Bend the brisket ✅

We need this oil sprayer too

I’ve cooked brisket professionally for thousands of people and that’s not remotely true… The thicker and fattier the Brisket, the more tender. The thin ones dry out to easy. Mind your temps and know the process. That’s all…

Good to know!

In all my years smoking meats, I've never heard this. Would love to know the reasoning or science behind this claim. And no, I do not know all there is to know so I'm not trying to come off as being snooty.

I’ve been discussing this at length with my mother and we’re thinking that it might have something to do with how tender the meat is?

Hard to bend meat comes from distressed animals. Soft meat comes from animals who died peacefully. Same thing happens in hunting. You don’t want to kill a deer that was hopped up on adrenaline and kill him while he’s highly agitated. The meat comes out gamey and tough

Interesting take!

Holy shit dude

Been smoking briskets for 10 years and only once I use that method. I look for a thick end in the flat. I want that end of the flat to be about an inch and a half.
