There is REAL Texas Brisket and then there is "Texas Style" Brisket. The difference is the true Texan behind the smoker - hey, I'm just sayin! Check out this video to see how you cook a Texas Brisket from start to finish - trim, rub, cook and slicing perfection.

Awesome! Lived in Texas for 40 years and retired to Arkansas. Up here they have no idea what they're doing with brisket! I sure do miss Texas BBQ and brisket. Thanks for your great instructions.
I'm from Mississippi and said the same thing about this dry barbecue in South Texas hahahaha. Greetings my friend. I think we can agree, Arnie makes us hungry!!!
Back when I went to Texas twice a week Brownsville had the best in my opinion. Their brisket tacos were amazing topped with a little pico de gallo.
I too am a native Texan living in Arkansas. I love this channel, great place to start if you want those fantastic, south Texas flavors.
My Mouth is getting 💦. All the way from Arizona.😅😅😅😅
Hilarious! Lived in Texas and now in Arkansas. There's NOTHING like a Texas brisket!
Your channel shouldn’t be free. Your videos are so awesome. They are timeless.
thanks for the comment.
Arnie is not only one of the best Pitmasters in Texas but in this whole nation. He is too humble to say it but he is the the man!
Awe man thanks a bunch, really appreciate the nice words, God bless.
@@ArnieTex - Love your work 👍🏾
I am Texan born and raised. I was unfortunately transferred to the Philippines almost 4 years ago and I miss Texas with every beat of my heart. I would like to thank you for your channel it is my go-to place for watching our beloved food being prepared. I don't have mesquite, post oak, or pecan here but I am experimenting with some native woods. I watch every video that I have time to see and I settle down to watch my Astros afterwards. Keep it up, my brother you're doing God's Work. Until I am back home. Smoke it up for for your bro!❤️🤠
Thank you for your comments!!!
Man, I kind of envy you a bit. I LOVE the Philippines! Have you looked into a wood pellet smoker, I think you can buy imported oak wood pellets, maybe pecan and mesquite also! That would be my first action if I found myself living the dream in the Philippines! I'd be enjoying those pristine beaches during the day, and some wonderful Texas Q in the evenings!
Did you find any native trees that work for smoking?
You are a hell of a pitmaster so much knowledge and great presentation I love your back yard BTW ArnieTex ❤️
Thank you for your comments.
I was born and raised in the Texas Panhandle. Our recipe up here is a little different, but the same results. I was driving a truck coast to coast, and stopped in Florida several years ago and came across a BBQ restaurant attached to a locally owned truck stop. I went in to get something to eat, and the young girl behind the counter pulled a whole brisket out of the hot box, and then began to slice off the bark (fat cap). I asked her what she was going to do with the bark. She said they discard it. I told her "Oh Hell, No!! You include that on my brisket plate. I'll even pay extra." She was confused. I explained that in Texas, throwing away the bark is a cardinal sin. It's the one part of the brisket with the best flavor, and the most coveted part. She included the bark on my plate. As I was eating my meal, she came by my table and asked me if it was really that good. So I offered her a taste. Her response was, "Why are we throwing this away?!?" I know right?!? I know every part of the country, and the world have a different way of smoking a brisket. You can never beat a REAL Texas Brisket. Thanks Arnie for sharing your process.
Fellow Texan here. Just found your channel and loving it. That brisket had my mouth watering. Excellent job. Looks amazing. Love your patience and style.
I followed every single step from start to finish,and after a 12 hour cook the fire dying once (I fell asleep) and 2 hour rest. This is by far the best brisket I have ever had this being my second attempt on my offset smoker. Thank you so much Arnie you are the best!
I've been seriously getting into smoking poultry (turkey, chicken, duck) and pork shoulders for over a year now and this weekend I graduated to brisket. I watched several of your videos on brisket and applied your tips and steps to the best of my ability and it came out great considering it was my first time! Thanks for putting up the content. I'll be asking my family to gift me your masterclass course for my birthday this year! and if they don't then I'll just sign up myself.
Tnx for the feedback Alex, glad your enjoying the videos and stepping up your game, good luck.
Native Texan myself born in corpus and now in east texas!! Love your show I use your recipes every week!
That is awesome!
Wow!!your wife and kids are SOOO lucky,a chef in the house 🥩🥩🥩🥩🥩🥩
Great cook on your Brisket I've been cooking for about 20 years like my father before me That' the way we do it in Texas Low & Slow
You couldn't be more right about the "Texas style brisket" thing on the internet these days. I'm super proud as a native Texan to ogle at that brisket made my by a native Texan. Thanks Arnie!
Turned my Recteq on this morning from my phone. Put my brisket on. Then watched this video while I drank my coffee to get tips and pointers. Need to finish you master class videos. I've been stuck on Reverse Searing Steaks for the Family. Have not had a lot of free time for Brisket and Ribs on my pellet grill.
I don't know how I never seen you on youtube be for we go to Galveston a lot where in south Texas are you I can wait to move back to Texas. GOD BLESS TEXAS
As an OG fellow Texan I appreciate you just getting to the point lol most brisket videos, I’ve realized, I prefer to watch are Texans cause we do it right and to the point lol
Had My BBQ party and my first brisket was a successful..My family ate it up. Thanks Arnie Tex for the help!,
Almost exactly the same prep/cook. Got a couple of good tips (spritzing the paper stood out). Now if the price of brisket would come back down.
Thank you
@@ArnieTex have u tried to smoke Tri Tip same as a brisket? Been wondering bout that since its alot cheaper
I love your channel! I just ordered a hasty bake. I'd never heard of them and I'm 62! I was born in freeport tx and i still live in that area. I'm a fajita fanatic! I'm going to try your method. I just have never been able to produce the tenderness and flavor I'm looking for, but your recipe looks spot on! Thank you!!
I did the fajitas. And it did not dissapoint!! Thank you arnie tex!!
@@pipeliner345 you can’t go wrong with the hasty bake. Good grills and good guys.
@@dustingraham2100 yep. I've cooked on it for awhile now, it's bad ass!
Just moved to Georgia after 23yrs in Texas. I miss this brisket with a passion!! I've given up trying different places after dried up, beef jerky like, no flavor, burnt, stringy waste of meat. After finding your videos I'm gonna try my hand at it. I'm sure I'm gonna fail a few times but will taste better than anything here in Georgia!!
Oh man this a great video! For someone about to smoke their first brisket
That’s a great looking brisket out of the wrapper, but even more when you were slicing it up! The LSG is a game changer for me; I’m going on three years own a small 20x36” LSG offset. Briskets, pork butt and spatchcock turkey keeps me enjoying the smoke! 👍🏽😎
Yea buddy, it's like smoke therapy lol
Thank you Arnie! I value your BBQ expertise, and I appreciate you. God Bless!
Like they say God Bless Texas. Nice presentation MR Arnie.
That's how I grew up.
White bread, pickles, onion, beans and potatoes salad. That's what goes with brisket. Oh and a spicy, non-sweet BBQ sauce if you want.
I'm not to prone to having mustard as a binder I usually cut off the fat and make my own magic brisket rub that's been my family for like 60 to 70 yrs and I miss Texas with a passion great job on the brisket it has a great smoke ring on it
Making a brisket tomorrow morning.. starting it at 5am using this recipe! Let’s see how this goes! I have all the faith! 🤘🏾
Seriously one of your best brisket cooks and video. Well done friend!
Thank you Jeff
Lol. Had my doubts aboy"Real Texas brisket". But after watching this, I'll take a slice of yours anytime. I , like you start Fat side down. I'm not biggest fan of the mustard (I do sometimes use it). Having cooked a few in last 50+ year, have varied the cooking; but it always came back to this basic method. Kudos & count me as a Sub.
Thank you for your comments.
You are a Great Teacher and Inspiration❣️❣️❣️👏👏👏
I’m glad I found this channel, Arnie reminds me of my dad
I learned how to trim correctly last year, it really does make a big difference. Thank you for the input.
I don't even cook but these are just so nice to watch
"If you're lookin, you're not cookin" I'm stealing this line.
Dang. That brisket is moist! Well done brother. Doesn’t get any better than that! I also love brisket breakfast tacos with leftovers!
Howdy from Lockhart! I just found your channel the other day when I was checking out some new carne guisada recipes, and I gotta say I'm loving your videos. I always love checking out other's tips and extra flavors people add to incorporate them into my recipes. Picked up the OG and WOW rub, and can't wait to try them out!
Misplaced Texan here (Corpus Christi), this video really makes me homesick. This is the method I’ve used in the past, but it just doesn’t taste the same in Nebraska as it does in Texas.
Never been great at Briskets but after this I have a good chance of improving it BIG TIME! Love what you’re doing! Thanks man!
Thank you
Seeing you eat the brisket made me wanna cry on how good it looks
Cannot believe I haven’t seen your videos before!! We are from Brownsville and love to turn the pit on every weekend!! Fantastic job there sir!!!!
Awesome! Thank you!
Man that looks delicious ! I love to bbq and I have only made one brisket my dad gave me his pit so now I want to make a brisket
Love watching you cook your meats, whether its fajitas (all the different kinds of meats) or your brisket. I notice that after you wrap your meat, you put it back on the smoker to finish out the cook. I've found when I do that, I use up all my smoker wood and since the meat is wrapped, its not getting any smoke flavor on the meat anymore, essentially feels like I'm wasting the smoke at that point. So I've been finishing my briskets in the oven and they come out exactly the same as if I'd finished them in the smoker, and I've used less than half the amount of wood otherwise. One BIG benefit is if I start the brisket the night before and its reached the point where time to wrap it, then I can just set the oven heat to ~230 degF and then forget it until the alarm goes off when the brisket reaches internal temp ~195 deg and I can catch a few winks of sleep in the meantime instead of having to check the firebox every hour! I know it sounds a bit non-Texan, but I swear by it, and I don't have to go out and buy wood as often. I prefer pecan for my smoke, and its getting harder and harder to find lump pecan wood in the west Houston/Katy area. Thank God for Buc-ee's, but sometimes its not quite so convenient to drive to one when running low! What are your thoughts about finishing a brisket in the oven where all it needs is heat to finish the cook?
I’ve had all kinds of BBQ from one end of the USA to the other, and my absolute fave is still - Texas beef brisket! To me, it’s the ultimate grilling/smoking/bbq challenge to do right, and it’s my #1 test of any new BBQ joint I try. Viva la Texas Brisket! Via Arnie Tex! Your channel is awesome and every one of your recipes that I’ve tried has turned out great. 👏👏👏
El Arnie si sabe😍😍😍😍 looking forward to trying this out, thanks for doing this video!!!
Just did a brisket the way you showed me AWESOME!!!!
I’m cooking my first brisket ever tomorrow morning early. I will use your recommendations and methods. I’m cooking on my pellet grill. Great video. Thanks
Enjoy Larry, let me know how it turned out bud.
@@ArnieTex I have never cooked or ate a piece of meat so good. So tender we cut with a fork. Very juicy. I wrapped the brisket in foil and parchment. I set the brisket flesh side down on the parchment coated in beef tallow. Added a little beef broth.
@@larrytbowman5962 man thats great, wtg!
Texas Champion Brisket 🏆 Great Cook Arnie-Tex!!!
Thank you Mando
I personally do not use mustard. Instead I use bacon fat. Appreciate that you use salt and pepper mixture. Seen videos that make "Texas style" brisket and they always apply them separately (not even going to mention what else they add). It is amazing how difficult a good brisket can be when it is just fire, smoke, meat and salt and pepper.
I have never had Brisket before, that sure looks good we have akot of barquers around our town here in Kentucky.
Must try it soon it’s delicious 😋
I’m smoking one this weekend. My wife and I have a side hustle selling lunches. The meat is going to be used for Indian tacos. It’s a popular item here in Montana but with a Texas twist to it.
Indian tacos? Tell me more, sounds interesting, thanks
Wonderful to watch a Master at work
I'm gonna be doing my first ever brisket tomorrow ... gonna use this technique. Hopefully it turns out. I don't have mesquite so hopefully the hickory I'm using is good enough.
My brother Manny loved your videos. He loved to BBQ. Had the passion for it. Sadly he passed 12/2/22. Our lord is eating some good food right now.😂 keep it up Arnie.
Sorry to hear that, I'm sure he was a great pitmaster.
A new Arnie video? Yay Happy Friday to me! Have a good weekend errrrrrrbody!🤠🥩🔥❤️🔥
Tnx Hector
That brisket is huge. Thanks for posting Arnie....
Yessir Dan it was 17 lbs
Yes, good job ! Cheers from Austria ! 😊👌👍
Cheers Mate, thank you
Thanks Arnie Texas I love watch your videos and your cooking. I appreciate it primo I’m gonna try this brisket cooking today for my daughters birthday party tomorrow
Great 'Texas' brisket video by a 'real' Texas Pitmaster. That brisket is 'real' Texas🔥🔥.
Man you motivated me to go cook. Made fajitas on a disco 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
heck yea thats awesome
@ArnieTex As a born and raised Texan whom has recently transplanted to Maryland, I find your channel to be an oasis of knowledge 🎉. I'm gonna be referencing your channel so I can learn to make Texas BBQ myself, cuz Mexican food and BBQ are my two favorite foods. I mean, I'm loving Maryland, but they don't know what they're doin' with brisket out here 😏 lol. Much love to your channel, man ❤
I have found trimming with the grain is easier. Thank you
So nice to see a little different technique. Best looking brisket I've seen. Gotta go buy one I guess.
Great stuff! I’m out here in Katy and I love your channel and all the awesome recipes and videos. I started my real BBQ journey last year and will definitely try this out. Thank you sir!
Miss Texas cook outs born in Weslaco nice job
Saludos Richard, thanks for watching
Good Job Primo !!!!
Arnie I was just down in Port Aransas last week and got to stop at Snows BBQ on my way out of Texas. I loooooove texas BBQ! I like the tips in this video and will give them a try on my next brisket. Thanks for sharing!
Arnie just discovered your channel about a week ago. You got a new subscriber . Keep up the good work my friend. The Irish Mexican from Escondido California
Great video Arnie! Keep reppin' South Texas Pappa! 🇨🇱💪🏻🇨🇱
With my trimmings I render the fat and save the grease, and I also cook the trimmed meat and put it in my beans.
Hey Arnie, SWFL here, Following your recipe, except I’m working on a Recteq B-380, in at midnight, hopefully I’ll be wrapped by 4am.
Looks amazing. And How bad I would love to taste your brisket. Well done my friend. 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻 keep it up and God Bless
Thank you
Looks delicious Arnie. You should do a video on burnt ends.
Thank you yessir will soon
Great looking B.B.Q Awesome Arnie, Omar and Ana Olvera from Brownsville Texas
Thanks Omar
Thanks for sharing with us. Looking forward to the next one.
Yessir Troy, stay tuned buddy

Aloha Arnie from Hawaii...
After watching your real texas style brisket video Im going to Costco tomorrow to get a nice size prime brisket and cook it on my Weber Kettle... i only hope that it turns out as good as the one in your video...
Beautiful brisket Arnie! Fantastic!
Thanks my friend
Great video Arnie! Keep these awesome videos coming!!
Thank you Frank
You the man Arnie! Keep up the great work!

👌👌👌👌as usual… 🔥🔥good looking brisket Arnie 👍👍👍
Thanks BW
El mero Mero!!! 🎉 Arnie, youre the man!!
Truly a master of your craft sir.
Awesome job, looks so good I can almost taste it
Saludos from Cowtown! Great video, I can't wait to follow your recipe! Hasta luego! 7:25 pm
Arnie is my MOST favorite Texican!!! Love having you as my Texas brother and carrying on Texas tradition!
Arnie, thanks for the video! I have some of questions for you. I wasn't able to look through the comments so I'm sorry if you already answered these questions. 1) Where can I get that sprayer you used? 2) When buying post oak from guys in the valley or SA, I have become suspicious that I'm really buying live oak. Where do you buy post oak and how can you tell the difference from live oak? 3) How do you personally cut the point? Thanks man! I appreciate your time and your work. I've watched all of your youtube videos.
I buy the bags of wood at Academy or Propit or Teds Borderland hardware, it's not always perfect wood either but much more consistent, the sprayer is a garden sprayer, sanitize with vinegar and water first, how I cut depends on whether its a catering / backyard brisket or a comp brisket. i don't normally separate the point and flat nor do I usually dig out the fat in between unless it's really excessive.
The squeak squeak squeak got me 😂 was not expecting that.
I need that cuttingboard Arnie! LOL
I live in south Texas, have judged a lot IBCA comps & can attest that the south BBQ Texas teams are the BEST !!
I love Texas brisket ahh my stomach is growling nobody beats Texas barbecue
TX brisket is great. Moist and tender
Looks amazing! I'm curious. Do you sharpen your knives yourself? If so I'd like to see a video on that.
Yes I do sharpen my own, not an expert at that but I do ok lol. good idea for a video, hmmm. Thanks
@@ArnieTex please do!
Looks like the knives I bought over at Aguilar's .
@@JR-id7lf yep!
I would love this as well
I spritz my briskets with pickle juice, picked it up 10 or so years ago from some dude at a bar who suggested it and been doing it since, I swear it makes for a better bark. (No it doesn't make the brisket taste pickely)
What would be amazing is to use old technology to use a single and secondary burn to introduce
Wish he was my neighbor. This man can BBQ.
Dammmm right that’s Texas! 🤠🍻
Cool man I live down here in the south also by Pearsall tx. I will definitely be trying this recipe
Right on, happy cookin and let me know how it goes!
Great work. Thats looks realy good!!!
Thank you Carlos
AB and Arnie. That would bust some guts🤘👍
