BBQ Corned Beef Brisket

This BBQ twist will turn a traditional corned beef brisket into a tasty, smoky treat. It's a favorite at barbecues because the dry rub and BBQ glaze make the perfect balance of sweet and savory.

Ingredients:

• 1 whole corned beef brisket 4-5 lbs
• 1/4 cup brown sugar
• 2 tablespoons black pepper
• 2 tablespoons paprika
• 1 tablespoon garlic powder
• 1 tablespoon onion powder
• 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• 1 cup BBQ sauce

Instructions:

Preheat your smoker to 225F 107C

Remove the corned beef brisket from the packaging and rinse it under cold water

Pat it dry with paper towels

In a small bowl, mix brown sugar, black pepper, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and cayenne pepper to create a dry rub

Rub the spice mixture generously over the entire surface of the brisket, covering it evenly

Place the brisket in the smoker and smoke for about 4-6 hours, or until the internal temperature reaches 200F 93C

During the last hour of smoking, brush the brisket with BBQ sauce every 20 minutes for a flavorful glaze

Once done, remove the brisket from the smoker and let it rest for 15-20 minutes before slicing

Slice the brisket against the grain and serve with additional BBQ sauce on the side
