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.

SLOW-COOKED TEXAS BEER BRISKET

Steps:

• Grilling Method: Indirect/Medium-Low Heat
• Sprinkle brisket liberally with the rub of your choice.
• Set-up grill for indirect cooking and place smoker box in gas grill if using. If using a charcoal grill, pour beer into a drip pan and place the drip pan on the charcoal grate between the two piles of charcoal. If using a gas grill, pour the beer into a small drip pan and put on the far-left corner of the cooking grates. (The beer is in the pan to add moisture to the cooking environment while the meat smokes. This is a good idea anytime you smoke-cook foods for a long period of time because smoke reduces the moisture in the air.)
• Place wood chips that have been soaked in water for 30 minutes directly on the gray-ashed charcoal, if using a charcoal grill, or in the smoker box if using a gas grill.
• Place brisket (fat side up) in center of the cooking grate over the drip pan. You will not turn the brisket during the cooking time at all. Grill 5 to 7 hours or until meat thermometer registers 180°F. When done, remove brisket from grill and let rest 20 minutes. Slice thin and serve immediately with pickled okra and sliced white bread.
