Explains why Andy’s videos started popping up for me some time back. Now a fan of both! That wagyu brisket looks amazing! Can’t wait to try one myself one day!
8:36 I can't lie, you can't just go from holding a brown cat to putting something brown inside a smoker. Nearly had a heart attack thinking you were about to cook Tibby.
I understand what you're getting at but his first test was pretty clear that wagyu still has the same issue with the particular cut, being particularly tough.
Because he and you and everyone knows that it’s scientifically impossible to make a normal brisket good cooking it like a steak he did what he could without completely clickbaiting
honestly that would just straight up not work. Making something just to test and then let it go to waste is disrespectful to the food. Atleast he tried something that produced an edible result at the end, so props to him for that. I agree its cheating but cooking a normal brisket that way would be so bad he doesn’t need to try it to know.
Chadol Baekee is a Korean bbq cut, that is thinly sliced brisket, cooked quickly. It is super tender bc of the slice! That may be a better way to cook brisket using Korean methods.
I regularly separate the point and flat, glad to see others doing it pre-cook. For us, it came out of necessity as a full brisket is just too much meat for two people to eat over a few days Your method for separation was solid. You did a great job! Typically, I'll prepare the point Texas style and the flat as pastrami. We usually render down the fat trimmings. Good video.
I once tested this as well. What I found is that the most important factor was how thick or thin the slices were cut. I was able to slice a semi-frozen brisket into very thin slices and grill them, mimicking kalbi. It can work pretty effectively, if you're so inclined. However, I'd stick to using short ribs for this type of application. Now what is fairly interesting as a steak is a pork butt steak, very tasty and CHEAP if done correctly.
It Gets under my skin how it seems most of the world can enjoy Australia's most prime beef stakes and lamb cuts at a reasonable price whilst we in Australia pay $15-$20 for one crappy tough select steak.
Your government, imo, is perhaps more corrupt than the US. Its no wonder they want to sell out to other countries while giving the shittiest treatment to their own people. Just look at that Italian premier or whatever its called, hes basically a mob boss sending secret police to peoples houses because they make him offended.
I mean, not really. Really just rich people. Like I can go to my grocery store and get American Wagyu, and some even will carry Japanese Wagyu (usually at like $200 USD per pound) from time to time and usually frozen but usually I only can get Australian Wagyu at fancy steakhouses or online for like $100 USD. It's not like we're stealing all your meat over here haha and only content creators like Max are being like handed free Wagyu. American Wagyu brisket over here is around $8-10 per pound. So still not cheap.
Former butcher here. We used to break the front quarter in such a manner that we could isolate a flat muscle underneath the scapula. Once trimmed, it was called the “surprise” in French butchery, because it could be quite tender, though coming from the shoulder. Try it.
Max, could you do a very simple very basic tutorial for cooking a normal market steak on a normal pan? I love your creative content but I would love to cook my non fancy normal steak better, so If you can make a video for that, that would be very very appreciated.
Merry Christmas, Max! I love your content and you Always make my day when you upload your videos! You’re actually one of my inspirations for culinary arts! I honestly don’t know anyone who cooks good Steak and meat like you do man! You rock!!! Merry Christmas! 🎄🎅
I'm shocked you and Andy haven't collabed, considering you both have such great love and understanding for steaks and meat cuts in general. Would love to see something along those lines happen in the future!
I’ve been marinating my brisket and putting them on coals for years now just for the taste. I use pineapple but it come out tender enough to eat but the taste!!! Thank you for showing the world this!!!
Every piece of meat this man creates is damn brilliant! I've probably watched all your videos. Keep pushing out these creative original ideas. I love to see you do a jerkey video! 👍
It's not gonna end well I've done this lol. Don't get me wrong it's good but low and slow is better it's a little tougher when you cook it like a steal.
I did something similar a while back. The grocery store had a brisket point marked down, so i cubed it into 1” cubes and seared it hot and fast in ghee. It was fricking delicious.
This is basically Korean BBQ in that the marinade is basically galbi marinade. Like galbi (short ribs) the grill method makes for a a little less tender meat compared to low and slow that both cuts are associated with. Both methods for both cuts should be delicious.
you should try to pressure cook it, our butcher shop often sells the brisket attatched to the ribs (very popular in central asian and south asian cuisine), and they pressure cook the meat in a curry like sauce, almost like braising beef but it 1. cuts the cooking time by a factor of at least 3-4 2. makes the beef way more tender 3. allows for great flavor from spices, onions, garlic, tomato paste, thai chillis etc to fully impart their flavor into the beef/sauce
I strongly recommend not adding tallow to the wrap until it's time to rest. As your video demonstrates, adding tallow too early washes off some of that bark. If you wait until the rest, you'll still get that meteorite bark.
South Americans regularly cook brisket like a steak and it comes out amazing. Lookup “granito no espeto”. The key is to use a skewer and carve out the outer crust, in thin pieces. Then each bit against the grain.
Back at the bistro we would slice our brisket about 1/2 inch to an inch thick and just slap em on the grill, high heat. No pre cooking. Grill it up and then steam it a little in the prime rib au jus. Was phenomenal and so simple.
I also made Kalbi from a flat after sous vide and then smoking and grilling. It tasted and was tender, but the texture didn’t work well for Kalbi. Great vid!
vinegar is also a great meat tenderizer since it breakdown fats from the meat and allows meat to become tender and allows your meat to stay fresh for a period of time
Nice selection of banchan to go with the brisket! Typically in kbbqs, the brisket is divided into subsections, frozen, then sliced super thin for grilling.
Eating my food while watching this. I’ve enjoyed your videos for a while even with a recent subscription just recently. As well as these experiments. Keep ‘em up and merry christmas!
as soon as you separated the point and flat all I wanted you to do was smoke the point by itself, after trimming it still had so much marbling and looked like it would be an amazing cook if smoked to 200
Your wood chopping board that u put brisket on look like it's part of your island, big anc long cutting area, how do you wash it after cutting meat on it? Thanks
I like how brisket almost demands you to make a good well-done(slow cooking FTW), but people still resist in some way. I usually approve of experiments, but this is just conceptually hilarious.
I start with a whole brisket that I dry in the wine cooler over night, cold-smoke (25C) for a couple of hours, cut into 8 chunks and put coarse pepper on, sous-vide at 56C for 48 hrs and then put for a couple of minutes in the full-power gas grill. Pink throughout inside, tender, and full of flavour. Do not trim the brisket: the fat will keep it juicy. I freeze the chunks after they cool, take them out, bring them up to 56C and have perfect and cheap steaks whenever I want them.
In Switzerland, we drop Brisket in Soup "Siedfleischsuppe". Works pretty well. Pro-Tip: Drop in a pan with blazing hot oil, set on fire for a few second on a safe place. Put out fire with a lid.
When you transitioned from you holding Tibby to you putting the flat on the grill, I thought you were still holding Tibby and putting him on the grill 🤣
Great video mate! Glad you enjoyed the beef 🥩

Not gonna lie, when you transitioned to the grill shot at 8:35, for a second I really thought you put your cat on the grill and my heart stopped.
Using wagyu for this experiment is cheating though. I would’ve like to see him try this on a regular brisket.
It ruined the whole video imo.

I agree, I've grilled brisket many times after letting it marinade. The trick is to cut the pieces right.
It's a very specific part of the brisket though.

Right. You can grill like a regular steak and then super thinly cut and dip in some ginger sauce laos style 🥲

Cooking a brisket high and fast should be considered a crime

You CAN cook a brisket to medium rare and have it good. 50hr sous vide 130F cold smoke 1hr, sear on cast iron
It's way different and you should try it
thanks for posting on Christmas and using your time to entertain us
Merry Christmas!
0:48 " Meat heaven" sounds like a dirty site.

Do you mean steak?
@@TheGoldenPhoenix yes
it ended well tho
Just pay a thousand bucks for a Wagyu brisket and voila, it works! Magic amirite
@@TheGoldenPhoenix you know damn well that's what he meant.
6:56 My ancestors are screaming at you
Love the pear/kiwi info. Definitely gonna keep that in mind next time I cook a cheaper cut
In Brazil we actually eat brikset like a steak on the grill and even like a picanha on skewers like churrasco style medium rare, yes we do that lol
Tibby says: "Give me the steak" !!!! How not to blame him!!! 😂😂😂You are both so cool!!! Your steak is really mouthwatering!!! ❤
What a fascinating way to spend Christmas.
Appreciate you spending some of it with me!
I did something similar a while back. The grocery store had a brisket point marked down, so i cubed it into 1” cubes and seared it hot and fast in ghee. It was fricking delicious.
That's the most baffling cooking method I've ever heard of. How did you think of that?
Awesome vid bro keep it up loved the thumbnail
What an interesting experiment! Never thought about treating a brisket like a steak! Great job!!
uncle roger rn: fuiyo what is that nephew max
If only this was released a couple days ago, I could have done this myself and absolutely horrified my family for Christmas dinner.
Love these experiments.
Kiwi would have worked better than pears. Learned this from a Korean lady who knows tenderness :)
8:37 … I thought he was putting his cat on the smoker 😬😬😬. 🤣🤣😂😂😂😂
I can't imagine who has the biggest bill when shopping between Max, Guga or tipsy bartender
Gugahas a whole fridge full of wagyu
At reaction first i would have thought guga, but then i watched tipsy bartenders fucking jungle juice and nope guga and max are poor in comparison.
11:43 fr. Hear that Joshua Weissman and Guga? Taste>Texture
Max: I’m gonna cook a brisket like a steak and it will still be good
Me: Yeah right
Me at the end of the video: Oh Dang!👍
The transition from holding the cat to the grill got me lol
Okay Max, gotta ask, how many times has the Vegan Teacher come after you? 😅
I swear Tibby is the most chill cat i have seen on the internet thus far.
it means he's taken good care of!
8:34 the transition from him holding tibby to him putting the brisket on the bbq had me worried that he was about to eat the cat lol.
When you were holding tibby i thought you were putting him on the grill in the next clip 😂😂
8:35 I thought the brisket was his cat for a second💀💀
Yea the second shot with the brisket marinated looked really good ngl.
I almost automatically hit the dislike for cooking wagyu as a steak 😂
The size of the piece and the slice you had makes a big difference as well. Thanks for the upload 🙏❤️
Tibby is literally the cutest. Great content btw!
This is basically Korean BBQ in that the marinade is basically galbi marinade. Like galbi (short ribs) the grill method makes for a a little less tender meat compared to low and slow that both cuts are associated with. Both methods for both cuts should be delicious.

The juicy counter was low key cracking me up
Max: Brisket is the king of barbeque.
Burgers: What about me? 😢😢😢

Interesting thought! I’d be interested in doing a side by side comparison but that does make a lot of sense
Great quality long video
Appreciate it man 🙏
if possible, you should try to sous vide a brisket to medium rare, I think that would get the best results for a medium rare brisket
shout out to tibby! Hope to see more of that furball
