Brisket

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Brisket

    Rub the brisket with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika. Drizzle with olive oil and let it marinate for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Smoke the Brisket

    Preheat your smoker to 225°F (107°C). Place the brisket in the smoker and cook for about 4-5 hours, or until the internal temperature reaches 195°F (90°C).

  3. 3

    Rest the Brisket

    Remove the brisket from the smoker and let it rest for at least 20 minutes before slicing.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Sandwich

    Slice the brisket into thin pieces. Place the brisket on the sandwich roll, add BBQ sauce, pickles, and coleslaw.
