Cooking Instructions
Prepare the Brisket
Trim excess fat from the brisket, leaving about 1/4 inch of fat for flavor. Rub the beef rub evenly over the brisket, ensuring all sides are coated.
Rest the Brisket
Remove the brisket from the smoker and wrap it in butcher paper or aluminum foil. Let it rest for at least 30 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.
Cube the Brisket
Once rested, cut the brisket into 1-inch cubes, ensuring to include some of the burnt edges for that crispy flavor.
Glaze the Burnt Ends
In a bowl, mix together your favorite BBQ sauce with a bit of honey or brown sugar. Toss the brisket cubes in the glaze until evenly coated.
