    Coarse ground pepper and Kosher/sea salt. That’s the only two spices I use for Texas style brisket. Cook at 225. If you don’t have a smoker add some liquid smoke to cook in the oven. Leave it uncovered until a bark forms. Pay attention to cut it across the grain. Cook to temperature not time. Leave it in a dry cooler an hour at least to rest.

    If you are going to do brisket without a smoker I suggest just wrapping the foil around the brisket to keep the moisture in contact with the meat. I use a smoker and after a certain amount of time I wrap the meat with butter and maybe some apple juice and when the meat rests at the end it will absorb all the liquid back into the briskit to make it nice and juicy. :)

    Meredith.. Might I suggest a very tasty dry rub that I use on Briskets, Chicken and Pork ribs.. I have been using this recipe for about 25 years, and it has proven itself over time.. Brisket Rub(Dry Rub)
    (Mild Formula)
    Ingredients:
    2 tablespoons salt
    3 tablespoons sugar
    3 tablespoons dark brown sugar
    2 tablespoons ground cumin
    1 1/2 tablespoons chili powder
    1 1/2 tablespoons black pepper -- Medium cracked
    1/2 tablespoon Cajun Seasoning
    1 teaspoon Mesquite Flavored Salt
    1 tablespoon garlic powder
    1 tablespoon celery seed
    4 tablespoons paprika
    2 tablespoons Bar B-Q seasoning
    Instructions:
    All you do is throw them together and mix them well.
    Temperature can be adjusted by adding cayenne (or your favorite pepper).
    Note: Works best on Chicken, Briskets, Beef Ribs, Pork Ribs, or Pork Chops. Not recommended as a topping for (BBHV) Blue Bell Homemade Vanilla Ice Cream.

    If the brisket gets dry...Let it cool, chop it in chunks and run it through the food processor. Warm it and add bbq sauce till it’s moist and it makes great sandwiches on hamburger buns. Add pickle, jalapeño and onions if you like.

    More rub, including all the sides, heavier foil, wrap in a towel when done so it can "rest". You are in North Carolina, everyone needs to know how to barbecue brisket! I prefer mine on the drier side, just past what a championship brisket would be in a brisket contest.

  • @twinbrooksfarm7795
    @twinbrooksfarm7795 7 років тому +2

    Just my 0.02, but your brisket is dry because there is no moisture in the oven to keep it moist. When I wrap my brisket on the smoker, I put 8-12 ounces of coke in there with it to keep it from drying out too bad. Just an idea.

    • @ThisFarmWife_
      @ThisFarmWife_  7 років тому

      That's a good idea! There was a lot of liquid in the bottom of pan when I got done cooking it, so that threw me off when I cut it and the middle was still dry. I will try adding liquid to start next time. And I realllly want a smooker! What kind do you have?

    The first time I cooked a brisket over charcoal, it was so tough that not even our friends dogs could eat it. I can't cook a brisket over charcoal - I can't control the temperature. I did a brisket in a slow cooker but it didn't have the BBQ taste that I wanted. So I bought an electric smoker. That's a carnal sin to true BBQ cooks. I've found that 40 minutes per pound at 225F on my smoker works very well. The key is to get the brisket up to 190F to make it tender. That breaks down the connective tissue making it very tender. You won't need teef to eat my beef.

    What kind of grill do you have? A Weber style kettle can be used to smoke just about anything. It doesn't have to be a Weber brand, but that's what I'd recommend. The key is that it have a high kid with vents in it, and vents under the grill. This allows air/smoke flow around what you're cooking. Here is a video that shows how to set up. This should work for any grill with a lid that lets you cook using indirect heat.

  • @kevinashby3784
    @kevinashby3784 5 років тому

    I knew your kids were at least human. Perfect but still human. Here’s a few tips from a Texas Brisket connoisseur.
    1. You’re using the flat. The leaner muscle of the two parts of the brisket. The other is the tip which has more marbling. Thus more moist.
    2. If you trimmed the fat save at least 1/4 “
    3. When we bake in the oven we normally don’t go over 3 1/2 hours @ 325 ( although I personally think that’s too hot)
    4. We wrap ours in the foil. The meat can lay in the renderings.
    5. When you get a smoker (try an offset), I would get a packer cut (both muscles) and trim the fat to 1/4l”. Cut out the deckle. It won’t render. I’ve found the best how to instructions is from Aaron Franklin on You Tube. Its simple, easy, and fantastic. I started doing it this way and it comes out great. Wrapping in brown butcher paper after about 6 hrs.
    Thanks again for sharing your your experiences.

    What is wrong with you girl? Why can't you cook a Brisket, lol? So here's my story. I decided to cook a brisket at 8PM in the offset smoker that my neighbor made for me. Apparently, this is something that the Wise do at 8AM not 8PM. As an offset cooker I didn't realize how much effort it would require to tend the smoker. Long story short - it went in oven about 1AM for Finishing. All temps met, blah, blah, blah. After resting and slicing I ended up with THE toughest piece of meat I've ever stuck in my mouth, I was SO disappointed. When I woke up my wife asked me how it came out. Turns out - she had already tasted it and knew how bad it was. I was going to throw it out but after she worked on it for 2 days in the crockpot - it was finally edible.
