Pit Boss Beef Brisket Recipe

Ginna Tobin
The best way to cook brisket on a Pit Boss smoker is by slow smoking it at 225°F. Start by trimming the brisket, seasoning it generously, and letting it absorb the flavors before smoking. Spraying it with beef broth and wrapping it in butcher paper ensures a juicy and flavorful brisket.

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup beef broth
  • 1 10-12 pound brisket
  • 1 bottle Pit Boss Sweet Rib Rub

Instructions
 

  • Place the brisket on a cutting board and use a sharp knife to remove any silver skin or excess fat. On the flat muscle, trim the crescent-shaped fat section until smooth. Flip the brisket over and trim the fat cap to ¼ inch thick. Slice between the point and flat, saving the flat for later.
  • Generously coat all sides of the trimmed brisket point with Pit Boss Sweet Rib Rub. Let the brisket sit for 30 minutes to absorb the flavors. Pour beef broth into a spray bottle and set it aside.
  • Preheat your Pit Boss smoker or pellet grill to 225°F. Place the brisket on the grill grates and insert a meat thermometer if you have one.
  • Smoke the brisket for 6-8 hours, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F. Every 2 hours, spray the brisket with beef broth to keep it moist.
  • Once the brisket reaches 165°F, remove it from the smoker. Wrap it tightly in peach butcher paper, ensuring a leak-proof seal. Return the brisket to the smoker, seam-side down, and continue smoking for another 3-4 hours, or until it reaches 200°F.
  • Remove the brisket from the smoker and let it rest for at least 1 hour before slicing. Slice against the grain and enjoy the most tender, smoky, and juicy brisket!
