Barbeque Brisket
If you like hot and spicy, this
barbeque brisket is the one for you! Typical Southwestern seasonings flavor the meat, while powdered chipotle peppers add heat and smoky flavor.
Grill over medium low direct heat for the first three hours. This will give the outer surface a nice crust, or bark. It'll also provide that semi-charred grilled flavor that goes so well with brisket.
Grilled Brisket Recipe
This recipe requires a spicy brisket rub, made with great flavors. Makes enough rub for one whole 10 pound brisket.
Ingredients
One quarter cup onion powder
Two tablespoons powdered chipotle peppers
One tablespoon black pepper
One tablespoon oregano
One teaspoon cumin
One teaspoon garlic powder
One-half teaspoon nutmeg
Combine the ingredients, then rub onto the brisket, all sides. Place the brisket on your covered gas or charcoal grill. Watch the underside of the brisket closely. If it begins to burn, flip it over. Figure on turning it once every half hour for four hours. Baste with beer every time it's turned.
After four hours, wrap the brisket in a double layer of heavy duty foil, inserting a remote thermometer probe into the meat. Place the brisket back onto the grill and cover. When the temperature reaches 205 degrees, your brisket will be melt in your mouth tender. Allow the barbecued brisket to rest for 30 minutes before serving. Slice across the grain to serve.
