Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation and Cooking

1

Prepare the Beef

Trim excess fat from the beef brisket, leaving about 1/4 inch of fat for flavor.

2

Apply the Rub

Generously coat the brisket with the beef rub, ensuring all sides are covered. Let it sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes to absorb the flavors.

3

Prepare the Smoker

Soak the wood chips in water for at least 30 minutes. Preheat the smoker to 225°F (107°C).

4

Add Wood Chips

Drain the wood chips and add them to the smoker box or directly onto the coals. This will create smoke for flavor.

5

Smoke the Brisket

Place the brisket in the smoker fat side up. Close the lid and smoke for about 1.5 hours per pound, or until the internal temperature reaches 195°F (90°C).

6

Spritz with Apple Juice

Every hour, spritz the brisket with apple juice to keep it moist and flavorful.

7

Rest the Brisket

Once the brisket is done, remove it from the smoker and wrap it in foil. Let it rest for at least 30 minutes before slicing.

8

Slice and Serve

Slice the brisket against the grain into thin slices and serve warm.
