TFTI BBQ goes behind Chipotle's smoked-brisket counter
The sponsored kitchen visit explains where the smoking happens, while a Cajun honey turkey video draws an even larger daily audience.
Why this story? The video is running at 83,333 views a day, 12 times its usual pace (7,028).
Chipotle’s Smoked Brisket is BACK! @chipotle #chipotlepartner #smokedbrisket #chipotle
The smoking happens elsewhere. TFTI BBQ's visit behind the Chipotle counter shows the next stage: brisket hitting the grill, getting chopped and taking a toss through sauce. This is a paid partnership with the restaurant chain, identified in the video's title.
The clip has added about 83,000 views in a day, nearly twelve times its usual daily pace. Brisket is familiar territory for this creator: a foil-boat brisket demonstration is the channel's most-watched Short. Here, though, he's working behind a restaurant line rather than at his own smoker.
His description explains that the meat is smoked off-site before being shipped to restaurants. In the kitchen, he takes a turn grilling the slices himself, then chops them before the sauced meat goes into a bowl. Garlic, cumin, coriander and chiles are among the seasonings he lists.
That distinction answers a practical question in the comments: does the restaurant smoke the brisket or just sear it? Other viewers pick up on his familiar "money" verdict, with one asking where his customary tasting sound went.
The bigger burst of viewing belongs to another cook altogether. His "Smoked Cajun Honey Turkey Breast #smokedturkey #turkeybreast #turkeyrecipe #tftibbq #texasbbq" added roughly 759,000 views over the same day, making the turkey upload the larger of TFTI BBQ's two surging videos.
