Texas Style Dry Rub Recipes

THE BEST TEXAS BRISKET RUB

Steps:

• Firstly, you're going to pick your brisket. Emphasis on PICK.
• The three options for good meat is Prime, Choice, and Select.
• It's good to remember that, depending on the fat to meat ratio, the brisket will shrink some during cooking.
• Try to opt for beef briskets that are well marbled, so the flavor and juices from the melting fat absorbs evenly.
• You won't have to hassle with uneven chops, and the raw fat will keep the meat moist.
• Choose your dry rub ingredients from the selection above - Texas-Style, Traditional, or Chuck Wagon.
• Mix the ingredients together in a plastic container or a medium bowl​ (each recipe is suitable for a brisket between 5-10 lbs.)
• Scatter the mixture over the meat, using a spatula to pack into the meat. Cooking time may vary.
• While not ideal for rugged meats, it comes in handy for those rainy days you didn't bank on, when you've got your meat thawed and in danger of spoiling.
• Begin with a 350 degree oven, and cook time until your meat is savory and brown.
• Safely wrap your brisket in foil, and stow away in a 150 degree oven or roaster until ready to serve.

• Once the grill is nice and hot, place the steak(s) on and cook for 4-5 minutes, until it's browned and slightly charred. Flip it over and cook for the following additional time:
