Ground Brisket vs. Ground Beef: Is a Whole Packer Worth It?

Most people spend $9.49 a pound on brisket burgers at the grocery counter. I paid $4.49 a pound — by grinding a whole 16-pound packer brisket myself. In this video, I walk you through the entire process: trimming the hard fat that ruins a grind, breaking down the brisket into grinding pieces, running it through the grinder twice for perfect texture, and putting it to use three ways — smash burgers on the Kamado Joe, brisket tacos, and meatloaf. If you have never made your own brisket burgers at home, this video changes that. PAID AFFILIATE LINKS FTC Disclaimer: This video does NOT contain any paid promotion, sponsorship or endorsement.
