Cooking Instructions

1

Prepare the Brisket

Trim excess fat from the brisket and cut it into 1-inch cubes.

2

Season the Meat

In a bowl, combine salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Rub the spice mixture evenly over the brisket cubes.

3

Smoke the Brisket

Preheat your smoker to 225°F (107°C). Place the seasoned brisket cubes in the smoker and smoke for about 6-8 hours, or until they become tender.

4

Mix the Sauce

In a separate bowl, mix together BBQ sauce, brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, and honey.

5

Sauce the Burnt Ends

Once the brisket cubes are tender, remove them from the smoker. Toss them in the prepared BBQ sauce mixture.

6

Finish Cooking

Return the sauced brisket cubes to the smoker and cook for an additional 1-2 hours, until they caramelize and develop a nice glaze.

7

Serve

Remove the burnt ends from the smoker, let them rest for a few minutes, and serve warm.
