Sliced Cactus Jack Bbq Brisket Recipe

Directions

1. 1

   Prepare the Brisket

   Preheat your smoker or grill to 225°F (107°C). Rub the brisket with olive oil and generously apply the BBQ rub, ensuring it's covered evenly.

2. 2

   Smoking the Brisket

   Place the brisket in the smoker or on the grill. Smoke for about 1 hour per pound, or until it reaches an internal temperature of 195°F (90°C).

3. 3

   Prepare the Cactus

   While the brisket is cooking, rinse the sliced cactus under cold water. In a skillet, add the cactus and a splash of olive oil. Sauté over medium heat for about 5-7 minutes until tender.

4. 4

   Make the BBQ Sauce

   In a saucepan, combine apple cider vinegar, beef broth, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and salt. Simmer over low heat for about 15 minutes.

5. 5

   Serving the Brisket

   Once the brisket is done, let it rest for 30 minutes. Slice against the grain and serve with the sautéed cactus, fresh cilantro, and lime wedges.
