Title: Awesome brisket trimming video on YouTube.
Post by: pbe gummi bear on March 19, 2020, 01:54:26 PM
Sharing this new video which I think is one of the best brisket trimming tutorials on YouTube: https://youtu.be/ONifvZMlrQk trimming a brisket can seem daunting but just remember to go slow, use a sharp knife, and make the brisket as smooth and “aerodynamic” as possible.

I think so, based on what you found in the wind tunnel, would turning the grill so the flat is into the wind be the recommended cooking position ?

Depends on the temps - at lower temps/speeds, you'll want to extend the fat flaps to near full, but at higher temps/speeds, you won't need any flaps. Also, once you reach your cruising temp of 275F, the grill attendants will come around the cabin to offer you a beverage and snack of your choice. We'll go ahead and turn that fasten seat belt sign off so you're free to move about the back yard, but we ask that if you are in your chair that you keep your seat belts fastened as unexpected temp turbulence can occur. We know you have a choice when you grill, and we appreciate you grilling with WKC grill-lines.
