Instructions

                                                                                            • Step 1: Allow brisket to reach room temperature.
                                                                                              • Step 2: Preheat your Z Grills pellet smoker to 300 °F.
                                                                                              • Step 3: Mix salt and pepper. Apply brisket rub liberally and evenly on all sides of the brisket to evenly distribute the flavor.
                                                                                              • Step 4: Place brisket fat side down on the grates. Close the lid and cook for 2 hours.
                                                                                              • Step 5: Remove brisket from the smoker and place in a double layer of foil.
                                                                                              • Step 6: Spritz the brisket with a little bit of apple cider vinegar and tightly wrap it with the foil.
                                                                                              • Step 7: Place it back on the smoker, and cook for about 3 more hours, or until internal temperature of the brisket reaches 203 °F.
                                                                                              • Step 8: Once the brisket reaches 203 °F, remove it from the smoker. Open the foil slightly to allow it to vent for about 5 minutes.
                                                                                              • Step 9: Seal the foil and allow the brisket to rest for 45 minutes.
                                                                                              • Step 10: Unpack the brisket. Slice against the grain and serve.
