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 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!❤️🤠

You are a hell of a pitmaster so much knowledge and great presentation I love your back yard BTW ArnieTex ❤️

Wow!!your wife and kids are SOOO lucky,a chef in the house 🥩🥩🥩🥩🥩🥩

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!

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!

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'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.

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!!

Native Texan myself born in corpus and now in east texas!! Love your show I use your recipes every week!

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!

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

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

Your channel shouldn’t be free. Your videos are so awesome. They are timeless.

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

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.

Had My BBQ party and my first brisket was a successful..My family ate it up. Thanks Arnie Tex for the help!,

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.

Thank you Arnie! I value your BBQ expertise, and I appreciate you. God Bless!

Like they say God Bless Texas. Nice presentation MR Arnie.

Oh man this a great video! For someone about to smoke their first brisket

You are a Great Teacher and Inspiration❣️❣️❣️👏👏👏

"If you're lookin, you're not cookin" I'm stealing this line.

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.

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! 👍🏽😎

I’m glad I found this channel, Arnie reminds me of my dad

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. 👏👏👏

Dang. That brisket is moist! Well done brother. Doesn’t get any better than that! I also love brisket breakfast tacos with leftovers!

Seeing you eat the brisket made me wanna cry on how good it looks

Making a brisket tomorrow morning.. starting it at 5am using this recipe! Let’s see how this goes! I have all the faith! 🤘🏾

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.

Seriously one of your best brisket cooks and video. Well done friend!

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

I don't even cook but these are just so nice to watch

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!!!!

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!!

Texas Champion Brisket 🏆 Great Cook Arnie-Tex!!!

I learned how to trim correctly last year, it really does make a big difference. Thank you for the input.

Wonderful to watch a Master at work

El Arnie si sabe😍😍😍😍 looking forward to trying this out, thanks for doing this video!!!

Good Job Primo !!!!

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

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!

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!

Just did a brisket the way you showed me AWESOME!!!!

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.

Thanks for sharing with us. Looking forward to the next one.

Great video Arnie! Keep these awesome videos coming!!

Beautiful brisket Arnie! Fantastic!

OUTSTANDING Arnie another great video.😋👍

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.

That brisket is huge. Thanks for posting Arnie....

Great 'Texas' brisket video by a 'real' Texas Pitmaster. That brisket is 'real' Texas🔥🔥.

You the man Arnie! Keep up the great work!

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

Awesome job, looks so good I can almost taste it

Truly a master of your craft sir.

Yes, good job ! Cheers from Austria ! 😊👌👍

Loved your video. Thank you from Pleasanton tx 😊

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.

Great video Arnie! Keep reppin' South Texas Pappa! 🇨🇱💪🏻🇨🇱

I have never had Brisket before, that sure looks good we have akot of barquers around our town here in Kentucky.

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?

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!

👌👌👌👌as usual… 🔥🔥good looking brisket Arnie 👍👍👍

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!

Looks Delicious! Thanks for sharing!

@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 ❤

Great work. Thats looks realy good!!!

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.

Great looking B.B.Q Awesome Arnie, Omar and Ana Olvera from Brownsville Texas

El mero Mero!!! 🎉 Arnie, youre the man!!

So nice to see a little different technique. Best looking brisket I've seen. Gotta go buy one I guess.

You are an amazing cook🙂

Sum Beach that looks good. Great job Arnie.

Man you motivated me to go cook. Made fajitas on a disco 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

A new Arnie video? Yay Happy Friday to me! Have a good weekend errrrrrrbody!🤠🥩🔥❤️‍🔥

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

Saludos from Cowtown! Great video, I can't wait to follow your recipe! Hasta luego! 7:25 pm

Yes it is ‼️🔥🔥🔥 AMAZING 😍🤩 and Cooked with Love ❤️

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

Love you 💖 Arnie!

I need that cuttingboard Arnie! LOL

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.

Looks amazing. And How bad I would love to taste your brisket. Well done my friend. 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻 keep it up and God Bless

I LOVE this sir!!!

Miss Texas cook outs born in Weslaco nice job

Just found you Arnie, like your style!!!

Solid looking brisket there. ❤

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.

That was a great lookin brisket Arnie

Cool man I live down here in the south also by Pearsall tx. I will definitely be trying this recipe

AB and Arnie. That would bust some guts🤘👍

I have found trimming with the grain is easier. Thank you

With my trimmings I render the fat and save the grease, and I also cook the trimmed meat and put it in my beans.

Beautiful job!!! Cant wait to see hiw mine comes out. Thank you so much brother!😂

Love the cutting board.

Love you man!

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.

The squeak squeak squeak got me 😂 was not expecting that.
