Harry is an absolutely wonderful teacher. I am about to smoke my first brisket tomorrow and came across this video. I will use his technique, and can’t wait to smoke it on my Camp Chef Woodwind with Sidekick. Great video!!!!
I could listen to Harry all day. I so admire someone who is so ready to tell you how to be as successful as he. He is a genius God Bless Harry Soo. Thanks Mr. Maniac for this vid.
Meathead, I totally agree. Harry, I totally agree. LOL. Just kidding, man. I thought you did a great job. I would have cut my hand off trying to talk while I was explaining all this. I really appreciate you sharing all this.
Fantastic information! It’s always incredible when a pitmaster of that caliber shares his secrets. Thanks for capturing that and producing awesome content from it.
On a comp trim brisket.....is fat cap always left on the bottom of the flat or more aggressive trims remove it and season both sides of the flat as well for more bark on your slices Love the video
Great video! i just trimmed a SRF Wagyu brisket about 15 minutes before this video posted and it looks like I did a pretty good job! Picked up a few things so I'll probably go back and trim it a little more.
Great vid can’t wait to see the rest of it . And to those who say vids are too long they’re wrong and that’s being polite! I would love to see them whole as they were shot but that’s just me a big bbq fan . Keepem coming Justin !
You did a great job showing the prep part. I'm glad you are doing different videos showing the parts of the cook. Man, that was a fantastic day hanging out with you, James, and Kenneth, ......and Harry too!! LOL
I was glad to see the later comments on saving the trim for sausages. When the very aggressive trimming was occurring I couldn't help but cringe, thinking of all the waste I was watching. Happy to see that wasn't the case after all.
i just bought a whole prime brisket at my local Costco (located in San Diego California) for 45$ its about 13.5 pounds. they also have prime tri-tip its delicious!
Another great video. Glad I cook for friends and family, not competition, as my wife would shoot me if I trimmed that aggressively. Looking forward to the cook video...
I watched a few of the videos of the day that Harry went over to Justin's house. It was painful to see so much trim on a premium meat, which is due to Harry's competition style of trim and the goal of meeting the stringent time of cooking in 4 or so hours. I am a rookie and haven't really grilled seriously as of yet, I've watched many videos from what seems to be reputable people on how to get into this game. My questions are: Would you be able to please do a very detailed, concise video of how to do a trim that preserves most of the brisket as to get a bigger return on your investment? Another words, not competition trim but a backyard trim. and then, after that, could you still take that same meet and do the hot and fast technique, and if so, how so? And then....😂 How would you take that same meat and do low and slow? And then, what are the pros and cons of doing hot and fast vs. Low and slow? could you get the exact same experience result with a hot and fast technique that you would get out of the low and slow technique? I am so stoked for all that I'm learning. Thank you to all you guys for sharing your wealth of knowledge.
Thank you, gentlemen. Is there a video that pits against each other a Hot-n-Fast versus a Low-n-Slow brisket and do a blind taste test? 🤣 As a rookie, I seem to not perceive a difference. Which would you personally prefer? L-n-S / H-n-F? Does one taste better? Keep inspiring people, gentlemen. Great content all around. Love it.
KALEL KALEL there are passionate BBQ folks on both sides of H-n-F and L-n-S. It does not matter as both methods win GCs. The key question is what works best with your style of cooking. After you swing a golf club 10,000 times, you know what works for you versus watching a Tiger Wood video and trying to guess what golf clubs you should buy. Don't over think it. Just go out and cook and have fun. You're missing out agonizing over theory! GET OFF YOUR BUTT AND COOK! :-)
That was great! I did a SRF last week trying to use Harry's tips (and his rub) and it was a home run... But I cooked it the low and slow way. Can't wait for the next video. BTW... No injection?
I just got a steal on a snake river farm wagyu brisket! The butcher I go to accidentally priced it at 6.99 a lb when they made the labels lol. He said, oops and too late to change labels now since he placed them out.
Great looking video Justin. The guy in red shirt talks too much. Tell him to shut up and cook so these videos run a lot shorter. The videos on the red shirt guy's channel actually run 50 mins long. Gawd! LOL!
lol. Harry, this was good info. I honestly thought I've heard it all, but every time I watched the video while editing it I picked up on something new. Great job.
Hey Harry. I grew up next door to you in Pomona California and was always in trouble, in and out of jail, all things gang related and really never had any sense as a youth. I was 13 years old when I went away to California Youth Authority on a 5 year term for being completely stupid. Didn't have a father and mom was a bad influence herself. I was screwed. It took a couple more prison terms as an adult and 2 boys of my own to turn my life around and finally man the eff up. I'll be 39 after Christmas and I'm proud to share that I've found the smoke bug a few years back. My sons seem to enjoy the process with me ( ages 15 and 10 ) and it really gives us time to bond. I get my oldest to put down his phone, which is no easy task, and he loves getting the charcoal started. Smoking is not only a great stress relief but it's an opportunity for me to connect with my boys and show them that with patience and a plan that great things can be achieved- like a pork butt! 🤣 Love your videos Harry and keep on talking because I'm listening!
Nick, My wife had half the neighborhood over about an hour after everybody left. We have a “meat list” which is named that for obvious reasons… It was used hard that day.
Wow, I know I've said this before but what an amazing ride you've had and taken us on since you've started creating UA-cam videos. You've gotten to hang out with some legendary UA-camrs, you were hired by ABC, got to go on a road trip and see n share an awesome eclipse with us, speak to the president of Weber (and got a free grill from the man!), got renamed Jason and now your hanging out with Harry at your house, learning from a champion! Man, did you ever think sharing your love of bbq with some random people on UA-cam would ever lead to this?! Dont forget us little people when you get your own show on food network! Hey, I know this is random but... Have you ever thought about getting some of your baby back maniac shirts to sell? I would love to have one. I have almost warn my patriot bbq shirt out and I need a baby back maniac one to represent and spread the love of your channel. -Cheers
Rusty, you’re the best. Seriously you Just summed up my UA-cam experience perfectly. It blows me away to think of how much has changed. UA-cam is really open doors. Thanks for the reminder buddy. I’ll probably get shirts at some point. I’m not sure when because I’m short on time. When I get them, I’ll send you one for free.
Baby Back Maniac JUSTIN, that has made my entire day, week month year etc.! Man I would appreciate that and wear the heck outta it! From the bottom of my heart, thank you!
Well now you do. LOL. Get it market trimmed Versus packer trimmed. It won’t be perfect but it’ll be good enough that you won’t have to trim it at all if you don’t want to.
Well we did save it. That said, He told you it was a waste. But those guys are out in the middle of nowhere for the weekend and they’re trying to put together six perfect bites. It’s a different goal than feeding people.
Awesome video but a bit I cringed a few times seeing how much meat he was taking off of that brisket. But it’s a not a yeild brisket it’s a comp brisket
California flag on one shoulder, US flag on the other...probably not the best shirt for competing in free states. Thanks for the video. I'm a bbq noob, but so far I've had better results with more fat trimmed and shorter cook times on Costco prime brisket.
Harry is an absolutely wonderful teacher. I am about to smoke my first brisket tomorrow and came across this video. I will use his technique, and can’t wait to smoke it on my Camp Chef Woodwind with Sidekick. Great video!!!!
Sounds like fun. Have a great weekend.
It's crazy how this guy has no dull moments. Literally talks the whole time and for some reason I keep listening.
I could listen to Harry all day. I so admire someone who is so ready to tell you how to be as successful as he. He is a genius God Bless Harry Soo. Thanks Mr. Maniac for this vid.
My pleasure.
This dude is the chillest pitmaster I've ever watched.
Holy COW - That guy Harry, is crazy knowledgeable
Yeah he’s been around the horn a few times in BBQ.
So cool Harry Soo. So sweet. I loved watching him on BBQ pitmasters.
Yeah he was one of my favorites. Thanks for watching, Stephanie.
Harry soo is on now on BBQ pitmasters
Harry is a bad-ass! I learn so much from him. :)
EDIT: People who complain it's too long can go pound sand. This video was incredibly educational!
Awesome video Justin! Three pros in front of the cameras and two pros behind the cameras. Really great job. I still can’t believe Harry’s energy!
Me neither. He is a ball of energy. And yes it was great to have such talented people around.
Harry is a Class act. He is a very Good teacher
MeatHead he talks too much!
Meathead, I totally agree.
Harry, I totally agree. LOL. Just kidding, man. I thought you did a great job. I would have cut my hand off trying to talk while I was explaining all this. I really appreciate you sharing all this.
Fantastic information! It’s always incredible when a pitmaster of that caliber shares his secrets. Thanks for capturing that and producing awesome content from it.
Thanks man. Love you enthusiasm and it’s really appreciated.
Good stuff Justin. Harry is so entertaining with his knowledge.
I know, right? He’s really good at what he does.
I love this. Tackling my first brisket in a week and a half, and I'm looking forward to using this as my guide. Keep producing quality content!
Will do, Christian. Thanks
On a comp trim brisket.....is fat cap always left on the bottom of the flat or more aggressive trims remove it and season both sides of the flat as well for more bark on your slices
Love the video
U guys rock... Don't stop Harry..
Great video! i just trimmed a SRF Wagyu brisket about 15 minutes before this video posted and it looks like I did a pretty good job! Picked up a few things so I'll probably go back and trim it a little more.
Well that was perfect timing then wasn’t it? Ha ha
Great vid can’t wait to see the rest of it . And to those who say vids are too long they’re wrong and that’s being polite! I would love to see them whole as they were shot but that’s just me a big bbq fan . Keepem coming Justin !
Thanks man. I originally wasn’t going to run with this footage but I decided to because I know some people will like it.

KALEL KALEL yes, I have some backyard brisket video for yield
3 hour argument on methods
Jerry Springer style arguments.
Thank you, gentlemen.

Nope
Very informative. Thank you for making this!
My pleasure. Thanks for watching
Where was the ridge on the fat side of the point? I didn’t see that and I always struggle with what to do there...
I’m sorry I don’t know quite what you’re asking. Can you give me a timestamp? And an exclamation further. Thanks
Fantastic ❤️Thank You for this great Lesson
I am glad you enjoyed it
Wow Learned a Lot!
I just got a steal on a snake river farm wagyu brisket! The butcher I go to accidentally priced it at 6.99 a lb when they made the labels lol. He said, oops and too late to change labels now since he placed them out.
Niiiice
Great Video! 👍👍👍
Thanks, Big Cano!
What type of knife is being used?
We range 3.50 to 3 80 at our Costco
What part of the country?
What part of the country?
Oregon
Great looking video Justin. The guy in red shirt talks too much. Tell him to shut up and cook so these videos run a lot shorter. The videos on the red shirt guy's channel actually run 50 mins long. Gawd! LOL!
Thank you for sharing, BBQ grills the world over are improving the back yard BBQ. You've created a plethora of happy in-laws and poker buddies
lol. Harry, this was good info. I honestly thought I've heard it all, but every time I watched the video while editing it I picked up on something new. Great job.
This is incredibly clever, Buddy. Thanks for watching and paying so close attention.

Love your videos Harry and keep on talking because I'm listening!
Love seeing a professional in action! More videos like this will be greatly appreciated.
if you make the sausage. Take that tendon out as well.
You go fella
Thanks man
Flys landing all over the meat is good for flavor also ... Lol
How many smokers and grills have you paid for out of pocket and how many donated.
I've bought more than I can count and have been given a small handful. Thanks for watching.
Great video! That is a ton of meat! Holy Cow! My only question is who ate all of that meat? That would feed an army!
Nick,
My wife had half the neighborhood over about an hour after everybody left. We have a “meat list” which is named that for obvious reasons… It was used hard that day.
Awesome thanks! Just ordered some of Harry Soo's rub! Will be here Monday for my Tues night cook! Got a 15 lb prime.
Wow, I know I've said this before but what an amazing ride you've had and taken us on since you've started creating UA-cam videos. You've gotten to hang out with some legendary UA-camrs, you were hired by ABC, got to go on a road trip and see n share an awesome eclipse with us, speak to the president of Weber (and got a free grill from the man!), got renamed Jason and now your hanging out with Harry at your house, learning from a champion! Man, did you ever think sharing your love of bbq with some random people on UA-cam would ever lead to this?! Dont forget us little people when you get your own show on food network!
Hey, I know this is random but... Have you ever thought about getting some of your baby back maniac shirts to sell? I would love to have one. I have almost warn my patriot bbq shirt out and I need a baby back maniac one to represent and spread the love of your channel. -Cheers
Rusty, you’re the best. Seriously you Just summed up my UA-cam experience perfectly. It blows me away to think of how much has changed. UA-cam is really open doors. Thanks for the reminder buddy.
I’ll probably get shirts at some point. I’m not sure when because I’m short on time. When I get them, I’ll send you one for free.
Baby Back Maniac JUSTIN, that has made my entire day, week month year etc.! Man I would appreciate that and wear the heck outta it! From the bottom of my heart, thank you!
You bet. It may be a while. If I forget, remind me. Thanks for your support, Rusty.
Just watching all of that cutting makes my arms hurt! LOL Interesting video though. I know nothing about cooking brisket!
Well now you do. LOL. Get it market trimmed Versus packer trimmed. It won’t be perfect but it’ll be good enough that you won’t have to trim it at all if you don’t want to.
Costco in the U.K. Doesn't do brisket anywhere near that big WOW
Interesting. I'm not sure how they would be any smaller unless they cut them up or separate the point from the flat.
Awesome
Thank you.
i like long videos
Good to know. A few people said that
than you!!!
You're welcome!
How dont u know what kind of knife u are using
Thomas Pierson I’m sorry, what?
I cant believe he tosses all the trim of the wagu and prime. Why not save it and grind it for sausage or burgers?
Well we did save it. That said, He told you it was a waste. But those guys are out in the middle of nowhere for the weekend and they’re trying to put together six perfect bites. It’s a different goal than feeding people.
Awesome video but a bit I cringed a few times seeing how much meat he was taking off of that brisket. But it’s a not a yeild brisket it’s a comp brisket
Javier Diaz pot roast, beef stew, beef stroganoff
Rock on Harry. Don't cut yourself trimming that load of meat, Kenneth. :-\
LoL i was not gonna test that theory
LOL
thank you!!!!!!!!
SLAP YO DADDY!!!!
California flag on one shoulder, US flag on the other...probably not the best shirt for competing in free states. Thanks for the video. I'm a bbq noob, but so far I've had better results with more fat trimmed and shorter cook times on Costco prime brisket.
Me too
Japanese beer and massaging is the reason the cows from japan,dont thrive here in the states.
No
No?
Sorry I don't know how that happened.
No worries
