Texas beef brisket is a flavorful and tender cut of meat that is essential for achieving the perfect BBQ experience.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 whole beef brisket (10–12 pounds)
  • 2 tablespoons kosher salt
  • 2 tablespoons black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon garlic powder
  • 1 tablespoon onion powder
  • 1 tablespoon smoked paprika
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • Wood chips for smoking (hickory or oak)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your smoker to 225°F (107°C).
  2. Trim excess fat from the brisket, leaving about 1/4 inch of fat on one side.
  3. In a bowl, mix together the kosher salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and smoked paprika.
  4. Rub the spice mixture all over the brisket, ensuring it is evenly coated.
  5. Place the brisket in the smoker, fat side up, and add wood chips for smoke flavor.
  6. Smoke the brisket for about 1.5 hours per pound, or until it reaches an internal temperature of 195°F (90°C).
  7. Every hour, spritz the brisket with beef broth to keep it moist.
  8. Once done, remove the brisket from the smoker and let it rest for at least 30 minutes before slicing.

Notes

  • For best results, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature.
  • Letting the brisket rest is crucial for juicy slices.
  • Experiment with different wood chips for varying smoke flavors.
