Best of the Border Barbecue Brisket Recipe
Ingredients
9- to 10-pound brisket
5 tablespoons Best of the Border Dry Rub
1/4 cup full-flavor beer
Barbecue sauce (your choice)
Instructions
Preheat barbecue pit to 250 degrees F. Cut off fat wedge near large end of brisket, then pat dry rub evenly over met. Place brisket in barbecue pit, fat-side up, and cook at 250 to 275 degrees for 4 hours.
Remove meat from pit. Make a foil bag large enough to hold brisket from extra-heavy-duty foil, leaving one side open. Put meat in bag and add beer. Seal all edges of foil well.
Return brisket in bag to the pit. Raise temperature to 300 degrees. Let pit cook back down to 225 to 250 degrees and cook another 3 hours. Remove brisket form pit, top with favorite barbecue sauce, slice, and serve.
Serves 16 to 20
