Instructions

                                                                                            • Step 1: Preheat your Z Grills pellet smoker to 225°F.
                                                                                              • Step 2: Use a sharp knife to trim excess fat from the brisket (You may substitute brisket flat or point for whole brisket).
                                                                                              • Step 3: In a small bowl, combine garlic, paprika, pepper, and salt. Sprinkle and press evenly into beef Brisket on all sides and edges.
                                                                                              • Step 4: Place brisket on the grill. Smoke the brisket for 3 hours.
                                                                                              • Step 5: After 3 hours, remove the brisket from the grill and wrap it in foil.
                                                                                              • Step 6: Continue smoking the brisket until the internal temperature reaches 195°F for brisket that slices easily. This may take about another 8 hours. For brisket that can be shredded or chunked, smoke the brisket when the internal temperature reaches 205°F.
