How to smoke Brisket, Pork, & Chicken | Barbecue 101

Thanks to Traeger for sponsoring today's special episode! Check out their wood pellet grills at https://www.traegergrills.com/ethan as well as their YouTube channel for recipes and tips: https://www.youtube.com/user/TraegerGrills

The purpose of the video is to give you a fundamental understanding of smoked barbecue. Barbecue is one of those foods where it seems like everyone is saying 'XXX is the best method, sauce or dry rub'. So what I hoped to do with this video was help us understand things like how does smoke work? Why does slow-cooked meat have such a great texture? Why people do wrap their brisket? Why mustard is added to ribs before a rub or why people spritz their brisket while it's cooking?
