Instructions

Let the brisket sit at room temperature for about one hour before smoking.
Pat the brisket dry using paper towels.
Drizzle the olive oil over the brisket, ensuring all sides are coated.
In a bowl, mix together the brown sugar, granulated garlic, onion powder, green chile powder, dried thyme, smoked paprika, kosher salt, black pepper, and dry mustard.
Generously apply the spice rub all over the brisket.
Using a sharp knife, pierce the brisket all over, pushing the olive oil and rub deep into the meat.
Prepare your grill or smoker to a temperature of about 325°F, using hickory or oak chunks for flavor.
Place the brisket fat side down on the grill, keeping the lid closed. Maintain the cooking temperature between 300°F and 325°F.
Cook the brisket until its internal temperature exceeds 200°F, which should take about 5-6 hours.
If the brisket appears to be drying out, you can wrap it in peach butcher paper or heavy foil once it reaches about 165°F-170°F to continue cooking.
Remove the brisket from the grill and allow it to rest for one hour before slicing.

Notes

For the best results, use high-quality brisket and season generously with spice rub.
Allow the brisket to rest properly to ensure juicy slices.
Experiment with different wood types for smoking to customize flavor.
