Method
Beef Brisket
Prepare the Brisket
Preheat your smoker to 225°F (107°C). Rub the brisket with smoked paprika, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Place it in the smoker and cook for about 1.5 hours per pound.
Add Liquid Smoke
During the last hour of cooking, baste the brisket with a mixture of beef broth and liquid smoke.
Rest the Brisket
Once cooked, remove the brisket from the smoker and let it rest for at least 30 minutes before slicing.
Mashed Sweet Potatoes
Cook the Sweet Potatoes
Peel and chop the sweet potatoes. Boil them in salted water until tender, about 20 minutes.
Mash and Season
Drain the sweet potatoes and return them to the pot. Add butter, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Mash until smooth and creamy.
Summer Squash Succotash
Sauté Vegetables
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add zucchini, yellow squash, corn, and chopped red bell pepper. Sauté for about 10 minutes until tender.
Season and Serve
Season with salt, black pepper, and fresh parsley. Stir to combine and serve warm.
