How To Make Brisket on a Big Green Egg | Big Green Egg Brisket

beef brisket

🥗Healthier: lean cuts of beef

💰Cheaper: pork shoulder

Pork shoulder is often less expensive and can be cooked similarly.

Trim the brisket, removing excess fat to about a 1/4 inch fat cap.

Apply dubby sauce as a binder to help the rub stick.

Season the brisket liberally with a brisket rub, covering all sides.

Preheat the Big Green Egg to 250°F.

Place the brisket on the Big Green Egg and smoke it until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.

Wrap the brisket in butcher paper to retain moisture.

Continue cooking the wrapped brisket until it reaches an internal temperature of 203°F, or until the probe slides in easily.

Let the brisket rest in a cooler before slicing.
