I’ve done 8 briskets in the last 6 weeks testing all these methods, so this was perfect timing! I agree if you can cook it evenly by rotating it so the point doesn’t get mushy, you can have the best results cooking it to completely done. I really thought it was helpful how you described what’s over cooked vs. the prime rib taste.

Are you cooking your brisket all the way to the 185 to 195 degrees before you wrap it and put it in the pan, or do you wrap it at some point during the cooking process, and then take it off and rewrap it and put it in the pan?

@@SmokeTrailsBBQ Collagen and fat render from 160 to 185, Water begins to steam (known as a slow simmer on a stove top) at 185. so theoretically, one could pull and wrap any meat at 185, and stick it in a 185 oven for hours to finish. I guess one could even overcook the meat if left long enough

Changed up my Method a year or so ago that is a hybrid of these. 1) Smoke at 180 for the first 2 hrs (Dirty Smoke) 2) Smoke at 255 until brisket comes out of stall in a foil Boat 3) Wrap in Butcher Paper with Wagyu Beef Tallow top and bottom Until right feel and temp (Usually this is 198-202 degrees) 4) Pull from paper 9Save Dripping and let rest for 15 min then wrap in Foil and pour juice over brisket before closing and rest it at 160 degree's for 10 hrs Lots of steps yes but IMO you get the best of all of these and worth the effort

I mix the Goldees with the 190 long hold method, never fail me, i get PERFECT brisket everytime. No wrap No sprtiz pull at 187-190, never over 190. Then rest open on the counter to 165 wrap with tallow in foil and hold at 150f for 12-20 hours, depends on serving time. Very simple, very straight foward, all my brisket cook now is open the lid 3 times only. at 6h roate, at 187 check if done, if not then at 190 PULL time. The easiest smoke nowdays

A couple of weeks ago, I met a friend for lunch at Goldee's. I was very impressed. Probably in my top 2 for the Dallas/Fort Worth area. If you're even in the area, you should definitely check it out. About a week later, I tried the Goldee's method on a brisket. It was a select brisket, so I didn't push the temperature too high. Maybe around 225-240 for most of the time. It stalled out around 190 for maybe 3 hours, then finally began to increase. Both ends were tender when the flat reached 195. I'm not used to a brisket feeling crispy on the outside, but still having that "jiggle." But this one did. After the rest, it was amazing. It would melt in your mouth. I think having it set up to where the heat was flowing across the fat cap really helped. Anyway, thanks for the video!

I did kind of a hybrid version between the foil boat and your method. I foil boat wrapped it about 170° and pulled it at 190°. I let the brisket in the foil boat come down to 165°, put it in a pan, poured half my drippings (from the pan underneath) pit a shear of butchers paper on top of foil boat and crimped it back up (so top is butchers paper on top is crimped up with the foil on the bottom), and then poured rest of drippings on top of butchers paper. I then did the 1/2 cup water and double foiled wrapped and did 16 hr rest at 150° in my oven. It was awesome. I am loving your method. It takes the guess work out of the equation. Thank you for all your experiments. You are my go to guy on brisket for sure.

Just being honest, a 190 and hold method brisket on a pellet smoker is better than 90% of the brisket you will get from a restaurant. The other 10% is the cream of the crop restaurants. You certainly aren’t going to disappoint your friends and family with it. I hold mine at 170 cuz that’s what my oven goes to and it works just fine.

I recently cooked a 20 lb. WAGU Black Brisket for 10 hours at 250 degrees in a Big Green Egg XL. I used a Drip pan with a 50/50 mixture of Apple Cider Vinegar and Water. I spritzed it every hour, with the same 50/50 mixture. I used Oak & Hickory Large Lump Charcoal, with Mesquite for smoke. I took the brisket out of the Egg at 205 degrees and rested it until the internal temp dropped to 170. I wrapped the brisket in Butcher paper with WAGU Beef Tallow, and placed it on a wire rack inside a deep aluminum pan. I added some 50/50 mixture to the pan and sealed it with aluminum foil. Then I placed the pan containing the brisket in an oven at 160 degrees for 12 hours. So from start to finish, this process was about 27 hours. The brisket turned out incredible. Both the Flat and the Point were super tender and juicy, and everyone that normally eats what I barbeque, loved it, and I thought it was the best brisket I ever ate.

I do a hybrid version where I put it directory on the smoker until the bark is where I want it then I wrap it completely in foil for a few hrs then open the foil like the boat until its ready to rest. I've never done this but i know people who just smoke uncovered til the bark is done then wrap til its ready to rest. When you take it off let it sit on the counter with the foil open for 20-30 min (til it stops steaming) then put in your cooler or oven to hold.

There’s really no downside to separating the point and the flat. Like you said it will help you cook each one to the correct doneness.

One of my favorite briskets I have ever smoked was started on an offset smoker and then moved to a pellet smoker with a foil boat about 6 hours in, or just coming out of the stall. Then once you are getting within 1-2 hours of finishing (190ish) wrap it in heavy duty foil double layered and pour all of the juices from the boat into it. I really think all methods have their merits, don't think of it as this is better than that... every method is just another tool in your belt when you need it.

It is to show people how to use each type of cooker and talk about the strength and weaknesses of each while cooking. I will give you until the end of the year to start making videos. I only know how to maintain a in ground pit and a slow N Sear. Never used a vertical smoker or stick burner. I also know temperature inside out and cooker thickness along with space plays a part. You have more toys than me and experience. That’s why I think it would be better if you do it. I’m going to copy this and put it on Jeremy, Guda, harry, baby back maniac channels and see if they make it happen.

Great comparison. Daniel Vaughn as well seemed to prefer the foil boat method in the Mad Scientist video. I had done foil boat couple times, I quite like it.

Suggestion. Cut the point off when it’s ready. Leave the flat on til ready. Don’t have to remove the whole thing at once

I would like to see you try rendering the 190 degree fat cap a bit extra once it is taken off the grill. Perhaps a broiler for a couple of minutes or a searzal or grill gun at a distance would do the trick? I think you could get that caramel color without overcooking it.

I believe the foil boat flat was drier because it was on the top rack in a hotter environment.

To render the fat better with the 190 and hold you could try cooking it hotter, like @ 300 degrees. I think you also compensate by dropping your pull temp down, maybe 180 / 185...

Great video!! Why not try your 190 hold method but instead of wrapping..foil boat and hold in your oven in the foil boat? Perhaps it will carry the cook over while still leaving the integrity of the bark? Or perhaps 195 since you're not covering the whole brisket

I wonder also if for the foil rested methods, particularly for the method when you take it off early, if maybe a nice torching at the end might be worth a try to see if it helps the bark.

Great video Steve! Quick question, how did you hold the foil boat brisket? Did you re-wrap it in butcher paper with tallow (I've seen Bradley do that on the Chudd's channel) or did you just put it in the warmer as is boated with aluminum foil (which I've also seen Bradley do)? Many thanks for all your testing and advice!!

I appreciate your honesty in your journey to perfecting your brisket cooking method. I almost wonder if you combined some of these methods into one. What if you cooked the brisket to around 175 internal temp for great bark formation, then foil boat it until it hits 190-195 internal temp for the extra smoke and fat render, then place the brisket in tallow soaked butcher paper with your 1/2 cup of water method at 150 degrees for 10-12 hours?

The bark on the foil wrap and foil boat should be identical if cooked identically. I mean, logically, doesn't make sense one would be better than the other, as far as bark goes. Anyway, have you yet experimented with tallow vs lard vs duck fat in the wraps? Just curious, love your channel, keep rocking brother!

The bark gets softened from being fully wrapped in the foil during the hold. The boat stays uncovered during the hold maintaining the crunchy bark.

What is a lump of taro? I’m a newbie and 2 of 3 cooks were pot roast. The first went off at 190-195 due to lack of time and finished in oven at 300 for 45 min and rested an hour. It was better than the others 203 pull rest 2 hours butcher paper (pot roast)

Great video. I just found your channel. I've been looking for a better way (than my oven on lowest 170 setting, or a cooler) to rest briskets a long time, say 6 to 8 hours. The oven seems too hot, and the cooler doesn't hold temp long enough. I'm intrigued by the sous vide "holding chest". Is that something you fabricated or is it available from Anova?

I built a warming oven from a Igloo cooler and a Anova Sous Vide. My briskets have come out great - great info - thanks! I was using the butcher paper/tallow method in a foil pan tightly covered. Considerable condensation builds up the inside of my cooler and drips down - foil pan cover is needed to prevent water intrusion. Question: in the video above, when you rested the foil boat brisket, was it in a tightly covered foil pan or open to the elements? Do you get condensation build up and drips in your resting cooler? Thanks for the great info👍👍

Here’s a question from someone smoking on a drum. Could I use the foil boat method if I plan to smoke fat down (toward water pans) for most of the cook, then flip it over to fat up after adding it to the foil to render the fat further? Seems like a may be able to achieve a similar result using the vastly different cooker.

I inject thoroughly with "extra salty" beef broth (modified). This instills a good natural beef flavor, and distributes a tad of salt within the meat for internal, non bland flavor. Edit: the internal salt also brings out the natural brisket flavor. The broth prevents diluting the beef taste.
