    About a month ago, after searching how to cook my first brisket, I landed on your page, followed it to the T, and smoked it on my Kamado Big Joe III. The brisket came out incredible, even my 16-year-old daughter that likes nothing loved it. I Hope my second brisket this weekend is going to be as good as the first. But I will look at this video again and again. Thank you for your detailed video.

    Dear Mad Scientist, I've been watching all your videos. This video I watched maybe a dozen times already. Out of all the TH-cam tutorials on smoking brisket yours were the ones I kept coming back to. You explain everything in great detail and that really helps me as one who's never smoked anything so I'm very greatful for these videos. This past weekend I bought my parents a smoker (bc I can't have one in my apartment). I got them the Oklahoma Joe's offset smoker. Then I searched every Costco in my area for a whole brisket - a lot of them just had flats. Anyway, I finally found a brisket and got excited to start smoking it. 14 hours later and omg it came out pretty damn good for my first cook. My family was impressed and I couldn't have done it without your videos. So I just wanted to say thank you for the work you put into making these videos 😊

      @@rperez416iw If by "campfire wood", you're talking about a pine or other conifer (softwood), while some might say "the brisket was still fine to eat", it is FAR, FAR from as tasty as it could be if your buddy had used a hardwood, such as oak, apple, hickory or (as I use) madrone (most people do not use or have access to madrone). Soft woods, such as pine, give the meat (I hear, because I would NEVER use it) a bitter, harsh flavor. Soft woods have a lot of resin and it can leave a bad taste on the meat and a resin inside the smoker.

It stalled for way longer than expected and ended up taking over 20 hrs to cook, and honestly if I hadn't watched this I would have pulled it too soon to wrap it but I left it and waited for all the criteria to be met before wrapping, and I'm so thankful I did!

I have a lot of respect for you to pull down your older video as your methods have changed and are only showing the current methods being used. You're missing out on some revenue comming in by doing so and again, ton of respect. It showed your passion to teach us what you've learned. Are you by chance a teacher? Just curious.
    I'm relatively knew to smoking meat and can tell you my methods have changed SO much over a year, just like you stated. Some things I use to focus on I realize aren't important and other things I never even thought about I find are extremely important. Just think of what we will be doing in five years from now.... love your in depth videos and I for one love the longer videos.

    Many years ago when I lived in Houston, our house had a huge brick grill/smoker in the back yard. I made one brisket. I asked everyone I knew how to do it and they all said, just, I don't know, cook it. So I bought a relatively small brisket and, because it was more beef than a gathering of 8 or 10 people would eat, I cut it in half. I'm sure I had a tasty rub (I am a decent to good cook). Also, I did know it had to cook indirectly so at least I didn't put it on right over the fire. It shrank. It was the smallest brisket you've ever seen. It did taste good.
    Too bad we didn't have internet in those days. It would have been helpful. I have now been inspired. Might even try another brisket one day.

    I have been wanting to do a brisket for a long time and I have watched most if not all of your videos. What a great resource for a newbie like me. Armed with all this information, I decided to forgo the turkey this Thanksgiving and do a brisket instead. It was a bit of a risk with a large hungry audience but it came out way, way better than I hoped for. Everyone at the table agreed it was a great change of pace compared to the usual bird. I think we may have a new tradition! Thanks for all the pointers.

    I've been a dedicated Traeger user for years but recently made the switch to Asmoke and man, what an upgrade! The precision temperature control really sets Asmoke apart. With my old Traeger, I was always guessing and adjusting, never quite sure if I was at the right heat. With Asmoke's digital controller, I just set my desired temperature and it holds steady, which is a game changer for smoking meats like brisket. Plus, the variety of wood pellet flavors really enhances the smoky taste of my dishes. I've also noticed Asmoke is more efficient and easier to clean. The smart design is just the cherry on top. I'm glad I made the switch, and I can't wait to explore more recipes with my Asmoke. #Asmoke

    On Friday we bought a brisket, since we are an older couple with no family to feed we broke the brisket into 2 4 pounders and a 9 pounder. One 4 pound went into brine for corned beef and the other 4 pound went into a vacumn pack bag and into the freezer. The 9 pounder went on our Traeger pellet grill. I put it on about 7 this morning and at 9 I realized that the Traeger had gone into some kind of error mode. Not sure how long it cooked before the cooker shutdown. But I reset the machine and then stayed close to watch it. About 3:30 I pulled the roast off and wrapped it in parchment paper and aluminum foil. At about 5:30 the wife wanted dinner so I took the brisket off and it turned out perfectly. Thanks for a great video.

    Best and most informative brisket video I have seen, bar none. End product looks PERFECT, I've avoided cooking brisket for fear of F'ng it up, and have only tried once, and the flat was dry unlike yours which was obviously moist and juicy! Lots of tips (salting) cooking for doneness vs just temp, trimming etc. Gonna give this another shot and looking forward to much better results this time. Couple of questions though. Can you salt and wrap overnight? Then season right before the cook? About how long did this particular cook take? I've come to hear expectations of up to 16 hours for a 15 to 17 lbs packer brisket. Thanks and keep up the good work!

    What I like about this video is that it gives no-nonsense information. Jeremy does not sit or stand around telling me useless stories about himself or doing self-promotion. I have smoked meats for 20 years, though just for myself, so I'm not doing more than 2 or 3 briskets at once. So, given that I'm eating most of the meat and not smoking briskets more than once or twice a year. Starting with a great piece of meat and setting the timer for 20 - 30 minutes to remind you to tend the fire. And, use small pieces of wood so your fire does spike. Thanks Jeremy/MS BBQ!!
