Ingredients
- 1 .5 lb pork brisket boneless, trimmed of excess fat
- kosher salt
- 1 cup yellow mustard
- 1 cup pork rub
- ½ cup apple cider vinegar
- Carolina mustard sauce for serving
Instructions
- Prepare your smoker with wood chips and place a pan of water on the bottom rack.
- Sprinkle salt all over the brisket. Place on a baking sheet and chill for at least one hour, or overnight. (No need to cover the brisket.)
- Smear yellow mustard all over the brisket and then liberally sprinkle on the pork rub. In a spritzer bottle, combine the apple cider vinegar with ½ cup water.
- Smoke the brisket, fat side up, until an internal temperature reaches 165°F, usually about 3 hours. Spray the brisket with the apple cider vinegar mixture once an hour.
- Remove the brisket from the smoker and wrap it in butcher paper.
- Return the wrapped brisket to the smoker and cook until an internal temperature reaches 190°F.
- Remove the brisket from the smoker and place it in a cooler (still in the wrapper) that has been lined with a clean towel. Wrap the towel over the brisket and close the cooler for 1 to 2 hours.
- Remove the brisket from the cooler and take off the butcher paper. Use a sharp knife to cut into slices.
- Serve at once with Carolina mustard sauce on the side (if desired).

Notes
- NOTE: Watch the video near the top of the recipe for visual guidance.
- NOTE:
- The rub can be made up to 3 weeks in advance. The Carolina mustard sauce can be made up to 1 week in advance.
- The mustard acts only as a binder for the rub, it does not impart a mustard taste at all.
- To wrap the brisket, place it in the middle of a rectangular piece of butcher paper, closest to you. Wrap the sides in over the brisket, and then gently turn the brisket over, like a present, until it is covered. See the video for reference.
- Leftovers will keep covered in the fridge for 5 to 6 days. Wrap in foil and heat in a low-temp oven (250°F) until heated through, about 15 to 20 minutes. Or, nuke briefly in the microwave.
