You don't want to cut it with a serrated knife. Use a straight edge knifee so the meat doesn't fall apart. It's so tender you could almost cut it with a spoon.

What people tend to forget when encountering American Barbecue for the first time is that the brisket, the ribs, etc, are actually not prime cuts of meat. Barbecue is first and foremost a process to cook cuts that would, conventionally prepared, not be particularly tender or flavorful at all.

Incorrect. Brisket is definitely considered a Prime Cut of meat. In the past it was not considered that because of a lack of understanding of how to cook it. However, nowadays since people know how to cook it properly it is a prime beef choice. And that is why it is as expensive as it is.

I find this family easier and more fun to watch than Joel and Lia and some other reactors from the UK. I have seen Dawn Farmer and some of her reactions. I can't watch too much of her because of her huge fascination with Ranch dressing. It is like she has to either dip or pour ranch dressing on everything. And. The New Zealand family is the same way. People come to the States wanting to try our food, and then they go and pour something all over it or dip in something. I like the H's! They don't try and destroy good food with some kinda crap. And always remember that regardless where you are from try and support local restaurants.

In TEXAS , we do a light trim removing any excess fat not needed but leaving a Fat Cap on about 1/8 to 1/4 of the Fat Cap on for selfbasting as it cooks in the Smoker. Apply a light coat of Course Salt and Black pepper to all side of the brisket. Place it on the grill of the smoker with the FAT CAP UP and the point towards the fire and the flat away from the fire. At about 165 * F , it is going to stall , Remove from the grill and double wrap in Red Butcher Paper and place it back on the grill and insert a Temp Probe into the Point end and let it cook until the internal temp reaches 210 to 250 * F then remove from the grill and wrap it up in a clean large barh towel and place it into the bottom of a insulated cooler chest and let it rest for at least 2 hours befoe unwrapping , slicing and serving !

Howdy from Houston Texas FYI Most cut brisket down the fat line first so your left with the moist part and the lean parts then slice. 😊 Also pro tip on re heating brisket it’s ok to slice brisket when cold and fan it in a pan add a little water and heat in oven. Heats faster and leaves brisket moister. I have cooked many of brisket and always cook more than one and freeze them for future reheats. Works great. So if you cook one always cook 2 or 3 and freeze some. This way you don’t waste a good fire.

Mr H, You mentioned technique for cutting ? You've cut it 90 degrees or perpendicular to muscle fibers, and being so tender while it's still hot makes it a bit fragile. 2 tips... cut off slices cold and only reheat that as needed, and cutting slices at a shallower angle or at a bias to muscle's orientation to make it a bit less fragmented. A carving knife is hard to get clean cuts unless really well sharpened, but an electric carving knife is easy for anyone to get clean cuts with oscillating blades helping get clean tear free cuts...
