    Having a food warmer for BBQ is a total game changer! I throw my brisket on at dinner time, pull it in the morning, throw it in the warmer a it comes out perfect for dinner that night. It is good that you tested this out tho. So many people do stuff because that is how everyone else does it. I stopped using binders for my meat and now I'm getting better bark.

    If a professional bbq cooks briskets daily, I highly doubt any backyard cook could tell the difference between the resting periods. But any backyard cook will benefit from a long rest, since we don’t have that daily experience of cooking briskets. Jirby says stuff he can validate, chud, mad scientist, smoke trails are setting up backyard cooks for greatest success.

    just did a cook with a 28 day aged brisket, similar to a good usda prime. Cook took 10 hrs to get to 195, pulled and held for 22hrs! ( only because of super bowl logistics). Results, still surprisingly juicy. However I think that was due to the quality of meat. After cooking about 10 briskets between an offset and WSM, I would say a Costco bought brisket is best held between 2-10 hrs max. 10 hrs only if you have trimmed and cooked it properly

    I've started cooking the day before and holding in sous vide until Lunch the next day, but that's more for convenience. If I was serving it in the evening, I'd probably let the brisket roll overnight and take off in the morning / around lunchtime until time to serve. I find this method saves me worrying about time, its done when its done, and it holds until I'm ready to serve. If it gets more tender, that's just a bonus.

    Nice job! Why no smoke on the tallow? I have seen this done. It is interesting that these long rest times all came from restaurants having to cook ahead of time in order to clear space on the smokers and be ready from the morning rush.

      Thanks, Brian! Remember the Black's video from last year? Barrett cooks his briskets the first day until the bark is set, then pulls them and refrigerates them for a day or two (a cold rest?). Then the day they want to serve them they put them back on the smoker and take them all the way to tender. The results are some of the best briskets we've tasted. Nick and I are planning to shoot a crossover - cooking it 2 stages like Barrett Black, then a long rest wrapped with tallow like Goldee's. We're probably going to break the Internet :-)

My other question is, are you putting meat side down or fat side down when resting? It appears to be meat side down. I had much more juice in my aluminum foil after resting (for 5 hours) possibly because I let my brisket rest in a cambro and not a warmer. Your thoughts? I enjoy your videos. Thanks

    I do brisket when the kids come in for a weekend or holiday. Prime Costco or splurge on a prime Creekstone farms. I do a heavy trim and grind 2-3 lbs for burgers the night before. We then fire up the WSM at 8-9 pm and smoke overnight. It’s usually done by 8. We then wrap it in towels and put it in a yeti. Ribs go on after that with some chicken shooting. 6-8 hours of rest on the brisket comes out at 140F and it’s ready! Essentially when the ribs and chicken are ready we eat! Much easier to shoot for a meal time with ribs and chicken vs a brisket. Also, you don’t have to get up at 3am to have a brisket ready for dinner.

    I've never heard anyone claim that holding a brisket is anything but a logistical decision. BBQ joints have warmers to provide product for more than a 1/2 hour window where the brisket rests to 140 on the block. I use a warmer for the same reason.

    Question for you Al- does Goldee’s temp check the briskets before putting in the warmer? The reason I ask, is I’ve found a method that doesn’t go off a 200-207° finishing temp to pop directly in the warmer. Me thinks theirs are probably around 175-180 when they build the bark and feel good on bottom before wrapping and resting. If it wasn’t rested it’d be a great flavored good year instead of the great product they serve. Great video Al. I don’t buy prime briskets any longer now that I have my methods down.

    I doubt Goldees has enough smoker space to cook briskets, chicken, turkey, ribs and whatever else at the same time... so something has to come off the smokers to make room for other meats. How many briskets does Goldees serve in a day?

  • @paulheier
    @paulheier Před 9 dny +1

    Isn't the main reason for most bbq place like Goldee's/Franklins or other bbq places to use a long rest is because they cook the brisket first, then have to get off the smokers to cook other items?

    • @BehindTheFoodTV
      @BehindTheFoodTV  Před 9 dny

      Actually the main reason is that they don't want to staff the smokers all night - it's easier to cook during the day than overnight because the staff is there anyway. The side-benefit of this method is that it makes juicier more tender brisket!

      @@BehindTheFoodTV I have a food warmer and tried 12 hour (set at 145) rest multiple times and I did not taste any different (wrapped with foil/tallow approx 12 midnight and served 12 noon). For me once at 140 I am good to slice and serve I do not think longer rest does anything. The nice thing about long rest is you can get brisket off smoker and into warmer and that part is done so you can work on other things until serving. Goldees opens on Friday morning at 11 am... what time to they put briskets in smoker? What time would they pull briskets when done to wrap in tallow/foil? If they open at 11 am thats putting the briskets in warmer at 1 am?

  • @ryangies4798
    @ryangies4798 Před 4 měsíci

    The rest time in the warmer is generally determined by the temp briskets are going in at. If I put a brisket in the warmer at 170 it’s going to take 10+ hours for it to gradually fall to 140. If my briskets come off the pit “tight” and need to render I will put them on at around 170-180 but if they’re feeling right I’ll let them come down to 150 or so on a rack… then into the warmer. The warmer is a tool, used correctly it’ll improve your skills.

    One aspect of this I feel does not get addressed enough how much better a lot of bbq food tastes the next day reheated as compared to fresh out of the smoker, similar to soups, dips, chili. I think a lot of that redistribution of flavors and mellowing of harsher flavors is happening during that long rest. And you trying the short rest along with the long rest side by side shows that this phenomena is not just because food tastes better the next day because your sinuses are no longer wrecked by all the smoke.

    Great experiment. It seems like the briskets may have been Prime, and well marbled. There is plenty of intermuscular fat that
    will spread inside the meat fibers, and make the brisket more juicy during a long rest. However if you had a Select grade brisket, once cooked to tenderness, there are not enough intermuscular fats, in fact a long rest can result in dry slices. (Unless cooked below probe tender, prior to rest.) I don't cook Select grade briskets, but did once for the purpose of comparison. If you were to repeat the experiment with Select grade briskets, slice the Select grade without any rest, and give the other a long rest, you'd be surprised to find out that the no rest brisket would be more juicy. Which must be why Snow's serves select briskets with not rest.

    Not to put too fine a point on this, but in a cooler, when you have a 13-16 pound (pretrimmed) brisker at 200, it will take at least 4 hours to come down to 140. And I hosted an event where I served 200 pounds of brisket, and had to cut some before they had fallen. Whether you rest in a cooler, warmer, oven, hot hold cabinet, etc...The thing you CANNOT do is cut while it is above 260! You lose so much steam, it is a pain in the butt to deal with burning your hands, and the meat is literally falling apart. So, more important than the length of the rest is the temp you cut it at IMO.

      The last few times, I've been doing a sorta combo. I started doing the long rests right after pulling from the smoker at finished temperature. It was a tad overdone for my liking. Then I tried Steve @SmokeTrailsBBQ 's method of pulling at 190F and resting at 150 for 8+ hours and it was amazing. THEN I tried adding the "Let it rest down to 145 before the long rest in a warmer" and it was even better. So, pull at 190, let rest on the counter for two hours or so, then into a warmer (I use my GMG pellet grill set to 150) for 8+ hours and [chef's kiss]🤌

    It was a good video about long vs short rest in general. With that being said, I don't think this test is accurate in what he was saying as he was concentrating on the temperature being a factor and not strictly time.

    You didn’t temp the brisket before cutting. The 2 hour rest brisket was probably still 180 or more since you didn’t let it rest outside of a warmer. Jirby specifically said let it come down to 140 before eating it. 2 hours in 140 oven right out of the smoker from 205’ish would not allow that brisket to cool down to 140. You can even see the steam coming out when you cut into it, meaning it’s way over 140 and never got to rest properly to its final resting temp of 140. No steam in the other one that was at 140. Good idea but needed better execution. Conclusion inconclusive for now.
