They not gonna like this one pt 2 (pork butts)

[@donevens4357]

Nice job young Man! I've been smoking butts in an offset for over 30 years. I am sick off all the shit about thin blue smoke! I do it the same as you. I just did 7 butts in June for a graduation party and my friend that had the party told me the next day, that everybody that was there said it was the best smoked meat they ever had. You made my day @ 62 and disabled. The only thing I'm sad about is, I heard you say $15.00 per half lbs, I did it for free. Reminds me of a saying I heard years ago. Nice boy kinda dumb! LOL

[@baroy38]

I love the F it style of fire starting. We’ve been beat over the head with “thin blue smoke only” that’s it makes cooking seem like science. You’re bringing the cooking with feel back to BBQ KZbin. And I hope you trolling the haters with the comments about the hell you’re gonna catch for different things. DGAS about the umm’s or non-traditional methods. Keep keeping it real. That’s what we here for.

[@AV8R_1]

I personally use lump charcoal and a driveway torch, But I agree with you on appreciating his DGAF style. I wouldn't personally use lighter fluid, but, I mean, come on... People have been using lighter fluid to light the back yard grill for decades with no issue. Just because I don't so it doesn't mean its up to me to hate on him for it. Besides, This dude has shaken up the BBQ scene, and now has his own restaurant. As long as I'm still in my back yard, I'm in no position to give him advice. A lot of people would do well to live by that philosophy...

[@trentwatts4913]

@@AV8R_1 don’t forget to add to the owning his own bbq place, that it’s the # 1 bbq place voted in TEXAS!! I couldn’t agree more with what all you said.

[@Daniel-zv4to]

Ive done it like this and ive been able to taste the difference in smoke. Maybe its because its a much smaller cooker though. The laidback style is nice, but some of us are searching for perfection and not just "pretty good" 18:20 i mean none of this matters if you cook it like that. Looks so tough

[@TactlessGuy]

Cooking is a science. It's just that "clean smoke" and hearsay crap isn't scientific. You got thousands of BBQ noobs online who've cooked less than a dozen briskets their entire lives, finally make a decent brisket and then chalk it up to the dozens of "improvements" and unnecessary techniques they've done when in reality their issue was probably something a lot simpler that they didn't realize. Then they go and spread those lies to the next person Lol.

[@glennvonk]

I’m a newby. I have never roasted a brisket. I have a gas grill and a really nice pizza oven. My setup demands some flexibility/innovation for smoking. Thanks for you vids. I’m learning a lot and appreciate your detailed info. (Retired scientist). Best wishes!

[@hulkhuggett]

Man, I am with you on SOOO many levels. I use lighter fluid to start all my fires. So does Myron Mixon (the winningest man in bbq). I also don't think the wood bark makes the food bitter. I'll try the binder again; I haven't been using binders, everything seems to stick without it.

[@Chevsilverado]

Try olive oil as a binder. I also don’t have much issue getting my run to stick, but I used olive oil as a binder and it helps get the bark a little crispier. Mustard doesn’t do much for me since you can’t taste it and it doesn’t really help the bark that much, but olive oil is great.

[@hulkhuggett]

Nice vid, Jirby! I would actually love for you to compare your Millscale pit to the cinder block pit you built and used last year. I mean, I know the Millscale is probably far superior, but I'm curious how much better and exactly which ways?

[@welovedji1116]

I enjoyed every seconds of this video! Rly enjoyed the fire maintence! Its so nice to watch a master doing ths art of BBQ. Pls keep being 100% you, and do what u always do! So much fakness in this world! It takes a true Pitmaster to just pull the meat by feeling and bending, F that temp thing! I totally believe that one should have an open mind when it comes to life, try new stuff, be different, thats how you level up! Keep up the good work! love these videos!

[@stephancrone9245]

In Germany we mostly use pork neck for our pulled pork. 👍 and you see/eat pulled pork also more often then brisket (think this is because you dont get a full packer brisket that easy from local butchers or grocery stores + perhaps in germany cutting a brisket for barbecue isnt that known?

[@clnorris82]

You hit the nail on the head. It's about what you like and how it tastes. There are many blowhards in the BBQ world. I remember 15 years ago where 195 degrees was the holy grail temp for brisket and so many forums and vids championed that temp. Well, it's not, but everyone said it. Meathead who is one of the biggest blowhards has a lot of great info and advice but he also has some absolute trash advice as well. Even though he says it's backed by science that doesn't mean it makes it good. How it tastes is the ultimate test. Keep doing you brotha!

[@DarwynnCarter]

I like the fact that you are willing to not follow the convention just because that's what others are doing. BBQ is not about everyone doing things the same way. It's about learning techniques that work for what you've got. Use the tools you have (food, fuel, equipment) in the best way for the circumstances your under (weather, time).

[@stephengainey3640]

This is so refreshing to find lol. So many people are exact with everything barbecue, and quick to point out every thing someone else does wrong. Thin smoke only all the time, specific binders, etc. I’ve always thought it was habit and most people didn’t even use anything else to form their own opinions, just went with the mob mentality lol. But yeah great stuff man

Watching from florida coming in late obviously but these videos are bbq gold 👌

[@Chevsilverado]

People will have a million different ideas on how to get the “perfect” bbq. Those people are chasing the last 1% of quality. If you follow basic rules you can’t really mess it up. Temp, time, rest. You can throw any meat on the smoker at 250 with a fairly dirty smoke and pull it when it probes tender and it’ll be good. Using perfect clean smoke, fancy wrap techniques, tallows, special rubs, trim styles, fat cap up vs down, perfect smoke colour, etc etc may give you a very slightly better product, but it’s way too much to worry about for the avg person especially for beginners. As long as your temp is anywhere between 200-300 and kinda stable you’ll be good. As long as your smoke isn’t belching out thick white you’ll be good. As long as you pull it when it’s very tender you’ll be good. As long as you rest for an hour you’ll be fine. Don’t be scared of all of these people saying you need a specific 100 step process to make good bbq. Follow the basic steps and do what makes sense for you, then you’ll develop your own style over time and have fun doing it. Sure, those very specific bbq methods may be better than whatever you make the first time, but don’t feel like it’s a requirement. There’s a million ways to bbq and everyone thinks that their way is the only correct way. That fact alone means you can mix and match techniques that make sense to you and you can experiment with anything, that makes it fun. As long as you’re out there smoking meat it doesn’t matter if you make world class bbq. It’s gonna be good and fun. We’re kinda in a bbq renaissance where people are realizing lots of the stuff people believe isn’t true/doesn’t really make a difference. Only time you should worry about all of these perfect techniques is with competition bbq, but competition bbq isn’t even “better” than other styles, it’s just different. And people are winning competition bbq these days without worrying about all of these small things anyway.

[@corrysmith6109]

You should get a fire bellow man! I been doing it just like you to fan the fire and blowing on it but I’m looking into a fire bellow to help keep the fire going when needed

[@logandowner7405]

I like the fire starting with meat on the pit already, I'd imagine having the meat on while the pit heats up helps the meat stay relaxed once you reach temp as opposed to throwing cold meat on a hot cooker.

[@edwardwhite2060]

Question: do you start the fire ahead of loading the meat? Or does the meat start on a cold smoker? Feedback: love the sped up video / voiceover style. Chef John at foodwishes uses similar style.

[@Chevsilverado]

You’d start the fire and get the smoker up to temp before adding the meat. It’s important to get your smoker all warmed up and at a consistent temp before adding the meat because it can take a while and it’ll fluctuate quite a bit as the fire gets going and the metal of the smoker hears up. You could just add the meat right away and it’d probably be fine, but you have to know how to control the temperature right off the bat so it’s useful to get temps under control before adding the meat.

[@Ribpublicansbbqteam]

I cook my pork butts the same way. I like some integrity to the meat. Too many people overcook them, shred them, and then they are mushy and dry. Cooking them this way gives the meat some texture and keeps it moist.
