DRY RUB BEEF BRISKET

Spicy and smoky beef brisket. My version has no BBQ sauce added. Keep the dish tightly covered during cooking and don't peek. This prevents the brisket from drying out. If you use a larger or smaller brisket, adjust the cooking time to 1 hour per pound. Cut the brisket against the grain with a sharp knife, or it will be stringy.

For the rub and brisket:
3 tablespoons ground coffee
1 tablespoon coarse salt
1 tablespoon dark brown sugar
2 teaspoons paprika
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
1/2 teaspoon cocoa powder
1 center-cut beef brisket
6 to 8 bacon slices
For the mop sauce:
1 cup red wine

Categories     < 15 Mins

Time 5m

Yield 10 Tablespoons

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 1/2 tablespoons dark brown sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons dried sweet basil leaves
1/8 teaspoon ground cumin
3/4 teaspoon ground coriander
3/4 teaspoon ground savory
3/4 teaspoon dried thyme
3/4 teaspoon black pepper
3/4 teaspoon white pepper
2 tablespoons paprika
2 teaspoons dry mustard
2 teaspoons onion powder
2 teaspoons garlic powder
2 teaspoons salt

Steps:

  • Mix ingredients together and place in a shaker if you have one.
  • Sprinkle liberally over a 5-6 pound brisket and wrap tightly in plastic.
  • Refrigerate at least overnight, until cooking time.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of beef brisket: Look for a brisket that is well-marbled with fat throughout, as this will help keep it moist during the long cooking process.
  • Trim the brisket: Remove any excess fat from the brisket before cooking, as this will help the rub adhere better and prevent the meat from becoming too greasy.
  • Use a generous amount of rub: Apply a generous coating of rub to the brisket, making sure to get into all the nooks and crannies. This will help create a flavorful crust on the outside of the meat.
  • Cook the brisket low and slow: Brisket is a tough cut of meat that requires a long, slow cooking process in order to become tender. Cook the brisket at a low temperature (around 225 degrees Fahrenheit) for at least 8 hours, or until the meat is fork-tender.
  • Let the brisket rest before slicing: Once the brisket is cooked, let it rest for at least 30 minutes before slicing. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the meat, making it more tender and flavorful.

Conclusion:

Beef brisket is a delicious and versatile cut of meat that can be cooked in a variety of ways. Whether you choose to smoke it, braise it, or slow-cook it, following these tips will help you create a flavorful and tender brisket that your family and friends will love.
