    List of Ingredients




    1 (5 to 6-pound) brisket, trimmed but left with a layer of fat about 1/4- inch thick
    6 tablespoons House Seasoning, recipe follows
    3 tablespoons chili powder
    1 1/2 teaspoons brown sugar
    1 1/2 teaspoons onion powder
    1 teaspoon dried oregano
    1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
    6 cups hickory wood chips, soaked in water for 30 minutes

    House Seasoning:
    1 cup salt
    1/4 cup black pepper
    1/4 cup garlic powder
    Mix ingredients together and store in an airtight container for up to 6 months.
    Yield: 1 1/2 cups

    Recipe



    Rinse brisket thoroughly under cold water and pat dry with paper towels. In a small bowl, mix together House Seasoning, chili powder, brown sugar, onion powder, oregano and cayenne. Rub brisket with the rub on all sides.

    Follow directions on your grill/smoker for indirect grilling. Place the soaked chips into the chip box, or make a pouch with tin foil for the chips, then place pouch directly on the coals. Place brisket fat side up in a large disposable aluminum pan and place in the center of the grate and cover the grill. Slow grill the brisket until tender and an instant-read thermometer inserted in the center of the meat reads about 190 degrees F, about 6 hours. Add coals and wood chips as necessary to maintain a constant temperature. Transfer the brisket to a cutting board to rest for about 10 minutes. Slice the brisket across the grain and serve.
