Which Condiment is the BEST Brisket Binder?

  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 24 ก.ค. 2024
  • I’ve often felt that using a binder isn’t necessary. Steak, brisket and other BBQ items already have moisture that help seasonings stick and I’ve never found that binders affect flavor... but at the same time I’ve always wondered if I was missing out on better BBQ by not pushing the limits. In this experiment I finally had my chance to do so by comparing 4 of my favorite condiments, and the results were wild!

    For the relish I think the acidity might have contributed to that overcooked feeling

    • @chessai2121
      @chessai2121 ปีที่แล้ว +21

      This might be the case. Relish has a pH of 3.0, Mayonnaise ~4.0, Mustard 3.6, and Ketchup 3.7. Since pH is a base-10 logarithmic scale, that means that Relish is ~10x more acidic than mayonnaise, and significantly (but less than 10x) more acidic than the others.

    My binder has always been yellow English mustard mixed with course brown mustard and a 1/5th cup of apple cider vinegar. Gives you a perfect binder with the acid from the vinegar, the spice from the English mustard and the texture from the brown mustard since it has chopped mustard seed in it.

    I always use mustard when doing brisket or ribs. It seems to work the best for me and doesn't leave a weird flavor profile. I think ketchup has so much sugar than I'm afraid it will burn too easily in the smoker.

    I've used tomato sauce w/ tomato paste as a binder. It has a more neutral flavor profile than ketchup because it's just tomatoes. You can pretty much do whatever bark seasons you want with it.

    Max, on accident I discovered that beef tallow tastes amazing when you store it in a pickle jar, and it picks up notes of the pickle juice. So I am not surprised at all that the relish binder was the best. There is something about the combination of pickles and beef fat that makes that flavor better than the sum of the parts? I never thought about just flat out using relish for a binder though. Sounds amazing!

    My personal go to is the family pack pork chop. I get a boneless pork loin and divide it into thirds. After an overnight dry brine, 175F for 6-8hrs. I trim the ends for pulled pork and vacuum seal the other 3 pieces. When I want a pork chop night, I pull out a piece and defrost it. I slice the loin into chops, and I sear and butter baste then for serving.
