Hey Mad, thanks for your work, I've enjoyed your videos for years. I live in Argentina and the classic grill here is "costillar" beef ribs and "vacio", a little salt in grains or "salmuera" brine (water and 10% salt, garlic, rosemary, oregano, bay leaf; everything inside a bottle and you throw it to the meat) roasted over direct heat with coal between 2-4 hours. Thanks to your videos and those of Chud's, I made my own smoker and I cook them American style too. Greetings from Argentina, Javier.
Hey Jeremy, love the videos! When I watch brisket videos it seems like the rest period is often overlooked. Any chance you could do a video comparing no rest/short rest/long rest and some of the different options for commercial, or home cook resting methods?
Jeremy, at the risk of affecting your standing in the brisket community, this cut of meat is what a brisket wishes it was. Unlike the brisket, it is blessed by fat on the top, bottom, and in the middle. It's like a BigMac where the bread is replaced by fat! And because we know that fat is flavor, the result speaks for itself. Thank you for expanding your horizons, both culinary and culturally, and hence expanding our horizons. You have done us all a great service by having the courage to go outside the box and show the world's food to the world. And God bless Porter Road for carving up a special order that will hopefully catch on.
@@SafeEffective-ls2pl Once you wrap, your heat source is just an oven, no matter where the heat comes from. You are not cheating by using the oven after the wrap. You are saving wood and also getting a perfectly controlled temperature for the post-wrap stage.
@commishg i dont think anybody would argue about your comparison of brisket with vacio. The reason Jeremy is cooking it they way he is cooking it is because brisket is generally a tough and dry cut that needs the low and slow cooking to reach its potential. I don't know was a bevet? is but flank and skirt steaks are delicious when simply grilled over coals so i assuem a vacio would be also. Using a BBQ method on it is probably over complicating it, but gotta do something different to make this video interesting.
For those who live in SE Florida (Broward and Miami Dade Counties), we have a large Argentinian and Uruguayan population. There are a number of meat and grocery stores that sell these cuts from cattle raised on the Pampas of both countries. They even import their preferred wood que bracho. Vacio has long been a favorite of mine, but cooking it low and slow is definitely something I would try on a future smoke.
I’m a missionary in Asunción, Paraguay. When we came here, I couldn’t find brisket, so I started smoking vacío. Everybody loved it. You can find it in every corner market, or 24 hour convenience store! Although I’ve never found one here half the size of the one you just smoked! I’m smoking one right now for a Fourth of July party tomorrow!
I just smoked this cut last night for Thanksgiving. This is the best "brisket" I've ever had. The meat literally fell apart. I couldn't even cut it. Great job on the video. Porter Road came through on the cut.
I Have my Porter Road vacio on the Webber Kettle with a Santa Maria attachment from Gabby’s Grills right now. Thanks for helping make this available. It looks amazing.
Hey! I live in peru and I actually make that cut when we don’t have brisket available, it’s really good and cheaper here. We usually use it for grilling
A lot like watching a Ferrari car review. Wonderfully interesting and informative, but I know I'll probably never get to drive one. You do make it look amazing!!
I don't subscribe to all the conspiracies regarding the prices of meat in general, beef in specific... But, the cost of beef has dramatically reduced how much we purchase lately and I doubt I'll ever buy a whole brisket again. Can't justify the cost. For that matter, it's like the 70's all over again. As a kid growing up, we went out for dinner maybe once a month or even two. We're back to that again.
@@keithdr_baldy5250 History says otherwise. If prices go up, politicians blame the party in power, no matter which party. If prices go down, they claim ownership even if their no longer majority.
Wow! whoever can get their hands on a vacío in the USA try to do it! you don't have to smoke it slow and low, the muscle is not nearly as hard as in brisket, so you can grill it at a medium temperature. That cut may take 2-3 hours (4 hrs if you take it in the lower side of temp). It's really juicy!
Howdy old friend. My God that looked amazing. I haven’t had a good piece of meat since you guys moved. You truly are a captain of your industry. Congrats and continue success. Geoff
This is the most exciting video you've produced in a while. DAMN! That cut looked phenomenal. Gonna have to talk to my local butcher getting this cut, and throwing it on the Dumpster... ....Surprised you didn't trim off that silver skin.
thnx for provideing a link for where to get it from............... 2-3 weeks for it to ship per the site. I ordered one to try as I have a Graduation party coming up so this should be great for feeding everyone.
Kinda cool you’ve been doing unique cuts lately. Which kinda got me thinking, I don’t think I’ve ever seen you do beef cheeks before. They’re traditionally used in authentic barbacoa. But cooked like traditional BBQ they’re just as fantastic. I did some for the first time not too long ago. Followed a smoke and confit method that turned out absolutely fantastic. If you’re showing off different and unique meats, I’d love to see you do cheeks in one of your videos at some point.
That looks insanely good! I did look it up on Porter Road and have to say the meat there looks amazing, but it ain't cheap! Smoking used to be what we did with cheap cuts, but I think those days are long gone. That said, I do take issue with what you said about brisket only being used for smoking as it has long been the traditional cut for pot roast in my family and I love a good corned beef brisket or (if I can lump the two together) pastrami or Montreal Smoked meat.
Love the videos man! I've learned a lot from your videos and other channels. If I could have you opinion, I have a chargriller "smokin' champ". Thinking of using an old barrel to cut into a baffle most of the length of the cooking chamber and moving the smoke stack from the "cold" side of the chamber to the firebox side of the chamber, hoping the smoke would move in an "S" direction. Think this would be a good idea?
@@insideouskraken3424 good to hear. I just have a Weber kettle right now but once I have a smoker or pellet grill I’m gonna try and celebrate by smoking one of these. Will be fun
Best steaks in the world are Vacio. And we in the USA grind it up into hamburger... Interesting about smoking it, but try it as a steak. Looks like it would be the toughest piece of meat, but it's so tender and good. I'm glad I can get it in Chicago, and is my go to steak.
Tapabarriga is the name in Chile and other places in southamerica. I've tried and its fantastic. There's another one that it's awesome too: Tapa de bife o Plateada. Should try.
I have a Vacio from Porter Road headed my direction. Thank you for the link, the discount, and the video. I can't wait to try it. I do have couple questions before I smoke it. 1) You said the meat is made up of 3 muscle groups. With fat on both sides, how do you tell the direction of the grain so that you can cut it correctly after it's done? 2) Related to the 1st question, I am doubting this will fit on my inexpensive electric smoker without cutting in half. Do you have any suggestions on where to cut? 3) What's your opinion on freezing whole raw brisket? I have a choice in the freezer now, Vacio on the way, and Costco has a great sale on Prime.
I ordered a vacio from Porter Road based on this video; I cooked it the same way that Jeremy did, except I used my Recteq pellet grill, and I kept it warm for 26 hours in 145-degree sous vide. I didn't expect mine to be half as good as Jeremy's, based on how my briskets compare to his 😆, but on the contrary it looked nearly identical. VERY juicy, and VERY tender! It was a lot of fun to try, and I'm happy that I did it. I also ordered a couple of beef bellies at the same time to minimize the shipping expense, so those are coming up next . . . . Thanks for the inspiration, Jeremy!
That looks delicious. There seem to be a number of Argentinian beef cuts that are not used in the US that are delicious. This piece of meat is totally self-basting. At $215 it's a big purchase for the non-enthusiast, but it is a large cut and may be better value than brisket - I haven't done the math yet.
Totally. It only makes sense if it makes sense for you. A creekstone prime brisket of the same size is $185. The cattle Porter road does not select from the herds they use get sent to creekstone. Are meat prices too high? For sure. Then again I don’t think I’ll ever buy creekstone prime briskets for $2.99/lb again. Those were the days
Man, you're making me crazy by squeezing the juice out of it like that. Everything I've been told NOT to do is that. I've got to get my hands on a Vacio now for sure. Thanks for this video.
Jeremy, this dang thing looks insane! Though it kills me to see you squeezing out all that juice! OK, you've convinced me I'm going to order some meat from Porter Road. My local butchers will start carrying this cut in 2-3 years... Like the Picana that was relatively impossible to purchase locally until very recently. Great vid, really enjoyed it and I'm looking forward to the direct grilled version "coming soon" :)
Porter Road is stupid. It's hideously expensive. Idk anyone who would be stupid enough to actual order from them. Who the hell is paying $19 for 1LB chicken breast? Costco sells Picanha and it's my wifes favorite and it was cheaper on Meat N' Bone.
I always wait for you to turn to the left after the taste. That’s how I know it’s amazing! I can’t wait to find a butcher who will do this for me. Cheers.
I don't know if I missed it because I haven't see all of your videos. But I sous vided an eye of round last week and I think it would make an excellent bbq meat. You should test it if you haven't
I get the price but I think we could look at it as an experience in in of itself. Get yourself a few buddies, split the cost and at 14-15lbs should be enough to enjoy as a group. Definitely will try this in the summer 🔥
I've been watching you ever since you first got started on youtube and stopped teaching I have learned a lot and now I can cook a brisket as well as you can and this experiment that you just did intrigues me so I ordered that cut of meat right away thank you for the information and keep it up larry
Ok, so watched the video, got my Vacio and trying to get the timing right. You mention at 7 hours it was close to maybe wrapping. Then it was wrapped and held in the warming oven. I have the meat (mine is 16.5lbs), the holding oven and the time. Should I plan this like at 20lb brisket and target about 15H before rest and a 8 to 10 hour rest? It was a big piece of meat and a big time investment. Just don't want to get the basic timing wrong.
As an argentine I approve of this cook, but like you said, we don't smoke it. We grill it (asado) or even in the oven. Hey, if you are ever near Abilene, tx, cook one for me. I am curious about how a taste smoke instead of grill. BTW, I love your knowledge. I wish I could smoke like you. If you ever have classes, let me know.
My guess is this will start showing up in Texas then resturants then the competition circuit. I bet it is also super exspensive and will only go up as it becomes more popular.
Fantastic video, you never mentioned a price on something like that. I have a big family and well let’s just say big bbq is right up our alley. And did you build a barbecue hut?? When did this happen? I love your videos and refer to them often. Nice work, cheers 🍻
When I dont do brisket im still a big fan of getting the biggest chuck roast I can find for $25-$28 and smoking it like a brisket. Cant justify $200+ for a slice of meat. Thats almost half our monthly food budget for my family of 4 😂 That video you did on the chuck was a game changer for me, sometimes its good to do a pot roast but I mostly like smoking them after that video
Not sure if you've done this yet, but would love to see an experiment on the longest time you can safely "hold" a brisket for. I considered doing a 20hr hold during Thanksgiving last year but didn't want to risk it 😬
So I’m planning on smoking one of these for a fried that is going to pay for it. I have a Recteq 1250 pellet grill and a smoke tube to add a bit more smoke during the cook. My plan is to use either Smokin’ Pecan pallets or B & B Post Oak. I’m thinking 225° to start with the vacio placed on the upper shelf and the smoke tube filled with a mix of pellets and oak chips placed on the back wall mid chamber. I’ll also kick it up to 250° a few hours in. Just a few questions… how long did it take to reach ~170° when you wrapped and then about how much longer did it take before you pulled it to rest? I will wrap in butcher paper with smoked wagyu tallow and plan on resting in my oven set to 150° for at least 5-6 hours. Just trying to figure out a good starting time. I don’t want to screw this up for my friends. Thanks
That is called a beef rib cap roast or a rib plate roast it is mostly used in making ground beef and you can get meat for stir fry and fajitas and you can make some old timey beef jerky just to name a few just saying 😎..
Thanks for what you do and I enjoy the videos. Here in Miami you can easily find “vacio” but I don’t think it’s that big a chunk of meat, but what do I know I’m usually holding the beer and not cooking.
So I got the vacio from Porter Road. It was great. No need for tallow. But you have to do it over a roasting pan, and baste it. The fat is amazing. Also bought a pork butt. Wound up buying Porter Road via crowdfunding. Lololol
Congrats... I'm getting some popcorn now. Guga... Meat Church... Hey Grill Hey... they'll be in on this. But you started the avalanche. Well done. I am going to have to try this, but I am going to slap one on my santa maria as well.
I was wondering the same. With that many muscles …. Did you eventually separate the three muscles or are the tender enough cooked this way that it doesn’t matter.

Looks phenomenal, bet it tastes amazing. For $210 bucks though I think I'll stick to the high rising cost of brisket which is still half the price.
Yeah. Definitely not knocking it but as a journeyman smoker, with a limited budget, I couldn't take the risk messing something that expensive up😅
I always wait for you to turn to the left after the taste. That’s how I know it’s amazing!
I can’t wait to find a butcher who will do this for me. Cheers.
Mind blown. You're a pioneer bbqer my dude!
I don't know if I missed it because I haven't see all of your videos. But I sous vided an eye of round last week and I think it would make an excellent bbq meat. You should test it if you haven't
I just ordered one. You made it look to good so I have to try it myself.
I get the price but I think we could look at it as an experience in in of itself. Get yourself a few buddies, split the cost and at 14-15lbs should be enough to enjoy as a group. Definitely will try this in the summer 🔥
I've been watching you ever since you first got started on youtube and stopped teaching I have learned a lot and now I can cook a brisket as well as you can and this experiment that you just did intrigues me so I ordered that cut of meat right away thank you for the information and keep it up larry
Mexico loves this cut mainly seen in Mexican cattle ranches.
That Vacio looks amazing! Great video.
Looks good 👍🏽
Ok, so watched the video, got my Vacio and trying to get the timing right. You mention at 7 hours it was close to maybe wrapping. Then it was wrapped and held in the warming oven. I have the meat (mine is 16.5lbs), the holding oven and the time. Should I plan this like at 20lb brisket and target about 15H before rest and a 8 to 10 hour rest? It was a big piece of meat and a big time investment. Just don't want to get the basic timing wrong.
As an argentine I approve of this cook, but like you said, we don't smoke it. We grill it (asado) or even in the oven. Hey, if you are ever near Abilene, tx, cook one for me. I am curious about how a taste smoke instead of grill.
BTW, I love your knowledge. I wish I could smoke like you. If you ever have classes, let me know.
Yesssss! Looked awesome. Want to see it on the Santa Maria!
LOL You know the food is good when he leans to his left after the bite. Keep up the 🔥! Always great content on this channel
Ordered one, looking forward to giving it a go!
How much did it run?
I thought for sure that when you did the first temp check you'd rotate it 180 degrees, or possibly put some foil on the 130 degree thin part.
My guess is this will start showing up in Texas then resturants then the competition circuit. I bet it is also super exspensive and will only go up as it becomes more popular.
Fantastic video, you never mentioned a price on something like that. I have a big family and well let’s just say big bbq is right up our alley. And did you build a barbecue hut?? When did this happen? I love your videos and refer to them often. Nice work, cheers 🍻
It's $215 for 14.5 to 15.5 lbs or about $14/lb.
Awesome thank you. Not a bad price for that cut
Looks like the best fajitas I’ve ever seen smoked
When I dont do brisket im still a big fan of getting the biggest chuck roast I can find for $25-$28 and smoking it like a brisket. Cant justify $200+ for a slice of meat. Thats almost half our monthly food budget for my family of 4 😂
That video you did on the chuck was a game changer for me, sometimes its good to do a pot roast but I mostly like smoking them after that video
We live in Mexico. Vacio is a great cut!
This was the most enticing cut I've seen you cook. What is the comparative cost (whole brisket - vacio) per pound?
Any Recommendations for using a pellet grill to cook this meat?
Not sure if you've done this yet, but would love to see an experiment on the longest time you can safely "hold" a brisket for. I considered doing a 20hr hold during Thanksgiving last year but didn't want to risk it 😬
Sweet video brotha, gonna have to give that vacio a try. What type of warmer was that that u got the vacio out of?
Great show us a piece of amazing meat that we can't get! Super!
So I’m planning on smoking one of these for a fried that is going to pay for it. I have a Recteq 1250 pellet grill and a smoke tube to add a bit more smoke during the cook. My plan is to use either Smokin’ Pecan pallets or B & B Post Oak. I’m thinking 225° to start with the vacio placed on the upper shelf and the smoke tube filled with a mix of pellets and oak chips placed on the back wall mid chamber. I’ll also kick it up to 250° a few hours in. Just a few questions… how long did it take to reach ~170° when you wrapped and then about how much longer did it take before you pulled it to rest? I will wrap in butcher paper with smoked wagyu tallow and plan on resting in my oven set to 150° for at least 5-6 hours. Just trying to figure out a good starting time. I don’t want to screw this up for my friends. Thanks
Another great video. Thank you!
You had me at Flank/ Skirt/ Bavette 🤯🤯🤯
What temp would you cook this cut of meat to if you were cooking over open fire?
That is called a beef rib cap roast or a rib plate roast it is mostly used in making ground beef and you can get meat for stir fry and fajitas and you can make some old timey beef jerky just to name a few just saying 😎..
I’ve found a local supplier here in Australia :). Looking forward to seeing your next cook where you grill it.
Im curious what temp you ended up at and about how long it took to get there...
Effing nice job tho bro...looks amazing!
Thanks for what you do and I enjoy the videos. Here in Miami you can easily find “vacio” but I don’t think it’s that big a chunk of meat, but what do I know I’m usually holding the beer and not cooking.
So I got the vacio from Porter Road. It was great. No need for tallow. But you have to do it over a roasting pan, and baste it. The fat is amazing.
Also bought a pork butt.
Wound up buying Porter Road via crowdfunding. Lololol
Looks amazing. Would love to try it!
I'm calling my guy, Eddie the Butcher tomorrow. Love your channel, keep 'em coming!
AWESOME video thank you
I have a request:
Would you consider cooking a whole boneless beef
shoulder clod?
Love the show, awesome new piece of meat. Maybe less than twenty redundant juices closeups 😂
Awesome stuff, went to Argie recently and I'm loving these vids!
Awesome! It’s a wonderful food culture
Great episode 🎉
Jeremy just found out his channels new path! Travel the world ---> come back and add a Texas BBQ twist to it. 🎉
Congrats... I'm getting some popcorn now. Guga... Meat Church... Hey Grill Hey... they'll be in on this. But you started the avalanche. Well done. I am going to have to try this, but I am going to slap one on my santa maria as well.
Very interesting.
How many different directions did you have to cut the meat on order to cut across the grain?
All the best.
JT
I was wondering the same. With that many muscles …. Did you eventually separate the three muscles or are the tender enough cooked this way that it doesn’t matter.
How about a Chuck Roll? I think Chuck has more flavor than brisket so why not do a long slow cook like it was a brisket and see how it tastes?
Nice clean burn
