Preparation Steps
Prepare the Burnt Ends
Preheat your smoker or oven to 225°F (107°C).
Trim excess fat from the brisket and cut it into 1-inch cubes.
In a bowl, mix brown sugar, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and salt.
Rub the spice mixture all over the brisket cubes.
Place the cubes in the smoker or oven and cook for 4-5 hours until tender.
Remove the brisket from the heat and toss with BBQ sauce.
Return the sauced brisket to the smoker or oven for another 1-2 hours until caramelized.
Mix until just combined and pour into a greased baking dish.
Bake in the oven at 400°F (200°C) for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.
