Pit Barrel Cooker Smoked Wagyu Brisket: A Delicious Treat for Meat Lovers!
Introduction
There’s nothing quite like a perfectly cooked brisket, and if you’re a meat lover, then you know that it takes certain technique to achieve that crispy and smoky flavor. In this article, we’ll be discussing how to use a Pit Barrel Cooker to smoke a Wagyu brisket. We’ll dive into the specifics of what exactly a Wagyu brisket is, the steps needed to make it succulent and tender, and equipment used to cook it.
What is a Wagyu brisket?
Before we delve into the cooking process, let’s discuss what Wagyu beef is and why it’s so special. Wagyu beef originates from Japan, where the word “wagyu” means “Japanese cow.” It refers to a particular breed of cow that is known for its high level of marbling, which translates to a more tender, juicy, and flavorful meat. In this case, our brisket comes from Wodagyu Ranch, which sells hormone-free, pasture-raised beef that is dry-aged for 21 days.
Steps to achieve a perfectly cooked brisket
Now that we have our grade-A meat, it’s time to prepare it for cooking. Here are the steps we took to create a succulent and flavorful brisket fit for meat lovers.
-
Apply the beef rub: We used a beef rub consisting of kosher salt, granulated garlic, paprika, brown sugar, cracked black pepper, and cracked white pepper. Apply it liberally to all sides of the brisket to enhance the beef’s flavor.
-
Smoke the brisket: Using a Pit Barrel Cooker, we smoked the brisket with Post Oak wood until it reached an internal temperature of 160 degrees.
-
Wrap the brisket: Once it reaches 160 degrees, we wrapped it in foil and spritzed it with a mixture of apple cider vinegar and water to make it moist before double-wrapping it.
-
Cook the brisket to tenderness: We checked for tenderness by probing its different parts and declared it done at 200 degrees.
Equipment Used
To achieve a perfectly smoked and tender brisket, we had to use the following equipment:
-
Victorinox knife: A sharp cutting knife for slicing through the brisket with ease.
-
Large cutting board: A spacious cutting board for prepping and slicing the brisket.
-
Nitrile gloves: Gloves to keep your hands clean while handling the meat.
-
ThermoWorks Smoke and Thermapen: Both tools help to monitor the internal temperature of the meat.
-
Saramonic dual wireless VHF lavalier microphone and Shure VP83 microphone: Both microphones were used to capture the sound and details of the cooking process for the video.
-
NEEWER CN-216 216PCS LED dimmable light: A lighting system to make sure that everything was well lit while filming.
