Prepare the Dry Rub

In a bowl, mix together paprika, brown sugar, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, salt, and cayenne pepper until well combined.

Place the brisket fat side up in the smoker and add the soaked wood chips. Smoke for about 1 to 1.5 hours per pound, or until the internal temperature reaches 195°F to 205°F (90°C to 96°C).
