In this video, Chef Randy smokes a Prairie Street Prime kosher whole beef brisket. Whole brisket contains both the first and second cut of the meat. The first cut is the lower, leaner half of the brisket (also known as “the flat”). The second cut is laced with fatty marbling, making it more robust in flavor and seriously tender when cooked. Competition-trimmed means we’ve removed most of the outer layer of fat — which helps to create a crispy crust and maximize flavor. Our whole cut is great for smoking (barbecuing) over low heat, where it slowly builds that delicious bark and a soft, juicy interior.
