    Bro, that is a beautiful bark on the brisket for a pellet grill. The fat is well rendered and it's super juicy. The key to getting good bark on a pellet grill brisket is the overnight cook on low temps. Good job my man, impressive results too.

    Very nice! I'm going to try using a binder on my next brisket, the last one was good on my traeger but didn't develop the bark like I wanted. I think that might have been a big difference maker.

    • @LiftoffBBQ
      @LiftoffBBQ  Рік тому

      I’ve used binders before but I think the real difference maker was the time. Using a low temp gave me a ton of smoke since the fire burns less efficiently than a higher temperature on this smoker.

    Wow that bark was amazing. Is it possible to get that brk using that technique on any pellet grill or is that because the type of pellet smoker you have?

    • @LiftoffBBQ
      @LiftoffBBQ  Рік тому +1

      I just made another video with a different pellet smoker using that same technique and it turned out equally awesome! From my experience , the time at a low temp is the most important on a pellet grill to get the best bark. They generally burn more efficiently than an offset smoker so you have to cook the brisket at a lower temp to get a bit “dirtier” smoke for the best bark development. Thanks for watching!

    New sub here…dammm that bark looks legit afff! I have a 4 series Pit Boxx vertical smoker and I can never get bark like that. Tried slow long cooks but nothing ever comes that close. I see u rocking Texas! I’m down in Corpus. You ever do comps?

    • @LiftoffBBQ
      @LiftoffBBQ  Рік тому

      Yeah this is definitely the way to get it done if you’re not using a stick burner. I haven’t done any competitions yet but maybe some day. Thanks for watching!

    • @LiftoffBBQ
      @LiftoffBBQ  Рік тому

      Thanks! Probably around 8-10 hours since I let it go overnight at that temp before turning it up to 225 to finish the next morning

      I just topped it up when I went to check on it. If it runs dry it’s not the end of the world on a pellet smoker, just top it up when you remember.

      Yeah probably pretty similar. I went pretty low on the temp to really help the bark develop which can be an issue on pellet smokers. Gotta work with what you got!

    hi can you tell me what rub you use on the brisket what is THAT YELLOW OR GOLD COLOR RUB

    • @LiftoffBBQ
      @LiftoffBBQ  Рік тому

      The binder was a 50/50 mix of mustard and Worcestershire sauce. The rub is a mix of pepper, salt, seasoned salt, and a few other ingredients but that was the majority of the rub. You can dial it in for whatever flavors you like. Thanks for watching!

  • @jorgesantos8600
    @jorgesantos8600 Рік тому +1

    Have you ever wrapped in butcher paper during the cook? I herd the new this is to never wrap, only when resting.

    • @LiftoffBBQ
      @LiftoffBBQ  Рік тому

      I’ve got the best luck out of my pellet smoker not wrapping it during the cook. If you cook it low (225) I find the meat doesn’t dry out unwrapped. If you are in a bit of a time crunch to get the food out then upping the temp to 250 or even 275 and wrapping after the stall can keep your meat moist.
