Method
Preparation
Season the Brisket
Rub the brisket with salt and black pepper evenly on all sides. Allow it to sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes.
Cooking
Cube the Brisket
Once the brisket is done, remove it from the smoker and let it rest for at least 30 minutes. Cube the brisket into 1-inch pieces.
Toss with Sauce
In a large bowl, mix BBQ sauce, apple cider vinegar, and honey. Add the cubed brisket and stir until well coated.
Return to the Smoker
Return the sauced brisket cubes to the smoker at 275°F (135°C) for an additional 1-2 hours, until the edges are caramelized and crispy.
Serving
Serve
Remove the burnt ends from the smoker, let them cool slightly, and serve warm. Top with chopped green onions and pickles if desired.
