    Had the guy from the first video given that brisket to a dog tied to an egg instead of mutilating it we would never have learned the meaning of "devastated"...

    I will make a bet he is a rep for a beef company. If you believe what you see you'll buy twice as much. Mostly I feel bad for all the folks who "believed" him and then were frustrated.

    "It's just a chunk of meat and a bunch of fat" he says as he cuts off the Point.  The whole thing is a travesty by a couple of morons.

    First thing I'm going to do when I get home is hug my briskets!  Will somebody please think of the briskets!

    What you are about to see is shocking to say the least. Please never do this to your brisket. About the only thing that he got right was when he said to slice against the grain. Short of this, he is batting 0.

    I cried when @cazzy posted the video the first time. Now tonight I'm sitting here bawling because of the undeserved trauma delivered on those briskets. Someone should revoke their brisket buying licenses.

    I think my wife would punch him in the throat for throwing away all that bark, and my son would kick him in the crotch for throwing away all the fat.

    I still can't believe he tossed the entire point!! Even if he ruined the thing, which he probably did, the point would still probably be good.

    I like how he's trying to go fast too. He can't do it and I think he might cut himself when he pulls his hand away fast at the end.

    It is sad that there are people this stupid on this earth.

    If all he wanted was the flat why didn't he just buy a flat and cook it?
