Ingredients
Brisket
- 4 tablespoons coarse kosher salt
- 4 tablespoons coarse ground black pepper
- 2 teaspoons ground cumin
- 1 whole packer brisket 12 to 14 pounds, fat cap trimmed to 1/4 inch
Sauce
- 1 cup Kraft BBQ sauce
- 1/2 cup water
- 1/2 cup tomato sauce
- 2 teaspoons chili powder
- 1/2 teaspoon cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon Coriander
- 2 teaspoons Tabasco Chipotle Sauce
Instructions
- Combine the salt, ground black pepper, and cumin in a small bowl and mix well.
- Apply the seasoning mixture liberally to all sides of the brisket, patting it in to ensure good adhesion.
- Preheat your pellet grill to 225°F. Choose a hardwood pellet like oak, hickory, or a blend.
- Place the brisket on the grill fat side up. Insert a meat probe if available. Smoke for approximately 6 to 8 hours until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
- Wrap the brisket tightly in butcher paper or foil. Continue cooking until the internal temperature reaches 200°F to 205°F and the probe slides in like butter, typically another 4 to 6 hours.
- Remove from grill and let rest in an insulated cooler or wrapped in towels for 1 to 2 hours minimum.
- Cut the brisket into 1/4-inch slices. Cook the slices in a stainless steel skillet over medium heat until they begin to brown, about 1 to 2 minutes per side.
- Chop brisket slices into 1/4-inch pieces and place in a bowl with just enough sauce to moisten the brisket.
