@@bobblinka8997 Hi Bob. "Mother Nature" doesn't exist, but God does. I'm against MSG too, but I wouldn't mind trying out this amazing food! Have a good day. Peace!
@@RapidCycling07 people are against chemicals in the food, but for one reason or another its been used under different forms,names etc. Its big no for me.
Looks delicious but my only two constructive criticism points are: 1. Dip both slices in the au jus or not at all. 2. Use the same rub on both briskets.
I agree with RedbirdsJunkie...even thought you are not comparing apples to apples due to one being injected and one that is not, if you're going to dip sliced beef into the au jus, do it with slices from both, not just one. Good video Joe, thanks
Took the word right out of my mouth both of you. Of course the injected one is juicier but how can you compare flavor when the seasoning is different and your technique of eating it is different. Really like watching your videos but sorry this one is off for me.
@@trevarpeek but the whole point is the other brisket wouldn’t have au jus without being injected. That’s what makes the injected one better. The other brisket barley had any juice on the pan.
Oh yeah Joe! What a great comparison test as for injected vs non - injected thanks for sharing my brother. You and the family have a wonderful weekend and stay safe out there. Cheers!
once again...you hit it out of the park..very well made video...super looking meat...I got my brisket thawing out right now..thank you for this post...
Dear Joe, you are one if my very favorites to watch. Everything from skill, to cook, to narrative is beautifully done. Love ya style and personality. Best to family. Take care. Lotsa Live!💜💙💛💚🧡❤
Man, I feel like a broken record, but there's a lot of good information in this video and those briskets look amazingly tasty. Great work, as usual, Joe!
Guess I'll be heading over to the link in the description so I can pick up some angry bull for next weekend! Nice job Joe both looked amazing as always!
Awesome video Joe. I just did a brisket yesterday and injected the flat with straight butter like I've done with my turkeys for years. INSANE!!!! INSANE!!!! Gonna have to try the LC products though because that's ridiculous. Also, let's not act like your Zoro look isn't going unnoticed. Haha you should've had your slicing knife at your side in place of the sword. Love it
Great comparison Joe!! I also religiously inject my brisket every time. Adds tons of flavor that I personally like. As a KCBS judge, brisket is the last of the 4 meats judged, and most judges are getting full by that time, so you really need to WOW them with extra beefy flavor. Thanks for sharing this video, should help lots of folks up their game!!
Wow! That's interesting Mark. It doesn't surprise me that you would inject your briskets. Going forward, all of my briskets will be injected. I just purchased me a nice injector too.👍
@@davo912 The thing is this injection doesn't taste like chemicals, it enhances the flavors of the brisket. Judges do have jobs, many are retired that travel the country and follow the bbq circuit. I guarantee you'll love the flavor on an injected brisket.👍
@@davo912 Bill, the test was to see if injecting works and in this case it did. Do I inject every single brisket I smoke? Absolutely not, in fact I've only injected to see if the injections work. There are a ton of competition bbq folks that find this information useful and a few backyard bbq guys that would like to at least try it. Nobody is forcing YOU to inject your briskets. If this isn't your thing , move on. Theres no need to start slinging crap around to prove that you don't like injected briskets.
Got rid of my old smokers (both were manual wood smokers) and got a new pellet smoker with temp control and Wifi. Planned to smoke a brisket this week, and will be injecting with a Jack Daniels/brown sugar injection mixture. Great tips you have in this video. Two first for me (new smoker and injection)...yeah, I live life on the edge....lol
KosmosQ "beef" seasoning is a great first agent for a "beefy" taste & they also make a "hot cow" seasoning that has a good amount of pepper & heat as a second flavor. It's to satisfy needs of more or less pepper. Just a heads up & they also have "moisture magic" injection that will make ANY meat a lot more moist if wanted. It is amazing when mixed with their "reserve blend" ! I'd highly recommend giving it a try as well. Keep up the GREAT work! Absolutely love your educational videos
Those briskets looked amazing. I need some bread to sop a little of that as jus 😅. I’ve never cooked a whole packer brisket (or flat) primarily because the stores in the northeast typically only carry flats ($50-$60) & I’m afraid I’ll end up drying it out. I’m encouraged & you’ve just removed my fear! I’m gonna see about getting this injection & smoke my first brisket in the very near future. Thank you for sharing brother 👍🏾.
Question for you I see you use yellow mustard as a binder have you ever tried using like a Goldens Mustard with spices in it what is your thoughts on that I have not tried it I am just wondering
Thanks for doing this. I am a traditionalist. Personally. I don't use any special Rub, and injecting is sacrilege to me. I go 50/50 salt and pepper, the best quality beef I can find. Post Oak or Pecan. And sometimes I don't even wrap. I love the Crunchy bark. I guess I feel like if you need to add stuff then you don't know what you are doing. But that is my opinion on what good brisket is supposed to taste like. But I do understand that in Comps it is necessary to inject and bing as many different flavors to the party, they care about the color of the bark, and it being soft. That is Not Traditional... I am glad you did this and it was nice to see a difference between a close comp cook and a close to traditional. I would love to see this again but with comp trimming and bark, and 100% central Texas traditional comparison. This just makes me wonder who set the rules for judging Brisket in Competitions. Sure was not a Texan. And how did injections dominate the circuit? I would love to do Competitions one day, knowing I would have to leave a lot of my ways behind me and swallow some pride. Just need to figure out how to bet injection flavors. lol
Like a surgeon with that knife brother Joe! Both briskets looked amazing, definitely could see the injected one was flowing, point and burnt ends are my favorite ,great cook! Have a great week,stay safe brother!👍🤘
Joe man I could watch you trim brisket all day, thank you for the techniques brother....We use Kosmo TX Beef in conjunction with Cow Cover or Cow Cover Hot, it’s pretty amazing! Great looking briskets, you are the Brisket King my man...Thanks again!!! 👍👊
Looks awsome for sure.... kosmos reserve blend injectiong with the moisture magic is on point. The moisture magic allows a lot of the injection/juice to stay in there a lot better... also the Texas beef with his SPG is fire for sure... the SPG has a ton of pepper in it..... I just finished one used the reserve blend injection with the diagles brisket rub,kosmos SPG, and topped it with one of my favorites SMOKING GHOST.... thing came out on FIREEEEEE. I mist say loved your bark for sure on these keep up the good work and keep representing us Texas boys I’m way up north in the Yellow City!!!!!
Hey Kurtis! I've heard of that diagles brisket rub and people say it's good. I'll need to get me some along with that smoking ghost. Thanks for watching.👍
I smoked a dry aged prime brisket and it had at least the same amount of moisture as your injected brisket had. It would be interesting if you cross compared something like that to the injected one you did.
Super comparison Joe , I can't get CAB here , normally only select brisket locally . Can get a chose if i go to the millitary commassary . So i inject always . But i use ether caned beef consomme or beef broth or stock .
I bet both injections work well. I heard the PX has good meat. I'm gonna get one of my friends to take me there to check it out. Thanks for watching Ole Vet!🤘🇺🇸
Dang I just ordered some product from LC BBQ should have seen the discount code lol oh well, good video and holy cow is one of my go to rubs for brisket
Hi Joe, need a little assistance. Watching all the way from South Africa, I love your channel, I wanted to ask, what spices can I use and what quantities?. I have a 2kg brisket.. need to know how many teaspoons of salt, black pepper, paprika and so on... im going to try this out this weekend. Thank you for your help and god bless bud 🙏
The rub on the injected brisket has a much higher salt content. Salt retains water/liquid. Many times the injections are also loaded with sodium nitrates/nitrates/and salt. All of that contributes to retaining liquid within the brisket. Why salt brines work so well on dry white meat chicken breast. They absorb water from the brine to retain in the meat. Or inject a salty liquid. And if your smoker has a large variance in temp front to back, should put the briskets in side-by-side rather than front to back for more even cooking between the two. There are other injection yes/no videos out here with many fewer differences. Will watch for more of your videos. Thanks for the info provided.
Question. looked like the grain of the point ran opposite to the flat(?) if you were slicing the flat east west, did you slice the point north south? looks fantastic boss!!
@@SmokinJoesPitBBQ Got it, big thanks Joe. Made your beef short ribs Texas style and wet cured a pork belly (makin-bacon) both on the pellet smoker today. Fantastic youtube channel. You're the best boss. FYI, ordered the Angry Bull injection.
Hi Smoking Joe, why did you probe from the side as opposed to the top of the brisket. Also, when u probe from the side, from that one spot, are u checking the center of the flat, the internal (center), and the flat?
This company may be able to help you. beefensteak.nl/ The European style of butchering beef is different from the US. This is why its difficult to get the same cuts there. Hope it works out!
Joe, unless I missed it, did you find they each had different cooking times? Btw, I made my first brisket last week following your methods... it came out hella good... so thank you much 🍻!!
When do you wrap your brisket... when it hits the stall ~160? Heard you mention about powering through the stall and wondered if that meant wrapping after going through it. Thanks for sharing.
Hello Dave, I wrap once I get the color I want on my brisket. If you push through the stall and then wrap, the brisket will be done way faster unless you use foil paper that will obviously speed up the process.
I have been wanting to do my own brisket but I just couldn’t Imagine cooking something that long and then after 8 hours of cook waiting another hour just to eat it I am sure resting does a lot but I can’t even wait 5 mins after cooking a steak
LOOKS DARN GOOD. just ate brisket last night at a new to me bar-b-q joint, all i can say is, brisket should not taste like a plate of vinegar at all, if it does it is considered ruined meat here in kentucky, YUK. EVERY1 in our group later commented they would never go back to that place and that it was the worst meat they had ever tasted. it was a sad sad night for brisket everywhere....
Great cook as usual bro! I gotta say, since I started injecting my cheaper briskets, I do it every time. I do dilute it more than they say as well (great tip). If I have beautiful prime brisket I don't typically inject.
I switched to a traeger after years of looking down on pellet smokers as cheaters and im 100% sold. I still love a wood offset smoker but the pellet smoker produces a damn good brisket and doesn't require constant monitoring. I can do 16-18hr cooks while not worrying about temp. I dont ever wrap unless I'm doing a 275 cook. And even then not till 175-180. But I'm a bark where. Love that thick bark. I inject with beef broth and shiner beer. Let us know how it turns out man!
Joe..love this video. I purchased the Angry Bull injection. Do you recommend injecting the brisket an hour before smoking it, OR would you recommend injecting it 24-48hours before smoking it and keeping it in the fridge? Asking because I’m planning on smoking a brisket on Friday and today is only Tuesday.
Looks great Joe! That injected brisket looks legit, that pull test speaks volume for at home viewers! I've had some struggles with my briskets being dry & have yet to get that pull test where i want it! So I wanted your input. So far I've tried smoking it for 8 hours give or take @ 180 degrees smoke and use a smoke tube for additional smoke. Then I wrap in butcher paper for the rest of the cook until done, usually has really good bark on it. I've never injected, & I usually at least set it in cooler for an hour. But for some reason it's come out dry, more than the non injected brisket in your video here. I noticed you smoked yours at 275 throughout the whole cook if I'm not mistaken. Do you think that's why mine would be drying out inside because I'm slow cooking it and not locking in those juices by cooking at a higher temp? I am encouraged to try this cook @ 275 & inject to see what results i get. I know different grills cook differently as well, and I use a Traeger if that makes a difference at all. But have you ever tried smoking at a lower temp for a more prominent smoke ring? And if so, how were your results.
Hello Nathan, I recommend you turn up your temp to 250° on your Traeger. I don't think you have a top shelf is the reason I day 250° smoke it until you have a nice color and then wrap it. Open up the foil or butcher paper to let the heat vent and then rest it. Wait for your internal temp to get to 201° and then probe it for tenderness.👍
@@SmokinJoesPitBBQ I actually bought a raise rack to lift up the brisket. Is it a good idea to have a pan of water underneath the raised brisket (fat cap down)? If I use the raise rack, would you still recommend 250?
hell yea baby!! i love LC BBQ injections / they have really elevated my competition game!!
Bro! This injection is savage as heck! Brisket was super tasty and so moist! Great stuff!👍🏼

The rub on the injected brisket has a much higher salt content. Salt retains water/liquid. Many times the injections are also loaded with sodium nitrates/nitrates/and salt. All of that contributes to retaining liquid within the brisket. Why salt brines work so well on dry white meat chicken breast. They absorb water from the brine to retain in the meat.

On my 3rd brisket. Trying to get a good pastrami going. Can you advise on temperatures for UK. I have a MasterBuilt electric smoker.
When do you wrap your brisket... when it hits the stall ~160? Heard you mention about powering through the stall and wondered if that meant wrapping after going through it. Thanks for sharing.
Hello Dave, I wrap once I get the color I want on my brisket. If you push through the stall and then wrap, the brisket will be done way faster unless you use foil paper that will obviously speed up the process.
I have been wanting to do my own brisket but I just couldn’t Imagine cooking something that long and then after 8 hours of cook waiting another hour just to eat it I am sure resting does a lot but I can’t even wait 5 mins after cooking a steak
New sub, Joe...great vid, is the injection worth it for non-competition?
LOOKS DARN GOOD. just ate brisket last night at a new to me bar-b-q joint, all i can say is, brisket should not taste like a plate of vinegar at all, if it does it is considered ruined meat here in kentucky, YUK. EVERY1 in our group later commented they would never go back to that place and that it was the worst meat they had ever tasted. it was a sad sad night for brisket everywhere....
Good job Mr.Joe
So hungry now 🤣😂🤣😂
Thank you so much for watching.👍

Hey man what can you make with the brisket juice I had a lot come out from my brisket and I froze it
Hello Ricardo, I mainly use it to dip my brisket into to add more flavor. You can also use it as a dip for sandwiches or make a nice hearty gravy. 👍
How would you make some gravy do you have a recipe?
What temp do you run your pit? Awesome videos man!
Thank you. Normally 275 but it will dip down to 250 at times when the fire dies off a bit. 👍
Great cook as usual bro! I gotta say, since I started injecting my cheaper briskets, I do it every time. I do dilute it more than they say as well (great tip). If I have beautiful prime brisket I don't typically inject.
Hey Jet! Thanks so much for watching buddy. I picked up some prime briskets for $2.79 lb at Costco today. Crazy cheap!🤘
@@SmokinJoesPitBBQ Heck yeah!
Thanks for doing this comparison Joe, that injected brisket looked amazingly juicy! I'm definitely gonna try injecting in future. Cheers
Thanks Mark! I appreciate you watching.👍🏼
Where do you rank the LC BBQ injections versus any other you have liked? Great video!
Honestly, at the top. The other 2 injections I've use are from Kosmos. 👍🏼
@@SmokinJoesPitBBQ thanks, I appreciate the feedback.
Nice Job Joe.
I’m about to try my first ever brisket on a pellet grill. I hope it comes out half as good as yours.
You got this Andre!🤘

I switched to a traeger after years of looking down on pellet smokers as cheaters and im 100% sold. I still love a wood offset smoker but the pellet smoker produces a damn good brisket and doesn't require constant monitoring. I can do 16-18hr cooks while not worrying about temp. I dont ever wrap unless I'm doing a 275 cook. And even then not till 175-180. But I'm a bark where. Love that thick bark. I inject with beef broth and shiner beer. Let us know how it turns out man!
Nice video, how many briskets can do on one bag of LC?
Nice video very helpful 👍🏿
Joe..love this video. I purchased the Angry Bull injection. Do you recommend injecting the brisket an hour before smoking it, OR would you recommend injecting it 24-48hours before smoking it and keeping it in the fridge? Asking because I’m planning on smoking a brisket on Friday and today is only Tuesday.
Thanks John. I like leaving the brisket injected overnight 8-12 hours. Good luck with your cook buddy.👍
How it turned out?
Joe, Nailed it, buddy. Awesome cook, awesome video and awesome comparison. Looks like an injection for the clear win. Nice job buddy!
Like always awesome video
Thank you Kiestpark! 🤘
Looks great Joe! That injected brisket looks legit, that pull test speaks volume for at home viewers! I've had some struggles with my briskets being dry & have yet to get that pull test where i want it! So I wanted your input. So far I've tried smoking it for 8 hours give or take @ 180 degrees smoke and use a smoke tube for additional smoke. Then I wrap in butcher paper for the rest of the cook until done, usually has really good bark on it. I've never injected, & I usually at least set it in cooler for an hour. But for some reason it's come out dry, more than the non injected brisket in your video here. I noticed you smoked yours at 275 throughout the whole cook if I'm not mistaken. Do you think that's why mine would be drying out inside because I'm slow cooking it and not locking in those juices by cooking at a higher temp? I am encouraged to try this cook @ 275 & inject to see what results i get. I know different grills cook differently as well, and I use a Traeger if that makes a difference at all. But have you ever tried smoking at a lower temp for a more prominent smoke ring? And if so, how were your results.
Hello Nathan, I recommend you turn up your temp to 250° on your Traeger. I don't think you have a top shelf is the reason I day 250° smoke it until you have a nice color and then wrap it. Open up the foil or butcher paper to let the heat vent and then rest it. Wait for your internal temp to get to 201° and then probe it for tenderness.👍
@@SmokinJoesPitBBQ I actually bought a raise rack to lift up the brisket. Is it a good idea to have a pan of water underneath the raised brisket (fat cap down)? If I use the raise rack, would you still recommend 250?
They both look great but I think I’d really like to try the injected one . Great vid bro🤘
Yeah bro, it was savage tasting for sure. Thanks for watching bro!🤘
