Brisket and Toppings

Method

Cooking and Assembling

  1. 1

    Prepare the Brisket

    Preheat your smoker to 225°F (107°C). Mix the smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper in a small bowl. Rub the mixture over the brisket. Make small incisions in the brisket and insert black garlic cloves into them.

  2. 2

    Smoke the Brisket

    Place the brisket in the smoker and smoke for about 10-12 hours, or until the internal temperature reaches 195°F (90°C). Wrap the brisket in foil and let it rest for at least 30 minutes.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Buns

    While the brisket is resting, prepare the burger buns by toasting them lightly on a grill or in a pan.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Sandwich

    Slice the brisket against the grain and place a generous amount on each bun. Top with dill pickles, pickled onions, a handful of arugula, and drizzle with white sauce.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve immediately and enjoy your brisket on a bun!
