own ground beef from trimmings I bought at the butcher. Turned out amazing. Definitely one of the best smoker recipes I've tried to date. Oh, used a pellet grill with Mesquite pellets.

[@jeffpuffenbarger6800]

@:35 - "I mean who's gonna argue with puttin brisket in chili?" - absolutely no one! Another awesome video Matt - I can't wait to make this myself!

[@MeatChurchBBQ]

Thanks Jeff!!!

[@JonnyDoe1776]

Without the beans this chili recipe is a CARNIVORES dream!

[@JonnyDoe1776]

I'm a novice yard cook and I smoked a brisket a couple of days ago. Apparently, I left too much fat on it so after I wrapped it, it became very greasy. It was good, don't get me wrong, but I felt I needed to do something else with it to remedy the greasiness. So, I cubed it up and put it in the fridge to store until I could figure something out. Then, I found this video! Thank you, sir!

[@MikeBoardley]

I made this recipie and it was fantastic! I highly recommend this.

[@ricardocarmona5210]

[@voiceofreason23]

I used your Brisket recipe and it was a smash hit with everyone. My parents were questioning why I was planning on making a chili afterwards with some of the meat, but after they had my brisket and watched this video…they’re not intrigued. Cooking it tomorrow.

[@robertmullen5211]

I see, I click, I salivate. Hey Matt, have you ever done a walk around video of your outdoor cooking space? I live on a lake right now and don't have the space to build one but we are moving soon and I would like to have some idea of footprint and layout.

[@julyrsingh]

Great recipe! Ive made it a handful of times, this next time im going to substitute the Brisket for some Oryx from New Mexico, see how it goes. Thanks!

[@leedoss6905]

One time before I bought my # 22 meat grinder I bought a 16 pound brisket at the store and had them grind it up into chili meat. It made 22 quarts of chili that I canned in quart jars for later. I make and eat chili almost every week. And yes I’m a Texan.

[@bradcampbell624]

Looks terrific. Got to say though, in large parts of Texas, tomatoes are also a no-no.. We make the sauce with rehydrated blended and strained chilies (ancho, guajillo, chipotle, etc) with beef broth or Shiner. All the same, really looks terrific!

[@rueridge7597]

Absolutely! Texan poser. 🤣 Lot of fantastic chile does contain maters though.

[@MeatChurchBBQ]

We make a scratch red but we like to mix in a healthy dose of things you can make with store bought ingredients so it’s more approachable for some.

[@johnnyendo5157]

You’re the freaking man! That is the exact chili I was looking for. Gotta get that seasoning for Christmas. I better ask 🎅🏼

Ha! Love the “You can put beans in chili if you want.” Followed by your t-shirt.

[@jimdawson1886]

This chili is amazing, although I did add beans ;) Try adding linguica sausage along with brisket to give it a little different spin. Its a staple with my family, tastes great on the grill too. Thanks for all of the great insight and amazing recipes!

[@draskuul]

As a fellow Texan, I wholeheartedly agree... Growing up we always had beans in chili, but we were on the brink of poverty. You did what you had to in order to stretch those meals. These days I'm definitely not in that scenario any longer. Granted, I still cry at the current prices of brisket, but the only time beans will end up in my chili is if I'm feeling really nostalgic.

[@MeatChurchBBQ]

Great perspective. Thanks!!
