Texas BBQ does vary upon where you are at in the state, but it is obviously more beef inspired. We simply have more cows than pigs. The Southeast portion of the US has more pigs than cows. It isn't rocket science.

A typical plate will look like this: beef ribs, brisket, sausage, pinto beans, white onion, peppers, pickles, potato salad, white bread. Hell, you'll occasionally get some fresh, homemade tortillas from time to time. We offer sauce, but it usually comes unaccompanied.

The Dixie states - Tennessee in particular - make some fantastic, whole hog bbq. That stuff is tough to beat. As long as it isn't drowned in sauce, man....I'd be just as happy with whole hog bbq sandwiches, ribs, bbq beans, and cornbread.

No. Wrapping it because it gets all the smoke it wants or needs in 4 hours.

Also - the wood is different. The places around me focus more on mesquite (some pecan). Mesquite has a thick, smoky, distinct flavor.

The Dixie states, I assume, use hickory? No?

You're wrapping it because it's easier and cuts the cook time from 12 hours to 4 hours. Come on. My entire premise is that people in Texas do it better, and you're telling me you do it an easier way and that it makes no difference. Clearly you've never tasted the difference, since in Mississippi people don't do it the right way. Which is entirely my point.

Depending on the size of the brisket, it can take addition 4 to 6 hours of wrapped time to reach 200 internal.

I'm confused why you're still arguing and saying dumb things.

I don't think he is saying he is only doing 4 hours but adding 4 hours to the 12. At least that is what I took away from his post.

Wrapping brisket in foil helps you power through the stall. It doesn't slow down cooking. It's called the Texas Crutch for a reason. If he's somehow using it to slow down cooking time, he's cooking it so improperly, I don't even know where to begin.

Watch Aaron Franklin's 3 part series on brisket. It's well worth your time.

The Cook

The Payoff

If no one wants brisket, as you say, why would a BBQ establishment waste 12 hours to smoke it?


Because they are in business to smoke meat and sell food. you do get how restaurants operate, dont you...

It takes a lot of management and based on humidity and cut it needs to be managed and prepped differently. Why would the BBQ places all over the region where brisket isn't popular have the knowledge and experience to do it the right way? They wouldn't.

Four hours unwrapped plus 4 to 6 wrapped adds up to 8 to 10. Plus 2 hours in the ice chest (continues to cook and reabsorbs moisture) gets up to 10 - 12 hours.

I do. Regions where meat is cheaper and more prevalent, people have more knowledge of how to cook it, and consumers are used to it... generally do it better. Texas does brisket better. Dixie does pork better. Hong Kong does Dim Sum better. Spain does tapas better. Maryland does crabcakes better. This isn't rocket science.
