Smoked Brisket Point in the Pit Boss Pellet Smoker

  • Today I’m cooking a brisket point on Pit boss Vertical Pellet Smoker! For this smoked Brisket point, I'm seasoning it with Kosmo's Q Texas Beef Rub and a little bit of extra coarse grind pepper.
    I trimmed as much of the fat off of the brisket point so that our seasoning and rub could make contact with the meat and help us build up that really nice bark.
    Even though this was just the Brisket Point, you can still expect a longer cook time. this brisket flat was 6.5 pounds before I trimmed the fat and it took about 8 hours to get it probe tender. I’m using my Pit Boss Vertical Pellet smoker set at 250⁰ and I'm also using the Pit Boss Fruit wood blend pellets which has cherry wood in there and helps with the smoke ring.
    You can turn this into brisket burnt ends but we decided to just slice up the brisket and serve it alongside some baked potatoes and a salad.

      Ruby Lyas you will love your Pitt boss... I got one for my anniversary from my wife and I have done many cooks on it already... also here is a tip.. get your some baking sheets with some resting or cooling racks that fit them and cook your food on those on the grill so you don’t have to clean your grill so often... the pans will not effect your cooking at all...also if you wanna put a little char on your meat. just open the sear plate and get you some good grill marks on your food... some people wrap the drip plate with foil... but trust me wrapping with foil is a pain and it’s a lot easier to clean the pans and racks instead of the grill...also I like using the drippings for gravy ....also I do chicken every week on the grill for my wife’s salads she takes to work... done ribs and 2 inch thick steaks on it... also a lot of pork... it cooks perfect every single time.... promise you will not be disappointed....

I was wrong, I will have to try some more smoking today. I am just getting into my pit boss smoker, have a stick burner, kamado joe, and a gas grill. I have been doing a lot more on the pit boss as I learn how to get good cooks out of it.

    On beef brisket point do you cooking to 165 then let it rest and It games temperature to 200 or do you put it back on with the parchment paper and smoke it for a little bit longer and then let it rest for an hour

    • @WeekendWarriorBBQ
      @WeekendWarriorBBQ  Před 4 lety

      Hi Chris! The best advice I can give is to smoke your brisket until it has the color and bark that you are happy with. For my personal taste I find that the bark and color I like happens around the 165 temperature most of the time. Sometimes I let it go to to 170 or 175. Once I wrap it, I put it back in the smoker and let it cook until it is probe tender. Once I put it back in the smoker wrapped, I only care about tenderness. I will let it cook until it is probe tender... this could be 200 degrees, it could be 210 degrees. That is the secret. Check out this video which I think will help you a lot: czcams.com/video/hg62RUHKlkA/video.html

    • @WeekendWarriorBBQ

      The only difference will be the bark. The foil will trap more steam in there and soften the bark. Its not a bad thing in my opinion. Here is another way to do it: czcams.com/video/uTQIB8btxJA/video.html Tell chef Tom I said hello

So the flat and point are still connected on both of the halves. Ive tried to look into this on the internet but haven't really gotten a clear cut answer, can I just separate the flat and point on one of the halves and smoke them? Just thought id give it a try here and see if you had any ideas on this

    Thanks for video. I just hit my Brisket point from croud cow. I should have talked to you before I did so we could take advantage of the referral program. It came in frozen and they say cook it frozen. I'm not smoking it frozen. Did yours come in frozen? If so how did you defrost?

    Did you keep the smoker temp at 250° after you wrapped it? Just wondering if we could raise the temp to like 275 or 300 to finish it without ruining it.

      @WeekendWarriorBBQ  Před 3 lety

      Pellet smokers produce a very pleasant but mild smoke flavor. If you like a stronger smoke I recommend a charcoal smoker or an offset stick burner. If you are interested in offset stick smokers, I have a playlist on those too : czcams.com/play/PLG3LBAwfCBbwIBR1K_i6wvRuNCZtLX8sL.html

      @@WeekendWarriorBBQ I think the trade off is fair, especially with a clean smoke. I'd like to do pizzas in a vertical Smoker. what size pizza are you limited to with the 3 series (i think that's what you have). Have you ever wished there was more room in your vertical and is there anything you find trouble cooking with the space your given? Sorry for picking your brain, it's just that i've been researching for 4 months and your food by far looks the best, and relates to what I would use mine for (Wings especially, pizza, brisket, pork butt...etc). You also explain things very well because you get to the meat and potatoes (no pun intended). I've been looking at all of the PitBoss verticals because i've seen a lot of people mention they make better smokers than the horizontal "pellet grills." Sorry for the novel, Thanks in advance!

      I actually ended up buying the larger Pit Boss Series 5 last summer because the Series 3 was too small for my needs. I don’t like to run the smoker above 350 so I don’t do pizzas in there at all. I would go with the series 5 so you can fit a whole brisket in there.

    I think it was last year you did a video of smoking a brisket on your vertical. You used a binder that was for beef. A small bottle, thinking was red and white color. But it was a brown liquid and you used it as a binder. I would like to know the name of that, so I can buy it. I bought once several months ago and ran out. My wife tossed the empty bottle away before I could get another.
