- Brisket with Truth Barbeque
I've been lucky enough to build amazing relationships with some of the top pitmasters in the world. In this Meat the Masters series I have convinced them to share some of their best kept secrets with you guys.
In this episode, my buddy Leonard Botello IV, owner of Truth Barbeque shows you all his secrets to making an amazing brisket. If you are not familiar with Truth Barbecue, they are currently ranked #3 on the coveted Texas Monthly Top 50 BBQ Joints list. This is a huge accomplishment in of itself. However, when you add in the fact that Truth operates two locations (Houston & Brenham), this is an even more amazing accomplishment as it shows they have been able to maintain that craft BBQ quality while operating multiple restaurants.
Leonard doesn't hold back any secrets in this brisket video video as he shows you exactly how they make brisket at Truth on their 1,000 gallon Mill Scale offset smoker. Next time you are in Houston or Brenham be sure to stop in at one of the most amazing BBQ restaurants in the world. Pro Tip: Don't sleep on the desserts made my Leonard's Mom!

Matt, a little late on this comment but I bought a Prime brisket from Sam's Club this past weekend. Followed the advice in this video on smoking a brisket. I did the trimming, kept the trim for making homemade links...got the brisket looking smooth and ready for smoke. Rubbed it with salt, pepper and a little Lawry's seasoned salt. Smoked it on 210 overnight for about 14 hours until it hit that dark bark we all want. Internal was about 175ish. Wrapped in butcher paper cranked the heat to 300 until it finished which was around 205 or so. Let it cool to about 150 then wrapped it in cellophane and kept it in the cooler for about 3 hours. When I pulled it out to slice, it was incredible. 100% the most juicy, best bark, most tender brisket Ive ever made. Family went crazy over it for Easter Dinner. We appreciate these types of videos to educate us weekend BBQ guys how to produce great BBQ when we do get a chance to do some barbecuing. It can suck to spend all the money and time to turn out food thats not that great because you dont get a lot of time on the pit....know what I mean. Thanks Matt.
I like how humble he is and keeps hyping the staff. Thank you staff for keeping us fed.
I was just thinking the exact same thing, his humility is shining through…..
Matt, That was OUTSTANDING! You ain't kidding when you say "that is the best video you'll do all year", and I will take it a step further and say probably the best BBQ video from anyone all year! I can't thank you and Leonard enough for this video. I learned so much. It's a Brisket Master Class! It took me over 2 hours to watch that video, stopping, taking notes and rewinding. Please extend a very special thanks to Leonard for taking so much time away from his business to accommodate you for the video. Two of the nicest guys in BBQ!
Best video I've ever seen on brisket bar none. Leonard just put on a clinic of how to do it right. BBQ people are notorious for withholding information on little things that can improve your cook. I believe that Leonard held nothing back on this video. He is a tradesman of his craft. Above all Matt, thank you for producing this video and sharing your knowledge. I'll be in Church every time the doors are open and twice on Sunday!
This was the best, most informative brisket video I've ever watched. Thank you Truth for not worrying about giving away secrets.....after I spend the next 10 years trying to cook the number of briskets and gain the experience that you guys get in a weekend ...... I'll be coming for ya'. Thanks for the whole series you're doing Meat Church. Excellent content.
I would definitely have a beer with either of these dudes. Humble, friendly, passionate about their craft and putting smiles on peoples faces with good food. Cheers from Alabama fellas.
Man, 6 minutes into this and I’m scribbling notes like crazy. Thanks, guys!
I really love how you show your support to the BBQ family when you go to visit them. A chance to go behind the curtain to get a little glimpse into the efforts needed to run a BBQ business is very beneficial to the rest of us. Very helpful tips.
Leonard takes pride in EVERYTHING! I noticed at Red Dirt a few years back he even takes pride in slicing. It’s like a show!
Hey Matt, I made my third brisket ever in my life for my family using the tips on your brisket videos. I love the foil tip from Truth here and listened carefully to get tender meat and a good bark. The brisket turned out amazing, so flavorful, juicy throughout with a beautiful bark and smoke ring. Thank you for posting! Also hey Truth, I was born in Brenham, nice to see a business from there expand and do well!
Kind Regards
Matt - Keep up the excellent work. While I'm fortunate to live in this great state and be able to experience these products, you are doing a hell of a job spreading the word to everyone.
For a state that prides itself on its food, the Texas barbecue community seems very open and helpful with each other. Thanks for the insight! Can't wait to try this method as well as getting down to Houston to give Truth a whirl.
Hey Matt - I live in Oregon where brisket is an obscure meat that you get on a sandwich from a BBQ truck. Thanks for making these cooks so accessible for folks like me who aren't surrounded by neighbors to learn this from. I smoked my first brisket this weekend for my wife's birthday party and it turned out great. I will never tire of the compliments pouring down. Thanks for making it less daunting.
They absolutely live up to their name “Truth.” Hands down one of the best, if not best bbq videos I’ve watched!!!
Killer video! Thanks Matt for letting us learn how world class brisket is done
Still the most information packed video on brisket ever! Thanks again Matt!
I like how this is called "Meat the Masters". Lol you are a master!!!
I grew up near Brenham. Am a huge fan of truth! Before the Houston location was opened. Now that I work in the Houston area I constantly take customers to truth for lunches. FYI don’t leave out their deserts! The chocolate cake is dang near heaven sent! Love truth!
I ran bbq restaurants for over a decade. This dude is next level🤙this video was so fun to watch. It brought back some good memories.
Damn. Love this channel. I will be honest I did my first brisket last weekend after watching some of your videos. My buddy from Texas and my neighbor who travels to Texas to visit his kids told me it was amazing and as close as Texas can get. Keep up the amazing work and that you for your rubs and tip from these amazing cooks. NO ONE GIVES OUT THEIR SECRETS!! And you get them to talk and I am listening. "I ain't mad". Gonna keep cooking thanks to you and your amazing friends. It can only get better!! Love you guys.
This is by far the best of the Meat the Masters. Taking nothing away from the other guys, but this guybis the best!
This new series you're presenting by cooking with some very accomplished cooks, while walking through their process is absolute genius. Bravo - and I'm not mad about it.
Thank you Darrell!!
I know I am SUPER late to this party, but just for the tip on turning the spice bottle "upside down" was worth the price of admission. Absolutely great stuff!
One of the few bbq vids I've seen that tells me things I don't already know. Excellent!
As a Houstonian, we’re now blessed with so much amazing BBQ, especially compared to 10-15 years ago. Having regularly visited so many amazing places, from Killen’s to Corkscrew, to Roegel’s, Pinkerton’s, Pit Room, and on…there is something intangible about Truth’s brisket that keeps us coming back and makes it my #1 for brisket. Awesome video, even better food.
I agree!
Went to Truth last summer. Still the best brisket I've ever had.
The Meat Church due, who is a pit master himself, was so happy. He looked genuinely excited and happy. His smile says it all!
I feel so validated to finally see someone else using Saran Wrap!
Excellent video, thanks! Haven't been letting my briskets cool enough, been off the smoker right into a cooler for a few hours. Going to try this next time. Appreciate the knowledge transfer
Same!
Ditto. The last two briskets I did I waited until it was 160 and it made a big difference in tenderness.
@@Ardie321 you waited until 160 to put into a cooler? How long did it stay in the cooler once at 160F?
@@michaelcarroll5926 not sure what the exact time was but definitely at least 2 hours.
I can confirm that Truth BBQ is top3 BBQ in Texas I worked in Texas and ate BBQ every few days for a year and Truth BBQ has won me over as favorite.
Truth is the best because some Yankee thinks so?
@@SOLDOZER I’m from Oklahoma….
Foil wrapping the ends...a great tip. Wonderful video, and Leonard sharing the glory is why he has a happy, hard working crew. Thanks so much for bringing this video to light.
What a gentleman. Very informative video. Highly appreciate Leonard explaining the reasons behind his techniques! Class act acknowledging his staff.
The humility, openness and desire to help oozes from both of these guys just as much as the juice did in the 4th slice.
Thank you both!
P.S. - Matt, guess I am going to have to return my Wagu Tallow... 😀
Awesome brisket video 👍 ty both. Love how Leonard throwing kudos to his staff. You don't have a great company without great people. Damn learned alot from this cook 🍺🍻😁👍
Truth is one of my all time favorites and the video is my favorite of the year as well...you killed it Matt 😎
Franklins seating area is packed with people. Goes to show how powerful the rankings are.
I work about 1/4 mile away. Between Truth BBQ and Killiens BBQ. The smells and smoke is Great.
Thanks Matt and Leonard! I'm doing two briskets tomorrow. One for slices and burnt ends and the other to make brisket mac & cheese and Texas twinkies! I'll definitely be using a few of the tips from this video. I'm glad to see a bona-fide expert using mustard as a binder like I do. Love the tip on how to fold the wrap so I can check on the feel better! I was drooling the whole time you guys were sitting at that table at the end. I think my trip to Texas in November is going to turn into a BBQ tour and now Truth is on my list!
A solid team is definitely a huge part of the whole picture for sure!!! Great job everybody!! 💪🇺🇸💯
Screwing it up is a long but still necessary rule for those of us not making thousands of briskets . Only a weekend warrior here. I rely on you guys for advice. Thanks
Leonard dropped a ton of knowledge. Wrapping the tips is a must try technique. Wrapping in cellophane for the rest is a saver b/c I too am tired of cleaning out my yetti. LOL Love the content. Thanks Matt!
Felt like a brisket masterclass ! Loved it.
Right! Gonna try this as close as I can next smoke. Gotta get better at brisket! I've only done about five.
The average Backyard bbq’er is simply not gonna have enough cook time with briskets to learn these awesome tips from trial and error. Thx!
Brisket takes lots of practice. You're going to ruin dozens of briskets first before you "get it".
Okay now i have to fly from germany to Houston texas to eat some brisket. I never had one but it looks so damn good.
Mad respect for Truth great video Matt!
Matt I want to thank you after I found your channel I have been following your recipes exactly and doing my own thing and I can say my smoking skill has gone way up after watching and learning from you and I thank you for that this is a passion I would love to chase
Such a great episode. I love this series, great work and that brisket is making me so hungry.
Been to Truth many times. Absolutely fantastic and well deserving of their place on the TM list.
Greetings from Germany! Was in Wichita Falls long time ago. Learned how to make brisket. But now I know how to make it more perfect. Dankeschön..
This was the best episode of Meat Church I’ve seen. Wonderful. Thank you both gentlemen.
Thank you!!
Dang, now THAT is a brisket. Never used butcher paper, but I am going to give it a try.
I love learning from a real pit master
OH MY GOSH! That brisket looked outstanding! Hope one day to get down there to try it. Thanks for sharing that great information.
We ate at this location a few weeks ago and it was top notch. Short wait of about 30 minutes but well worth it. The corn pudding side dish is one of the best.
Awesome tips here!
Another Ace video. Very pleasing to watch, and to learn from the tips Leonard has given. And I enjoy watching Texas from California.
I don't comment on a lot of stuff but man...this video was so good....so much info, I've actually watched it 3 times now!! My brisket is going on tonight and I'm using some of the pointers from this vid...thanks so much!!!
Gorgeous briskets and offset in my hometown, in my old neighborhood! Thanks for doing these videos.
Our pleasure!
Thank you both for the great tips. Central Michigan here and we have such limited quality BBQ here it's sad. Tips from pros like this gives a fighting chance to make decent BBQ in the backyard. If I ever get to Texas again we'll be sure to stop by. Thanks again.
17:35 “pushes it over the edge and then you have cat food” haha love it!
The plastic wrap tip ALONE is worth gold!!
That was probably the most helpful video I’ve seen in a while. Thank you. I cant wait to try this method.
Appreciate your honesty Brad, great video. Loving your missus’s new hair do too!
That platter looked phenomenal.
Truth BBQ is hands down the best in Texas. High quality meat every visit and they’re open everyday. Shouts out to pusha man.
That's awsome. My wife and I were there that day and saw you out by the pitt.
Meat church is the goat you need to bring these back going to top places such a cool concept
My Dad got me started in BBQ. Not because we were super close at the time but because I wanted to make BBQ and he was the only person I knew that knew how to do it. My Dad was a hot and fast cooker for years. Right up until I had done all the research and testing on different methods on how to cook brisket. Today, he cooks briskets the way I do. Slow and low and cook to temp. How the student has become the teacher.
Another one to add to my list, this dude is legit, the thought he puts into it wow the knowledge gained from just this video is priceless, thanks Matt
Agreed!
If truth is number 3 I’m really wanting to see number 2 and 1.
Truths brisket is on another level!! It’s my favorite brisket in Houston.
The sides and desserts are phenomenal.
This guy is amazingly helpful and knowledgeable. Thanks for bringing us down to Truth and letting us hear from an amazing pitmaster!
My pleasure!
Amazing. The video alone produced so many goosebumps for me. I can’t wait to experience Truth for myself. Thanks, Matt, for taking us to church with Truth!
welcome!
No words needed... I felt that first bite 🔥🤦♂️
Meat Church is my Go To!! Matt you're Killin it. Thanks for everthing you do Bro!
Best Video I've seen on how to do a Brisket . . . . Period !
Great video!! So much great info! I'll be watching this 5 times to try to catch all the tips. This will actually helped me so much!!
Walked in to Brenham when they had 5 reviews in 2015, we miss seeing Leonard but still digging the food!
Truth is my favorite BBQ place. Actually sat at that very table they were eating on.
Absolutely love your videos. Please explain more in detail how to cut this brisket on the point vs. flat side, little confused here. The cutting is crucial I’m guessing. Thanks again!
I am amazed how i learn something new ever time you post a video.
That’s a huge compliment!
I’m going to do a tour of Texas and hit all these places you share. Looks amazing
Actually sitting in front of Truth rn. Food must be fantastic bc there's a 45 minute wait to get in the door at 2 p.m. on a Saturday... looking forward to it!
Just tried the ‘backhand’ technique with the rub, game changer for accurate aiming!
This man is a brisket scientist. He could teach a college course on brisket.
Love all the science he puts into the why's and how's of his craft. Great video!!
This is awesome these 2 am wakeup bbq videos help so much thank you 🙏
I’m sold. That brisket turned out great!
I watched this video for the IDK amount of times but took some notes this time. I'm going to give these tips a try!
Thank you for Brisket recepe introduced. It will definitly by add to my recepe list for party food.
I'm a Beginner. Thanks for helping folks like me
Just ate ate Truth, Houston!! Sooo good!! They speak the truth!!
Next trip to Houston gong to need to visit this place. Thanks for the video..
Thank you!! I appreciate your time and making this video! I see some mistakes I have made. Great Job!
This just puts a smile on my face....WOW
I love this channel. It’s changed up my cooking!
Love this series! So interesting and the food always looks insanely good
This guy is a master.
One thing I noticed, he said he was wrapping to protect but wanted it to take on more smoke. I didn’t think smoke could penetrate the paper.
It can penetrate paper. Can’t penetrate foil.
@@MeatChurchBBQ this is why I watch your channel. Always learning new stuff!
@@jenniferturner23 I appreciate that. I try to bring the real knowledge vs. UA-camrs that think they know….
Nice beautiful job. Lots of detail. Take notes. The only restaurant here in Grand Forks is Texas Roadhouse. I need to go there. 👍👍👍
Can't stop watching this vid for the pro tips!
