Ingredients

1 (6 to 8-pound) beef brisket

1 cup seasoning rub (recommended: Butch's Smack Your Lips Magic Dust)

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven or smoker to 225 degrees F.
  2. Trim the fat evenly across the top to 1/4-inch thick. Season the brisket liberally with the seasoning rub. Cook in the oven or smoker until the internal temperature on an instant- read meat thermometer reaches 175 degrees F, about 6 to 8 hours. Remove the meat from the oven or smoker and wrap in a double layer of aluminum foil to seal in the juices. Turn the foiled meat upside down and place it back in the oven or smoker for 1 more hour. Remove and let the meat rest for 20 minutes. Slice in 1/4-inch thick slices.
  3. Serve with jalapeno peppers and/or onions on a bun or in a soft flour tortilla shell with fajita seasoning and sauce.
  4. Enjoy!

I use a smaller brisket 3 to 4 lb. and reduce and tweek the recipe with what I had in the house. I use 4 to 6 cloves garlic 1/2 cup splenda brown sugar, 2 oz of paprika, and 1 oz of the rest. I use the Huey's Rub that is not too overpowering for my husband. I like it hot, but he does not. The key is in the slow roasting and then I throw it on the grill for about 1/2 hour to seal and caramelize the rub.
