Smoking Brisket - the Secret Tips & Tricks You need to know

[@millionairetee2693]

Malcom be killing me 😂😂😂 “Make them ends clap” I know he was a wild boy coming up

[@ARo1032]

“That’s a clapper.. all day long” 😆

[@sfd253]

I really appreciate how experts in the field can say that there’s no set time and you know when you know.

[@Forevertrue]

My two favorite masters of BBQ. That chat was loaded with Gems!! I will watch it repeatedly. Thanks Malcom and Mark!!

@2:53 "That's a clapper right there!" Unreal on this cook. Malcom and Co. make magic happen right before our eyes!!!!!! Thank you.

[@markchristopher4165]

The BEST brisket video I've ever seen. Well done, gentlemen.

[@Beedubya45]

This might be the best instructional video on brisket I’ve seen. Myron’s is very good also, but his is for people who want to cook exactly the way he does it. This video gives a lot of in depth explanations that I’ve never heard before, i.e - Once the brisket hits 200 and the temp is increasing 1 degree every 10-15 minutes, then it’s probably done rendering. Great stuff fellas! Thank you

[@danoesq2]

The first thing is there are a lot of variables cooking brisket and the hardest thing to bbq. I've cooked over seventy so far and screwed up a lot in the beginning. Since then I've bought some high quality pits like Yoder, but regardless of that...two of the best things I've learned if you're learning is cook it to around 160(and that varies)and then wrap it fat side up in a foil boat(which helps preserve the bark)to around 200. After that rest it around 145 for fifteen hours in a cambro or an oven like a Breville that can go down to lower temps. That makes a HUGE difference.

[@nickmaclean7448]

I’ve watched this video about five times because it’s got so much damn information to absorb. Thanks boys! Big help for a brisket newb:)

[@jer48888]

Truth!!!!

[@dianewarner491]

I’m new to the smoking grill. I wanted to do a smoked corned beef on the pellet grill. I followed your instructions and paid close attention to get to know my grill. I was so happy with the results. Good bark, tender and passed the finger test. Flavor was amazing. Thanks for all your help ❤

[@corystiff6387]

LOVE the collab of HowToBBQRight and Swine Life. My FAV rubs and FAV cooks.

[@CleetusM]

Hey dude nice Freedom Factory hat!

[@SwineLifeBBQ]

Thanks buddy! Now let’s get together and cook for you guys!!!

[@mburke1211]

Wow, this video explains brisket smoking from beginning to end, like no other in existence. To me, this is the bible of brisket. I took Aaron's class, and it was good, but this explains the process so thoroughly! Must watch! "The fat in the flat, is where it's at"!

[@nwtraveler5266]

Brisket is the one meat I haven’t smoked yet. I feel more confident after watching these 2 gurus of the pit. Thanks guys.

[@jakesrides4397]

I already liked this guy because he's with my man Malcolm, then i noticed the Freedom Factory hat and said DALE YEAH BROTHER hes one of us! 🤣🇺🇲💪🏼

[@SwineLifeBBQ]

DO IT FOR DALE!!

[@bobfish3176]

Yea. didn't notice that. Very cool.

[@pd8525]

DALE YEAH!!!!

[@emmanuelhernandez3200]

Hell yeah brother

[@nickman0303]

I saw it and stopped listening to find yall in the comments!!!! Whoo hoo

[@deborahwebb3598]

Malcom, my husband loves your videos, so much knowledge and you are kind enough to share with us, may you be blessed!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤

[@TheRealPunisher]

Kobe and shaq back at it again. Love it. ❤

[@raymeigs123]

Love this format. Both of your experience shines naturally. This is the most knowledgeable, enjoyable videos I have watched on smoking. Thank you both so much

[@D4allvlogbysooraj]

THANKS

[@electrickflame353]

I thank you gentlemen for dropping so much useful knowledge to help me try to cook a brisket again! I’m 0 for 2 and paying high prices at restaurants to get my brisket fix. Hopefully the third try will get me through to success!

[@baxill23]

Not taking away from the wealth of knowledge of these two men, but I would suggest watching Aaron Franklin's original 3 part brisket KZbin videos. He made them several years ago but those are what really took me to another level of smoking..

[@dodoheadofCentury]

Watch mad scientist, then Chudsbbq, then Jirby (aka Goldees). Mad scientist is great for beginners, not that good when you have the basics (he is insanely boring). Chuds is great and gives you a lot of detail. Jirby is the final boss. He gives you good details but conveys a lot by what he shows you. He takes everything you have learned and simplifies it and at least helps me consolidate the info into a solid approach. Also nobody has a better trimming video than Jirby. It is restaurant style trim, but I prefer restaurant style.

[@JM-fc9gm]

In my experience it took me a long time of learning other bbq methods to dial in my brisket game.

[@D4allvlogbysooraj]

THANKS

[@Hieroglyph777]

Franklin said once that if you can season your meat and let it sit overnight in the fridge it would help the taste and the moisture a lot. I tried it and he was right, tastes wayyyy better than if you season and then immediately put it on.

[@terrancevasquez2594]

I've been smoking brisket for year's on a Webber 22 Kettle. Still watch Malcolm's videos for additional tips. Definitely it's getting to know your grill/smoker and choosing quality meats and all about the love of grilling/smoking.

[@seahorsie76]

Of all the brisket “how to’s”, this is the best and most informative.

[@winback500]

Love your channel, my father who passed away recently, used to say. Never trust a skinny cook. Both him, me and you cheff sir love our meat and neither one of us are skinny cooks;-) Just the way we like it.

[@billseivers3528]

I don't ever inject my meats before putting them on the smoker as a personal preference, but the point made about the added water in an injection making the cook take longer really makes sense. Thank you for all of the great information.

[@Pensfan-xw2zi]

I've watched a ton of these videos but this one with the 2 of them sitting down and doing the question and answer was one of the most informative I've seen, Very well done as usual 👍

[@spacegas1]

I always learn something from these videos. There always seem to be more nuances to be mentioned that will make me a better cook. Thanks, boys.

[@dcamastro5329]

Yo great back and forth…..you guys hit all the great points…keep it up fellas….thanks for your help and insights

[@daburg8110]

Great video, I watched it while having a cocktail learning, and also salivating for when I do a 18 hr cook on my traeger and rest for 6 hrs……i did a brisket a while ago and only rested an hour……not going to do that again. Thanks for the tips, love it!!! I’m going to start my next brisket at 4pm on saturday, cook it for 18 hours (with a wrap) or so to 205 and rest that beast for 6 hours……can’t wait!

[@Werno15]

Love the new video format, very rewarding watching two masters kickin’ back talking shop!

[@dajcadamsadams6780]

Great video guys. The lighting and audio quality has turned out great. I'm super impressed with the production quality of this. You've come a long way from the yellow kitchen days!

[@irishpirate6779]

them yeller walls and echo audio were the good ol days.

[@89bort]

Doing my first brisket this weekend! Thank you for the content

[@showme....6043]

Man I could listen to Malcolm talk BBQ all day! Great Video!

[@ourlifeinwyoming4654]

It's always good to stop and listen. I've been cooking brisket for years that's fed many, but the learning never steps. I picked up some great info. tonight and paused to think about some things I've missed. This was great guys - thank you!

[@LinkRocks]

Great tips, fellas! I know when I come to this channel I'm going to get the best information with no frills or any other bells and whistles. Thanks for all y'all do!

[@wlp6200]

I'm a fan of yours since way back (vids n pods). It's so special to see y'all grow and develop. The Smokehouse, the PD (shoutout Tyler)... it's all evolving so well. Most importantly, this video has overview content and granular content... I learned a lot and you filled in some knowledge gaps. Wonderful and well done (med-rare baby!)

[@CoinOperator]

Doin it for Dale this weekend making a smoked flat for my family for a late thanksgiving. Hell ya brother.

[@BigStank]

I needed this video. I’ve more or less mastered every meat except brisket, thanks to your teaching style. Brisket has always been that one that I can’t get right.

[@txpitmaster6127]

Thank you Malcom and Mark! I've always cooked to 200 internal temp and wondered why my briskets were still lacking on tenderness. The "last stall" tip blew my mind. I will try it next time.

[@JohnnySportsfan]

I absolutely nailed my last brisket, thanks to your tips

[@eldodiaz1863]

"...You can make them ends clap...That's a clapper all day long." LMAO!!!!

[@tofinoguy]

What sophistication and depth of experience shared by two good old boys. I'm now ready to try this.

[@denialma]

Glad to see brother Malcolm releasing this video. Been wanting to try a brisket so I’m Excited to watch this video.

[@scottd143]

Best long form brisket video I have ever seen. Most videos just show the cook, but the knowledge you shared was invaluable. I use Prime Beef on all my beef cooks, and I think that tallow can make a choice brisket as tender as prime. Thanks

[@rupman27isback]

@23:45 was the part I was waiting for from Malcom! "It's a clapper!"

[@The13inc]

Nice to finally see a new Out The Smoke video

[@robertbennett5964]

Gentlemen, this is one of the best brisket videos ever! Thank you for sharing your knowledge!

[@markpowers7197]

Malcom and Mark, This is most likely the best video y'all have done. Superb information.

[@randyervin8116]

Really enjoyed the conversation between two pit masters. I got serious about BBQ watching Malcom Reed videos. This was perhaps the best brisket video I've watched. Every Pit master brings their own style and techniques, this one is really " Top shelf ".

[@febsat]

Outstanding! Far better than cooking school. No nonsense tips with proven success.

[@nomad090]

i think this is the first video of the new Howtobbqright. Awesome.

[@dmaxdave85]

Been a fan for years and this style video is great. I’ve watched 3 times already. Keep them coming.

[@richgendron9999]

Wow what a great show so informative… love it 😎👍🍺

[@Dranomoly]

So much great brisket knowledge. This was amazing.

[@ThomasButryn]

You guys are true masters of the trade! Thank you so much for sharing all the secrets!

[@pelekibland]

Thanks guys!! So cool to listen to two greats talk about techniques to cook great Q.

[@aldenforbes5741]

Malcolm and Mark, you guys rocked the brisket. I have a MasterBuilt 1050 and have found the sweet spot for brisket and baby backs. Both took practice! Thanks for the detailed description of each step.

[@markhabeck6614]

Thank you allot of great information that a common man never thinks of.

[@wilfordreed3759]

I have to say i was excited when i got notified and sesn that this a long video. You have helped me over the last few years become a better cook. Keep putting out videos and I will continue to watch.

[@cybernode33]

I've been using Traeger+ for a while but recently switched to Asmoke and I couldn't be happier! The precision of Asmoke's temperature control is a game changer. With my old Traeger, I had to constantly adjust the temp and hope for the best. But with Asmoke's dual sensors and new PID algorithm, my brisket comes out perfectly smoked every time. The portability is also a big plus. I love that I can take my Asmoke on road trips or tailgating and still have the same great cooking experience. And the flavors! The variety of wood pellets available lets me experiment with different food profiles. Finally, the app makes it easy to monitor and adjust the temperature even when I'm away from the grill. It's like having a personal assistant for my BBQ needs. I'm a proud Asmoker now! #Asmoke

[@msglca]

You've come along way pilgrim - proud of how you've gone from kitchen to fabulous smoke house - you're the bomb Malcolm

[@Villain175]

Love a good Malcolm brisket video

[@cj2282es]

You guys answered so many of my brisket questions and dropped so much knowledge in this vid. I appreciated most that you demystified and debunked a lot of what’s out there in the bbq ether. Thanks so much!

[@snakebyte7271]

Excellent video, I pull my full packer at 198 double wrap it in foil wrap it in a towel in a cooler for 2 hrs best brisket I have ever cooked. Sliced it it pencil thin held under it's on weight but pulled apart, then made burnt ends. The sirloin of the brisket was fantastic .

[@red8884]

This spreading of knowledge is incredibly helpful! Thank you!

[@narbekalantarians6269]

This is a great instructional video. Totally agree with the tallow being unnecessary to pour on or wrap with.

[@herts9999]

You guys need to make this a series. Even without smoking. Good discussion with you two!

[@brentburns7803]

Love the freedom factory hat. Also, great information.

[@JTOWN-q4j]

brisket is my favorite cut of meat to smoke! I love all the tips

[@rmagala]

I get excited when you post a video, love the format. Good seeing Mark again too.

[@jimpoulter1417]

Thank you for this video, I just cooked my best Brisket so far on my drum smoker following the guidance you provided. Unfortunately your "The BBQ Rub" has been sold out in the UK for a while so I followed your BBQ rub video. Served with a side of bbq beanie weenies. It was a hit with everyone!

[@yankee1219]

This is a great Tutorial video on how to do a proper brisket for either Friends and family or comps. I learned quite a bit in this video would love to see more videos like this!

[@4gz252]

Absolutely awesome! greatest collaboration on KZbin!

[@joshhorstman7646]

Absolutely love this format, guys!!! Way to go!

[@gerryhenning7337]

This is an awesome and educational video, I’ve cooked briskets before and had them turned out well but I feel that bbq you can constantly learn and you two gentlemen are experts in the field so all of us can continue to learn every time you create a video for the rest of us!! Thank you for continuing to put out A+ content!!!

[@t170404]

Great video gents! I’m going to walk back a few things I typically do on my next brisket to see if simple is better. I have typically injected and used a water pan - those are out on the next one.

[@robertmattson295]

Thanks for this, timing is great. This weekend I am having family over. I cooked beef ribs recently, and they were great, so I wanted to do something different. I bought a prime brisket. My history with brisket is 50/50 but I think i know my mistakes. This video confirmed my thoughts on my errors and how to get it done right. To add to the pressure, I am cooking for my own birthday party. I think I got this. Thanks again.

[@wehavefive]

Did Mark say the burnt ends come from the flat at 23:26? I have only had them once, but thought they came from the point.

[@SwineLifeBBQ]

Correct. Real burnt ends come from any where on the brisket that is a little crispy. Competition burnt ends come from the point and of course viral videos always show it coming from the point.

[@TJACS]

Y’all this brisket was absolutely perfect. So freaking delicious!

[@cybernode33]

As a previous Traeger+ user, I recently made the switch to Asmoke and it's been a game changer. Don't get me wrong, Traeger+ was great but Asmoke has truly elevated my grilling experience. The precise temperature control made my brisket smoking process effortless and the flavors were enhanced by the different wood pellet options. I was especially impressed with the smart design and portability of the Asmoke Essential. It made my outings so much more enjoyable as I could easily set it up and grill wherever I wanted. The battery life lasted the entire day of grilling and the fast charging feature was a bonus. Plus, the ability to remotely adjust temperature and monitor food temperature via the app is simply brilliant. Asmoke has definitely changed the way I grill and I can't wait to discover more of its features. #Asmoke

[@jasoncarlson7106]

That is the best video I've seen for cookin brisket !! Thank you guys !!

[@JustGrillingandChilling.]

Nothing better than watching Malcom do a brisket!!!….. and I recognize his buddy from one of Malcom’s “Memphis in May” videos, as a member of the “Killer Hogs” competition team….(or a friend on another team??)…. either way, two experts…. I’m taking the phone off the hook, and putting the “Do NOT Disturb” sign on my front door!!

[@tylermize4591]

love the new format!!

[@George_Carlin23]

Your Killer Hogs Hot BBQ Rub is amazing! I purchased 2 bottles and after the 1st bottle ran out I purchased 2 more. I put it on everything. Even an every day ham and cheese sandwich

[@tictackpainting9983]

Absolutely the best BBQ channel on the internet. Looks amazing gentlemen!!!

[@cesarojeda9101]

Mr Mackey over here dropping the good advice

[@rudyrivera7426]

[@ahuentelman]

Mark repping the freedom factory! 🔥

[@W.Vanderbilt]

These two have really great products. Been using Killer Hoggs for years Mississippi grit mississippi grind are super delicious too.

[@chadacampbell99]

Wow guys. I’m sitting here with a couple briskets in my new smoker cause my old new one stopped working so I went to a pelllet grill. One day I’d love to move to something a little more pro. But I have learned a bunch today. Thanks for the info. North Of The Border Tacos thanks you and so will our customers. Cheers

[@jasonbarker5154]

I’m sure this takes more effort, but I really hope we get more of these long-form videos in the future. Pork shoulder, whole hog, and ribs would be great places to start.

[@chadhawks]

Thanks guys. I have learned a lot from both of y'all. Thanks for being so kind to me a few years ago in Galax Va when both of ya were there.

[@carolynkuntz7765]

What an awesome and informative video on brisket. I've cooked several big packers and they always come out great, but I learned so much about trimming, the stall and how to tell when it is done! So much valuable information. Thank you!

[@tonyibarra9171]

I've had my fails and rewards on cooking a beyond awesome brisket. Every video I've watched from Malcom has been educational and rewarding. I most appreciate the smiles and big eyes when my family and friends taste my hard work ❤ thank you 😊

[@D4allvlogbysooraj]

THANKS

[@larrymcmakin1153]

Some great pointers on smoking a brisket. I paid attention and will apply it soon. Thanks for the video.

[@skew8451]

This was the best brisket guide I found, super informative. Cooking my first brisket now in my little Pitboss Memphis smoker, fingers crossed it turns out ok.

[@AJ-br2iq]

Another great video. Thank you! Going to put one on my Weber smoker this weekend.

[@TheBlondon]

The quality is amazing! Congrats on the smokehouse! Great job on the video Tyler on the boards :)

[@vanassen123]

Cooked a brisket last night. Listening to this is making me want to go ahead right now 😂

[@BrandonCarder]

Love this video. Love the new format. Great info as always.

[@trapshooter2165]

It's good to see you guys making you tube videos again. Missed Out The Smoke channel.
